FRENIC VG Fuji Electric

FRENIC VG Fuji Electric, Fuji has concentrated its technologies to deliver the best-performing inverter on the market. In addition to basic performance, this model features the following dramatic improvements:

support for previously difficult applications due to technical and capability limitations, user-friendly maintenance, and environmental friendliness and safety. It has a built-in converter (rectifier) and control circuit, an external DC reactor as standard for 75kW or higher capacities, and allows for easier arrangements for small scale systems. The converter and invertor sections are separately set in this type. Large capacity systems with low maintenance are easily built. The converters can be used in both situations where no power regeneration is required or where it is required along with harmonic control.

FRENIC VG Fuji Electric (Fuji Drive and Automation)- Ratings for intended use

FRENIC VG fuji Electric operation mode for the motor is selected according to the motor load conditions. Motors larger by one or two frames can be driven with medium load (MD) and light load (LD) use.

A standard built-in brake circuit with an expanded capacity range

Having a standard built-in brake circuit (with 200V 55kW or less and 400V 160KW or less), is useful when applying the inverter to the vertical transfer machine, which is frequently used under the regenerative load.
* Unit type only

High-speed, high-accuracy position control realized (servo function)

  • Built-in position control function as standard with pulse train input (A separate option (OPC-VG1-PG(PR)) is required for pulse train input.)
  • High-speed, high-accuracy position control is possible in combination with an E-SX bus and 17-bit high-resolution ABS encoder.
    (The servo function is supported with a dedicated type.) (Soon to be supported)

A control method of FRENIC VG Fuji Electric

Not only the induction motors but also the synchronous motors can be driven, and for the induction motors, you can select the most suitable control method according to your individual needs.

Target motors Control method
Induction motor ・Vector control with speed sensor

Dedicated design for panel installation (Stack Type)

Panel size reduction realized

The use of a stack type designed specifically for panel installation has resulted in a reduced panel size compared with the conventional design. A 34% reduction in panel width has been achieved over the conventional design (for example for the crane system).
The dedicated design has also resulted in the easier installation of products into the panel and easier replacement.

690V Series Inverter Stack Capacity Expansion Through Adoption of SiC Hybrid Module (355 /400/450kW)

Adoption of a next-generation device (SiC-SBD)

Fuji handles all processes from new development to production from the device level and has realized an optimized SiC module design tailored to stacks. This has resulted in a 28% reduction in generated loss, facilitated a reduction in stack size, and allowed capacity to be expanded.

Compact size and capacity expansion through the adoption of SiC hybrid module

Through the adoption of a SiC hybrid module, the generated loss has been reduced by 28%, and stack single unit capacity has been expanded to 450kW while ensuring the same dimensions as stacks in the 250 to 315kW capacity range. (Stack width: 226.2 mm)

Dimensions and capacity comparison

Single unit capacity 315kW 450kW
Stack width 226.2mm
Capacity 0.18m3

Use of a “single” 450kW system configuration realized with SiC hybrid module application

Also compatible with fan, and pump applications of FRENIC VG fuji Electric

Applicable for even large-scale systems with dedicated fan and pump functions and a broad capacity range [Soon to be supported]
  • Forced operation (Fire Mode)
    The inverter protection function is ignored (retry), allowing an operation to be continued. This allows fans and pumps to continue running as much as possible in times of emergency such as when there is a fire.
  • Command loss detection function
    If analog speed setting signals are interrupted, operation continues at the speed set with a function code.
  • Low water quantity stop function
    The inverter can be stopped if the pump discharge pressure rises and discharged water quantity drops.
  • Broad capacity range
    Capacity expansion is easy with the parallel operation (direct parallel connection).

*1 The capacity expansion value indicates the nominal applied motor capacity.
*2 Capacity expansion applies to the direct parallel connection system. Up to three inverters can be connected in parallel.

Support for ultrahigh-speed E-SX bus

A PLC (MICREX-SX Series: SPH3000MM) and FRENIC VG fuji Electric can be connected with the ultrahigh-speed communication E-SX bus.
With ultrahigh-speed communication, support is possible for even faster, more accurate devices.
