Hitachi's unique J100 inverter combined the latest technology to create the world's first flux vector inverter drive to offer accurate yet sensorless control of just about any AC motor. But the Hitachi J100 inverter was not only revolutionary in its operation, it was also the smallest VSD variable frequency drive of its type. Some times incorrectly referred to as the J100-IGBT, as it proudly states on the cover that it is an IGBT inverter.
Designed for ease of operation, the Hitachi J100 inverter can be programmed via a few simple keystrokes on the clear operator's 5-key pad. A large LED display indicates settings. Alternatively, the J100 can be operated remotely using Hitachi's remote operator (DOP) or copy unit (DRW), both of which are also compatible with the J100's bigger sister, Hitachi's J300 series inverter.
The functions of the Hitachi J100 inverter can be expanded to match customer requirements exactly. Simple software modifications can give, for example, acceleration times from 0.1 to 2999.9 seconds, frequencies from 0.5 to 400Hz, dynamic braking times from 0 to 600 seconds as well as other functions.
