Chapter 4: AC Drive Parameters
Setting 3: Custom
The setting of a custom V/Hz curve usually follows the load characteristics of a motor. If the
workload exceeds a motor’s capacity, pay attention to its heat dissipation, dynamic balance, and
bearing lubrication.
Custom V/Hz curves are used when “General Purpose,” “High Starting Torque,” or “Fan and Pump”
curves do not deliver the voltage required for the application.
If the voltage setting at low frequency is set to too high a value, it can cause motor insulation or
coil damage through motor overheating, cause a motor stall prevention event, and/or contribute
to over current protection faults. Care must be given to the determination of this parameter’s
value to best protect the motor and provide the best application experience.
The V/Hz curve of Motor 1 is shown below. The V/Hz Curve of Motor 2 will be similar, using
comparable parameters for Motor 2 as shown in ().
