Special Conditions
Under some special conditions, where the operation of the
frequency converter is challenged, consider derating. In
some conditions, derating must be done manually.
In other conditions, the frequency converter automatically
performs a degree of derating when necessary. Derating is
done to ensure the performance at critical stages where
the alternative could be a trip.
7.12.1 Manual Derating
Manual derating must be considered for:
•
Air pressure – for installation at altitudes above
1000 m (3281 ft).
•
Motor speed – at continuous operation at low
RPM in constant torque applications.
•
Ambient temperature – above 45 °C (113 °F), for
details, see Illustration 7.3, Illustration 7.4,
Illustration 7.5, Illustration 7.6, and Illustration 7.7.
