Purpose
This product is not designed for use in appliances and machinery on which lives depend. Consult your Fuji
Electric representative before considering the FRENIC-MEGA series of inverters for equipment and machinery
related to nuclear power control, aerospace uses, medical uses or transportation. When the product is to be
used with any machinery or equipment on which lives depend or with machinery or equipment which could
cause serious loss or damage should this product malfunction or fail, ensure that appropriate safety devices
and/or equipment are installed.
• The FRENIC-MEGA is designed to drive three-phase induction motors only. It cannot be used to drive
single-phase motors and/or for any other purposes.
Otherwise, a fire could occur.
• The FRENIC-MEGA cannot be used for a purpose where human accidents may be directly concerned (e.g.,
a life support system) without necessary modification.
• Although this product is manufactured under strict quality control, be sure to provide safety measures when
using it in facilities where its failure may cause a serious accident or loss.
Otherwise, an accident could occur.
Installation
• Install the inverter on an uninflammable object.
• Do not install the inverter near an inflammable object.
Otherwise, a fire could occur.
• The enclosure of an inverter of 30 kW or more conforms to IP00 and may touch the terminal block of the
main circuit (where electricity exists). It is also true when the optional DC reactor is used. In such cases take
a measure to prevent a person from easily touching the inverter.
Otherwise, an electric shock or injury could occur.
