Selection and protection of a motor
4
PARAMETERS
(3) Set multiple electronic thermal relay functions (Pr. 51)
(4) Electronic thermal relay function alarm output and alarm signal (THP signal)
(5) External thermal relay input (OH signal)
Use this function when rotating two motors of different rated currents individually by a
single inverter. (When rotating two motors together, use external thermal relays.)
⋅ Set the rated current of the second motor in Pr. 51.
⋅ When the RT signal is on, thermal protection is provided based on the Pr. 51 setting.
100%: Electronic thermal relay function alarm operation value
⋅ The alarm signal (THP) is output when the electronic thermal
relay function cumulative value reaches 85% of the level set in
Pr. 9 or Pr. 51. If it reaches 100% of the Pr. 9 Electronic thermal O/
L relay setting, electronic thermal relay function protection (E.
THM/E.THT) occurs.
⋅ The inverter does not shut off the output if the alarm signal is
output.
⋅
For the terminal used for the THP signal output, assign the
function by setting "8" (positive logic) or "108" (negative logic) in
any of
Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 (output terminal function selection)
.
CAUTION
⋅ Changing the terminal assignment using Pr. 190 to Pr. 196 (output terminal function selection) may affect the other functions. Make
setting after confirming the function of each terminal.
External thermal relay input
connection example
⋅ To protect the motor against overheat, use the OH signal when using an external
thermal relay or the built-in thermal protector of the motor.
⋅ When the thermal relay operates, the inverter shuts off the output and outputs the
alarm signal (E.OHT).
⋅ For the terminal used for OH signal input, assign the function by setting "7" in any
of Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection)
CAUTION
⋅ Changing the terminal assignment using Pr. 178 to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection) may affect the other functions. Make
setting after confirming the function of each terminal.
REMARKS
⋅ The RT signal acts as the second function selection signal and makes the other second
functions valid. (Refer to page 226)
⋅ The RT signal is assigned to the RT terminal in the initial setting. By setting "3" in any of Pr. 178
to Pr. 189 (input terminal function selection), you can assign the RT signal to the other terminal.
.... Output current value is used to perform integration processing.
.... Output current is assumed as 0A to perform integration processing. (cooling processing)
× ..... Electronic thermal relay function is not activated.
