Figure 13: Temperature curves for IPD-600.2-50 driver @ 90 °C liquid temperature with
water cooling module WCM-i600.1.
(Typical data for pumping with pump head LPP-600.29, temp. is measured inside the driver.)
The above curves are measurements of the motor temperature at certain liquid and ambient temperatures.
equation (Eq. 1) for convection cooling and (Eq. 2) for water cooling with show how to approximately
calculate the motor temperature for other pumping liquid, ambient and cooling liquid temperatures based on
these curves.

All above presented thermal data are typical values, which are partly based on measurements and partly on
interpolations with a simplified thermal model and are therefore only guideline values and are suitable for a
first layout of the basic thermal concept. It is recommended to check the thermal values with the motor placed
on the final location and under worst case performance conditions of the application. To account for thermal
variations (like ambient temperature, closed chemical cabinets or corners without ventilations) and to not
significantly reduce the MTBF of the motor it is recommended to keep about 15°C safety distance to the
absolute thermal limit of the driver (80°C) when designing the thermal concept of the pump system. It is
recommended to avoid thermal stagnation in the room or cabinet, where the driver is placed. Any type of
circulation decreases the driver temperature significantly.
