Elevator Inverter OVFR03B-402 – The 40 kW Power-Brain That Turns Motor Current into Silent Rides

Every smooth lift begins with a green box humming in the controller cabinet. The OVFR03B-402 is a 40 kW, 400 V class open-loop vector inverter designed specifically for gearless elevator applications. It talks to the mother-board via CAN-bus, modulates torque in real time, and still keeps audible noise below 55 dB. Nanjing Zhuye Elevator Parts keeps factory-sealed OVFR03B-402 units on the shelf for same-day despatch. Below we explain what the drive does, how to commission it in under 20 minutes, and the replacement cycle that prevents expensive “torque fault” call-backs.
-
What OVFR03B-402 Really Does
-
Converts 3 × 380–480 VAC, 50/60 Hz into 3 × 0–400 VAC, 0–100 Hz with 0.01 Hz resolution
-
Delivers 150 % starting torque at 0.5 Hz—perfect for gearless PM machines up to 40 kW
-
Built-in 3 % line reactor reduces harmonics to <5 % THD, meeting IEEE-519
-
Integrated brake-chopper (220 A peak) for 4 Ω external resistor—no extra module needed
-
CAN-open 125 kbit/s or 0–10 V analogue input for both Otis and third-party MCUs
-
Temperature-controlled cooling fan: only runs >45 °C, extending bearing life to 70,000 h
If the inverter faults, the lift coasts, the display shows “OVF” or “TORQUE TIMEOUT”, and rescue operation is required.

Commissioning – 20-Minute Start-Up Safety: lock main breaker, discharge DC bus <50 V, tag out.
Step 1 – Mount inverter on 35 mm DIN rail; leave 100 mm air gap above and below. Step 2 – Connect input through 63 A moulded-case breaker; torque lugs to 2.5 N·m. Step 3 – Wire motor U/V/W to T1/T2/T3; install shielded cable, earth at both ends. Step 4 – Connect brake resistor to B+/B-; set jumper J3 to “400 V 4 Ω”. Step 5 – Plug 4-way CAN: H/L/Shield/0 V; terminate 120 Ω if last node. Step 6 – Apply 24 VDC control supply; display shows “0.0”. Step 7 – Enter motor name-plate values:
-
Pn = motor kW
-
Un = 400 V
-
In = motor amps
-
nn = rated rpm Step 8 – Perform static auto-tune: press RUN; inverter rotates 1/8 turn, stores stator resistance. Step 9 – Save parameters to EEPROM (P1.07 = 1); run full-speed inspection; verify current <110 % In. No oscilloscope needed—OVFR03B-402 is pre-tuned for elevator duty.
-
Daily Operation – What the Inverter Actually Does
-
Updates torque loop every 250 µs; speed ripple <0.02 %
-
Auto-compensates for load weight; prevents rollback during emergency stop
-
Built-in PTB brake test: weekly 150 % torque for 2 s, logs result for inspector
-
Fan only runs >45 °C—noise in machine room <55 dB(A)
-
Replacement Cycle & Preventive Maintenance
-
High-traffic office (>1,000 starts day⁻¹) – blow dust every 3 months, replace inverter every 8 years
-
Residential tower (300–600 starts day⁻¹) – inspect annually, replace every 12 years
-
Low-rise freight (≤200 starts day⁻¹) – inspect every 18 months, replace every 15 years
Replace immediately if:
-
DC bus voltage swings >750 V or <450 V under load
-
IGBT thermal sensor >85 °C with fan running
-
Brake chopper faults ≥3 times in 30 days
-
Capacitor bulge or ESR >150 % of spec
-
Encoder pulse jitter >4 % at constant speed
-
Extending Life – 3 Pro Tips
-
Keep ambient <40 °C; every 10 °C rise halves capacitor life
-
Torque lugs annually; loose connections cause arcing and ozone
-
Run built-in capacitor test (P9.21) every 6 months; logs capacitance trend
-
