Advance-alarm characteristic/Shutdown characteristic
If, for example, the motor load is continuously at approximately 125% of the permissible
continuous current for the motor, alarm A60037 responds after a time constant (p50114) has
elapsed. If there is no reduction in the load, the drive is shut down when the shutdown
characteristic is reached, and error message F60137 is displayed.
Advance-alarm/shutdown times for other loads may be taken from the diagram below.
