Generation 7 ACDrives 1/8 to 500 HP

Yaskawa’s Industrial AC Drives

incorporate the latest technological advancements in AC induction motor speed control, made possible by experience(100 years of AC motor design, 50 years of ACdrive design) and dedication to quality in design and manufacturing (Yaskawa is the only drives manufacturer in theworld to receive the Deming Quality award). These adjustable frequency ACdrives are designed for industrial automation applications. Typically, they are capableof the popular network communications, supported by software tools for parameter management, able to accept customer-specific or application-specific softwareand are supported globally by Yaskawa’s network of service and sales centers.

F7 (1/2 to 500 HP)

The F7 Drive is the Industrial Workhorse that can handle every conventionalapplication found within the typical industrial plant, from the simple conveyor to sophisticated networked packaging. All of this is possible with the smart and flexible design platform of the F7, providing both Normal and Heavy Duty ratings, three modes of control, network communication options, application- specific drive software, and an array of standard and optional input/output devices.

P7 (5 to 500 HP)

The P7 Drive is the choice for industrial variable torque applications such as centrifugal fans and pumps. The drive has Normal Duty ratings with nominal 110% for 60 seconds overload capability. Network communication options and an array of input/output devices are available for installation flexibility. The P7 drive is available with optional bypass control and other fan/pump options.

G7 (1/2 to 500 HP)

The G7 drive is the total solution for the unconventional, extreme performance applications. With high-end response for speed and torque loops, the G7 provides servo-like performance for superior motor control. The drive has the latest in auto-tuning methods featuring both static and rotational methods for easy commissioning of any motor. The G7 drive has the world’s first 480V 3- level power section architecture offering total system protection. The 3-level control eliminates peripheral components typically required to solve installation problems such as long motor cable leads, motor bearing life, audible noise, and common mode noise. The G7 has an optional programming feature calledDriveWorksEZ™, a PC-based, object-oriented, graphical icon, programming tool.

V7 (1/8 to 10 HP)

The V7 is a general purpose microdrive combining compact size with exceptional flexibility and performance. The V7 provides two control methods: V/f and open loop vector control. Open loop vector control provides precise speed regulation and higher torque at lower speeds. The V7 has multiple network communication options and custom application software available.
