Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Does this drive include braking capability?

• A: No. The VFD900C43A-00 does not have a built-in braking chopper. For applications requiring fast stopping, you must install an external braking unit and resistor.

Q: What does the built-in DC reactor do?

• A: The DC reactor reduces harmonic distortion on the power line. It improves the input power factor and protects the drive from power line disturbances.

Q: Is this drive suitable for outdoor use?

• A: No. With an IP00 rating, it has no protection against dust or water. It must be installed inside a protective electrical enclosure rated for your environment.
