Duty cycles with constant ON duration
For duty cycles with constant ON duration, there are specic requirements for the torque
characteristic curve as a function of the speed, for example:
M = constant, M ~ n
2
, M ~ n or P = constant.
Figure 5-2 S1 duty (continuous operation)
The drives with this load cycle typically operate at a stationary operating point.
Procedure
1. Congure a base load for the stationary operating point. The base load torque must lie below
the S1 characteristic.
2. In the event of transient overloads (e.g. during acceleration), congure an overload.
Calculate the overload current in relation to the required overload torque. The overload
torque must lie below the M_max characteristic.
In summary, the motor is congured as follows:
