Selection of Motor Modules
The required currents for overload are specified in the power-speed characteristics (powers
for S6-25 %, S6-40 %, S6-60 %). Intermediate values can be interpolated.
2.3.6 A high field weakening range is required
Proceed as follows for applications with a field-weakening range greater than for standard
induction motors:
Starting from the max. speed n
max
and the power P
max
required at maximum speed, a motor
must be selected which provides the required power P
max
at this operating point (n
max
, P
max
).
Finally, a check should be made as to whether the motor can generate the torque or the
power at the transition speed required by the application (n
