Introducing the New Global Standard: 3-Level Control
Inverters that pursue high performance and ease of use in consideration of the usage environment around the world can meet high technical demands with high performance and high functionality.
In the 400 V class, the 3-level control method is adopted for the general-purpose inverter for the first time in the world, the problem of microsurge voltage is solved, and it can be used safely for existing motors.
This innovative drive utilizes 3 level control to offer the best solution for challenging installations. Yaskawa is the only manufacturer to offer a low voltage drive with this architecture. 3 level technology minimizes drive induced problems associated with long motor cables and premature motor bearing failures. In addition, overall electrical noise is greatly reduced, resulting in the most problem free installations.

The solution to 400V class AC Drive problems
The first 400V class general-purpose AC Drive in the world to use the 3-level control method, to approach
sine wave output voltage. It provides the solution to problems like motor insulation damage due to surge
voltage, and electrolytic corrosion of motor bearings due to shaft voltage. Existing general-purpose motors
can be used even without surge suppression filters. The noise and leakage current are greatly reduced (halvedin in-house comparison).
Features of the 3-level control method
- Low surge voltage – Suppresses surge voltage to the motor, eliminating the need for surge voltage protection for the motor.
- Low electrical noise – Significantly reduces conduction (power supply) noise and radiated noise caused by AC Drives, minimizing effects on peripheral devices.
- Low acoustic noise – Provides low acoustic noise, difficult to achieve with conventional designs.
