To facilitate determination of the standardized speed, the LMV37.4 features automatic 
speed standardization. The speed must be standardized while in standby mode. Speed 
standardization is integrated in the setting process for electronic fuel-air ratio control, but 
can also be started later from the parameter setting level. When using a release contact 
for the VSD (external relay at fan output X3-05 pin 1), the fan output is controlled during 
speed standardization. 
 
1.  Start speed standardization 
To start automatic speed standardization, set parameter 641 to 1. 
 
No. Parameter 
641  Control of VSD’s speed standardization 
Error diagnostics of negative values (refer to error 82) 
0 = no speed standardization 
1 = speed standardization active 
 
2.  Drive the air damper to the prepurge position 
Speed standardization begins when the air damper travels to the prepurge position. 
When this position is reached, the air damper should be fully open so that the fan 
operates at full capacity. 
 
3.  Control the VSD 
The VSD is activated with 95% of the maximum voltage during active speed control. 
A margin of 5% allows the speed to be readjusted should environmental conditions 
change. This means that full speed (100%) is reached with 95% VSD control (refer to 
chapter Setting the parameters of the VSD). 
The specification for determining the standardized speed varies depending on the speed 
control setting and the selected operating mode. This means that a slightly reduced fan 
speed may be available.

0 = deactivated (self-regulated PWM fan) 
1 = activated (VSD) 
 
4.  Wait until the speed is higher and has stabilized 
Before the 100% speed can be measured, the fan must have reached stationary 
conditions. This means that the fan must operate under stable conditions above 650 
rpm. When this state is reached, a certain waiting time is observed, allowing the speed 
to eventually stabilize. 
 
5.  Measure the speed and store it 
When the speed has stabilized, measure and store it as the Standardized speed (100% 
speed).
