Maximum current at low speeds
NOTICE
Negative impact on the converter service life as a result of overheating.
Loading the converter with a high output current and at the same time with a low output
frequency can cause the current-conducting components in the converter to overheat.
Excessively high temperatures can damage the converter or have a negative impact on the
converter service life.
• Never operate the converter continuously with an output frequency = 0Hz.
• Only operate the converter in the permissible operating range.
