Sizing
Drive sizing is based on the rated motor current and power. To achieve the rated
motor power given in the table, the rated current of the drive must be higher than or
equal to the rated motor current. Also the rated power of the drive must be higher
than or equal to compared to the rated motor power. The power ratings are the same
regardless of the supply voltage within one voltage range.
Note 1: The maximum allowed motor shaft power is limited to 1.5 · P
N
. If the limit is
exceeded, motor torque and current are automatically restricted. The function
protects the input bridge of the drive against overload.
Note 2: The ratings apply at ambient temperature of 40 °C (104 °F) for I
2N
and 50 °C
(122 °F) for I
LD
.
In multimotor systems, the output current of the drive must be equal to or greater than
the calculated sum of the input currents of all motors.

typical motor power. The kilowatt ratings apply to most IEC 4-pole motors. The
horsepower ratings apply to most NEMA 4-pole motors.
