The limiting characteristic fields apply for a duty cycle duration of 300 s.
For cycle durations < 300 s, the overload duration must be reduced proportionally
(cycle duration/300 s).
For cycle durations > 300 s, only the same overload duration as with a cycle duration of
300 s is permitted; the base-load duration is correspondingly longer.
The limiting characteristic fields apply for p50077 = 1.00. When setting p50077 to ≤ 1.00,
i.e. reducing the thermal load, the currents that are actually flowing must be evaluated with
the factor 1/p50077:
Overload factor for characteristic X:
Actual overload current / (p50077×rated unit DC current)
Actual maximum base-load current Ig:
-load current acc. to characteristic
as a % of the rated unit DC current
