Field circuit
The DV-300 regulation card is shipped with the field current feedback resistor dipswitches S14 calibrated for
the maximum rating of the field package capacity for each size DV-300.
This maximum field package rating is incorporated in the DV-300 catalog number. For example 6KD-
V3017Q4F10D1 the “10” represents a 10A field exicer.
Compare the actual motor field data to the maximum rating of the field package of the DV-300 model supplied
(see table 2.4.3.1), and to the field calibration dipswitch S14, as noted below.
- For fixed field current operation, if the actual motor (base) field current ≤ 10% of the maximum rating of
the field package it is required to calibrate the field current feedback scaling using dipswitch S14.
- For weak field operation, also referred as “CEMF field control” or “crossover field control”, if the top base
speed Motor nom flux ≤ 10% of the maximum rating of the field package it is required to calibrate the
field current feedback scaling using dipswitch S14.
Calibration to the exact field current setting is not required, as long as the above conditions are met.
Calibration is not required if the field control is provided by a separate field converter.
Setting all dip switches to OFF allows a custom calculated resistor to be used in terminals LA and LB using the
following formula for model numbers 3017 to 3850, 3020 to 310H :
Resistance = 1667 / field current amps.
For model numbers 30900 to 33300 the formula is in Appendix A (GEI-100332C).
