t Performance

When the motor is running at low speed and high load, the built-in cooling fan may
not provide enough cooling and the motor may overheat.

Parameter P0610 allows

a frequency dependent I

2

t limit to be enabled to protect the motor.

When the inverter is operating in the region above the selected curve (i.e. at low
frequency and high current), a timer is started, and after some time, (based on the
current, the motor size and previous operating history), the inverter will trip or
reduce output frequency.

Trip or reduction of output frequency will depend on the

parameter setting.

10.1.5 Internal

Overtemperature

Under normal circumstances, the inverter will not overheat.

The heatsink maintains

the inverter at normal operating temperature.

Careful consideration when mounting

the inverter will ensure adequate ventilation and reduce the likelihood of
overheating.

Check to see that airflow remains unrestricted. There should be a

minimum clearance of 100 mm free space around the Inverter.
Heatsink temperature is monitored using a PTC resistor and the inverter will trip if
the maximum temperature is exceeded.

If the inverter persistently trips, you should

check for high ambient temperature or blocked airflow.
You can verify heatsink temperature by displaying Parameter r0037.

Units are

given in degrees Celsius (

o

C).

10.1.6

Overvoltage and Trip Levels

The inverter will protect itself from both supply overvoltage and undervoltage.

Trip

levels are shown in Table 10-2. Internal overvoltage can occur during braking
where internal voltages are forced high by energy from an external load.

When output pulses are disabled from the inverter an undervoltage trip will not
occur.

An overvoltage trip will occur at any time when the overvoltage threshold is

exceeded.

CAUTION
Check to ensure you have matched the input supply to the inverter. If the supply
voltage is too high, you may damage the inverter even if it trips.
