High overload - low overload PM240-2
Typical inverter load cycles
Figure 7-1 "Low Overload" and "High Overload" load cycles
Overload capability is the property of the inverter to temporarily supply a current that is
higher than the rated current to accelerate a load. Two typical load cycles are defined to
clearly demonstrate the overload capability: "Low Overload" and "High Overload"
Definitions
Base load
Constant load between the accelerating phases of the drive
Low Overload
High Overload
•
LO base load input current
Permissible input current for a "Low
Overload" load cycle
•
LO base load output current
Permissible output current for a "Low
Overload" load cycle
•
LO base load power
Rated power based on the LO base load
output current
•
HO base load input current
Permissible input current for a "High
Overload" load cycle
•
HO base load output current
Permissible output current for a "High
Overload" load cycle
•
HO base load power
Rated power based on the HO base
load output current
If not specified otherwise, the power and current data in the technical data always refer to a
load cycle according to Low Overload.
We recommend the "SIZER" engineering software to select the inverter.
