If slip compensation is required MotorRatedSpeed (05.008) should be set to the motor nameplate value, which should give the correct compensation for a
hot motor providing the nameplate value is correct. Slip compensation can be used throughout the speed range of the motor, i.e. below base speed and in the
flux weakening region, to correct the motor speed to minimise the change of speed with load. SlipCompensationLevel (05.027) is provided for the user to be
able to set the amount of compensation applied. At its default value of 100.0% Ratedslip is applied and reducing it below 100.0% will reduce the amount of
slip compensation, which may be required if some instability is experienced. Setting SlipCompensationLevel (05.027) negative causes the motor frequency to
reduce as load is applied introducing speed droop, which can be used to aid load sharing with mechanically coupled motors.
Slip Compensation = RatedSlip x TorqueProducingCurrent (04.002) / ITrated x SlipCompensationLevel (05.027) / 100
where I
Trated
= Torque Rated Current (see TorqueProducingCurrent (04.002) )
The amount of slip compensation applied can be limited by SlipCompensationLimit (05.033)
In Ur modes of operation the amount of slip can be increased at low output frequecies to boost torque capability at these frequencies. Also when Open-
loopVoltageMode (05.014) is set to mode 6 (Fixed Tapered) the slip can be tapered to 0 at very low frequencies to prevent creep at standstill,see
LowFrequencyEstimatorThreshold,LowFrequencyTorqueadjustment (05.084) .
Slip compensation is disabled under the following conditions:
1. MotorRatedSpeed (05.008) = 0
2. MotorRatedSpeed (05.008) = MotorRatedFrequency (05.006) x 60 / Pole pairs, i.e. synchronous speed.
3. SlipCompensationLevel (05.027) = 0.0%
4. SlipCompensationLimit (05.033) = 0.00Hz
It should be noted that MotorRatedSpeed (05.008) is used to calculate the rotor time constant of the motor which is then used to determine the flux build-up
time at the start of the catch a spinning motor algorithm. If spinning start is required (i.e. CatchASpinningMotor (06.009) ≥ 1) then MotorRatedSpeed
(05.008) should be set up correctly for the motor. If slip compensation is not required, it can be disabled by setting SlipCompensationLevel (05.027) to 0.0%.

MotorRatedCurrent is used as follows:
1. To define the rated operating conditions for motor thermal protection. See ThermalProtectionMode (04.016).
2. To define the range of the current limits.
3. In the motor control algorithm for Open-loop and Closed Loop asynchronous modes.
