Proper installation and commissioning are critical to maximizing the performance and service life of the AC Variable Frequency Inverter for Motor Control. Deyan Electric provides clear documentation and remote support to ensure a smooth startup process, whether you are a first-time user or an experienced system integrator.
1. Mechanical installation
Mount the inverter vertically on a non-flammable, vibration-free surface. Ensure sufficient clearance (at least 100mm top and bottom) for air circulation. The ambient temperature should not exceed 40°C for continuous full-load operation; above that, derate the output current by 2.5% per °C up to 50°C.
2. Power and motor wiring
Use appropriately sized cables for the input and output terminals. Connect the three-phase input supply to R, S, T terminals and the motor to U, V, W. Ground the PE terminal securely. For motor cable lengths exceeding 50 meters, we recommend installing an output reactor to reduce voltage reflection and protect motor insulation.
3. Control terminal wiring
The six digital inputs and two analog inputs are optically isolated and accept dry contact or NPN/PNP signals. Use shielded twisted-pair cables for analog signals and keep them away from power cables to avoid interference. The RS485 terminals (A+, B-) should be daisy-chained with a 120Ω termination resistor at both ends of the network.
4. Key commissioning steps
After power-on, first set the motor nameplate parameters (rated voltage, current, frequency, speed) in the drive. Then perform a self-tuning (static or rotating) to optimize the motor model. Next, select the appropriate V/F curve and set acceleration/deceleration times based on the load inertia. Finally, test the drive in local and remote modes to verify all command sources and feedback signals.
5. Common troubleshooting tips
If the drive trips on over-current during acceleration, increase the acceleration time or enable the auto-stall protection. If motor vibration occurs, adjust the carrier frequency or enable the slip compensation. The built-in fault log stores the last five fault records with time stamps, aiding quick diagnosis.
Deyan Electric provides a comprehensive user manual with wiring diagrams, parameter tables, and fault codes. Our technical support team is available for remote commissioning assistance via video call, ensuring your inverter is up and running with minimal downtime.

4. Selection guide by load type and power
To simplify your choice, we categorize the inverter into G-type (heavy-duty, constant torque) and P-type (light-duty, variable torque). For G-type, select the inverter whose rated current is at least 1.1 times the motor full-load current. For P-type, the inverter can be one frame size smaller due to the lower overload requirement. Our online selection tool or technical team can recommend the optimal model based on your motor nameplate data and application duty cycle.
5. Sample testing and validation
Before placing a large order, we encourage customers to request a sample unit for side-by-side testing with their existing motor and control system. We provide free technical support during the evaluation phase and can adjust parameter defaults based on your test feedback.
