Threshold Values "cold" / "warm" Motor
Parameter 4106 TEMP.COLD MOTOR determines the threshold value. It is derived from the number of cold
(n
cold
) and warm (n
warm
) motor startups.
Unless specified otherwise, three cold and two warm startups (n
cold
= 3; n
warm
= 2) will be sufficient. These are
typical motor data. The limit value is thus derived:
A recommended setting value with consideration of a safety margin for TEMP.COLD MOTOR = 25%.
Should the technical data of the motor make reference to four cold and two warm startups (n
cold
= 4; n
warm
= 2),
the following limit value can be determined:
The setting value should fall below the limit value. A value of 40% is recommended for that purpose.
Note
Overload protection curves are also effective during motor starting conditions. However, the thermal profile
during motor starting is constant. Parameter I MOTOR START at address 1107 limits the working range of the
overload protection to larger current values.
