Abstract:
1. An inverter device for variably controlling an operating frequency of an electric motor which drives a compressor in a refrigerating cycle, comprising: a box-like resin case having a metal film for shielding being one of applied and plated on a surface thereof, and having a step portion on which a terminal block for the motor is arranged; a first substrate having mounted thereon power semiconductor devices constituting a converter for converting an alternating voltage from an alternating power source into a direct current and an inverter which is a DC/AC converter so as to be immersed in gel, said first substrate being mounted in said case and being brought into proximity of radiation fins at a reverse surface thereof; and a second substrate having mounted thereon interface connectors into which signals from detection sensors for temperatures and pressures in the refrigerating cycle are input and photo-couplers for transmitting the input signals, said second substrate being mounted in said case above said first substrate.
