8.21 Overcurrent protection
Overview
The U/f control prevents too high a motor current by inuencing the output frequency and the
motor voltage (I-max controller).
Requirement
You have selected U/f control.
The application must allow the motor torque to decrease at a lower speed.
Function description
The I-max controller inuences the output frequency and the motor voltage.
If the motor current reaches the current limit during acceleration, the I-max controller extends
the acceleration operation.
If the motor load is so high during steady-state operation that the motor current reaches the
current limit, then the I-max controller reduces the speed and the motor voltage until the motor
current returns to the permissible range again.
If the motor current reaches the current limit during deceleration, the I-max controller extends
the deceleration operation.
Changing the settings
The factory setting for proportional gain and the integral time of the I-max controller ensures
faultless operation in the vast majority of cases.
The factory setting of the I-max controller must only be changed in the following exceptional
cases:
• Speed or torque of the motor tend to cause vibrations upon reaching the current limit.
• The converter goes into the fault state with an overcurrent message.
