NOTICE
Motor damage due to overheating
Continuous operation in the area above the S1 characteristic results in motor overheating and
subsequent damage.
• Operate the motor within the values of the S1 characteristic.
M
max
characteristic
The M
max
characteristic ② denes the operating range for transient overloads.
M
max inv
characteristic
The M
max inv
characteristic ③ limits the possible overload range in combination with a specic
maximum converter current. The M
max inv
characteristic takes eld weakening into consideration.
n
max inv
line
The mechanical variables of the motor and the properties of the converter limit the speed range
of the motor. The n
max inv
line ④ limits the maximum permitted speed of the motor in a drive
system with SINAMICS S120.
NOTICE
Damage to the converter due to excessively high speeds
A motor speed higher than n
max inv
can result in a voltage being induced in the winding that
exceeds the maximum permissible voltage at the converter. This induced voltage can destroy
the converter.
• Operate the motor at speeds below n
max inv
.
Voltage limit characteristic curve
Field weakening starts from the voltage limit characteristic ⑤.
As the speed increases, an increasing percentage of the current is used for eld weakening, and
therefore no longer generates a torque. This is the reason that the M
max
characteristic and the S1
characteristic have a steep downward gradient in the eld weakening range.
