About

FRENIC-eRHR is Fuji Electric’s compact power regenerative converter, catalogued as RHR. It is not a motor drive and has no motor terminals. It sits alongside an inverter driving vertical transport, conveyors and similar loads, and returns braking energy to the mains instead of turning it into heat in a braking resistor, so the panel runs cooler and needs no clearance around a resistor.

Control is by the 120 degree conduction method rather than a sinusoidal active front end, so only two external parts are needed: a current suppressing reactor and a power supply adjusting reactor. Eighteen models cover three-phase 200 V from 5.5 to 30 kW and three-phase 400 V from 5.5 to 75 kW, and RS-485 is standard.

Only the 400 V models carry a European declaration of conformity, issued against EN 62477-1, the converter safety standard rather than the drive standard, so a 200 V unit is a Japanese market machine.

Key Features

  • Braking energy returned to the supply rather than burned off in a resistor

  • No braking resistor needed, which cuts panel heat and allows a more compact control panel

  • Continuous regenerative braking, which a braking resistor and braking unit cannot sustain

  • Only two peripherals: a current suppressing reactor and a power supply adjusting reactor

  • The power supply adjusting reactor can be omitted where the supply meets Fuji’s stated capacity condition

  • RS-485 communications as standard, with a touch panel operated in the same way as FRENIC-Ace

  • Ten year design life for the main circuit capacitor, PCB electrolytics and cooling fan at 40 °C and 80 % load factor
