 From the table, we see that the PWM carrier frequency has a significant influence on the
electromagnetic noise, AC motor drive heat dissipation, and motor acoustic noise.
 The PWM carrier frequency will be decreased automatically by heat sink temperature and
output current of the AC motor drive. It is used as a necessary precaution to prevent the AC
motor drive from overheating and thus extends IGBT’s life. If the user wants to fix carrier within
the rated range and won’t change by the change of the surrounding temperature and
frequently load. Please refer to Pr.02.18 for Selection of Carrier Modulation.
 Related parameters: Pr.02.18(Selection of Carrier Modulation) and Pr.03.08(Fan Control).
