Learning Protection Features
Inverter and Sequence Protection
Input/Output open-phase protection
Open-phase monitoring and protection can be set to either or both the input and output of the
inverter. The protection is used to prevent overcurrent levels at the inverter input and/or output
due to an open-phase. An open-phase at output may cause the motor to stall due to a lack of
torque. For input phase open, a voltage level can be set (Pr.06), below which the inverter will trip.

Input and/or output phase protection can be selected. When the top
LED segment is on, the corresponding bit is set On (1). When the
bottom LED segment is on, the corresponding bit is Off (0). Bit 0 is for
output phase monitoring, Bit 1 is for input phase monitoring.
