The IGBT junction temperature is calculated using Heatsink temperature (Pr 7.04) and a thermal model of the drive power stage. The resulting
temperature is displayed in this parameter. The calculated IGBT junction temperature is used to modify the drive switching frequency to reduce losses
if the devices become too hot (see Pr 5.08 on page 58).
In addition to monitoring the IGBT junction temperatures the drive includes a thermal protection system to protect the other components within the
drive. This includes the effects of drive output current and DC bus ripple. The estimated temperature is displayed as a percentage of the trip level in
this parameter. If the parameter value reaches 100% an O.ht3 trip is initiated.
