14.10.4.7 Overcurrent protection
Overview
To limit the motor current, when reaching the current limit, the I_max controller reduces the
output frequency and the motor voltage.
Requirement
The U/f control is active.
Description of function
When reaching the current limit, the I_max controller has the following eect on motor
operation:
• When accelerating, the I_max controller extends the acceleration phase.
• When braking, the I_max controller extends the braking phase.
• Steady-state operation:
– For characteristic "U/f control for a drive that requires precise frequency", the I_max
controller reduces the motor voltage until the motor current returns to the permissible
range.
– For all other U/f characteristics, the I_max controller reduces the speed and the motor
voltage until the motor current returns to the permissible range.
