The Yaskawa CIMR-V7AM42P2 belongs to the popular Varispeed VS Mini series. This variable frequency drive handles motors rated up to 3 horsepower. It provides straightforward speed control for many basic applications.
For instance, you can use this VFD for small conveyors and fans. Furthermore, it works well for pumps and mixing equipment. This model reduces energy consumption compared to direct-on-line starting. Therefore, it helps lower your operating costs.
Additionally, the CIMR-V7AM42P2 comes in a compact housing. You can mount it easily inside control panels with limited space. Its simple design makes installation and setup quick.
The Yaskawa CIMR-V7AM42P2 accepts a three-phase input. Its voltage rating is 460V AC (key parameter). The unit delivers 8.1 amps of output current (key parameter). Power output stands at 2.2 kW or 3 HP.
Key electrical parameters include:
Minimum frequency: 50 Hz
Maximum frequency: 60 Hz
Number of phases: 3
Voltage type: AC
Control method: Sine wave PWM
Moreover, this drive supports both V/f control and simple torque control. It includes six digital inputs for external signals. One analog input accepts 0-10V or 4-20mA signals.
The CIMR-V7AM42P2 enclosure measures 120 mm wide, 180 mm high, and 140 mm deep. Its lightweight design weighs only 1.67 kg (3.69 lbs). This compact size fits easily into small machinery compartments.
Environmental specifications are practical for factory use. The operating humidity goes up to 80% (non-condensing). Storage humidity also reaches 80% without condensation.
Next, the maximum operating altitude is 1000 meters above sea level. For higher locations, derating becomes necessary. Vibration resistance meets standard industrial requirements.
You should mount the Yaskawa VS Mini drive vertically on a flat surface. Leave 50 mm of clearance above and below for proper cooling. Use M4 screws through the mounting holes.
Furthermore, follow correct wiring practices. Connect input power to terminals L1, L2, and L3. Connect the motor to terminals U, V, and W. Ground the unit using the dedicated ground terminal. This reduces electrical noise issues.
Finally, set the basic parameters before first startup. Program the motor nameplate values first. Then configure acceleration and deceleration times. The front keypad makes parameter changes simple.

1. Can the CIMR-V7AM42P2 run on single-phase power?
No. This model requires three-phase input power only. Single-phase versions are available from other Yaskawa series.
2. Does this drive include a built-in EMC filter?
No. The Yaskawa CIMR-V7AM42P2 does not have an internal filter. You must add an external EMC filter for CE compliance.
3. What is the maximum cable length to the motor?
The recommended maximum is 50 meters for unshielded cable. For longer runs, use an output reactor.
4. How do I perform a factory reset?
Press and hold the RESET key for 5 seconds. Alternatively, set parameter A1-03 to 2220.
5. Is the programming manual included in the box?
No. Only a quick reference card comes with the unit. You can download the full manual from our website.
