A.1 Heavy Duty and Normal Duty Ratings
A.1 Heavy Duty and Normal Duty Ratings
The capacity of the drive is based on two types of load characteristics: Heavy Duty
(HD) and Normal Duty (ND).
Refer to Table A.1 for the differences between HD and ND. Specifications for
capacity ratings appear are listed on the following pages.

HD and ND
• HD refers to applications requiring constant torque output, while
ND refers to applications with variable torque needs.
• The drive allows the user to select HD or ND torque depending on
the application. Fans, pumps, and blowers should use ND
(C6-01 = “1”), and other applications generally use HD
(C6-01 = “0”).
• Differences between HD ratings and ND ratings for the drive
include rated input and output current, overload capacity, carrier
frequency, and current limit.
• The default setting is for HD.
