By decreasing the carrier frequency, the noise
terminal voltage* can be reduced. Use Pr. 72 to set
the carrier frequency to a low value (1kHz).
Though motor noise increases at a low carrier
frequency, selection of Soft-PWM in Pr. 240 will
make it unoffending.

Noise frequency (MHz)
By decreasing the carrier frequency, noise will be
about as low as that of our conventional FR-Z200
series.
By using shielded cables as signal cables, induction
noise can be reduced greatly (to 1/10 - 1/100).
Induction noise can also be reduced by moving the
signal cables away from the inverter output cables.
(Separation of 30cm (11.81inches) reduces noise to
1/2-1/3.)
By fitting the FR-BSF01 or BLF on the inverter
output side, induction noise to the signal cables can
be reduced.
