When selecting the output reactors, the max. output
frequency and the max. pulse frequency should be taken into
account.
It is not possible to use sinusoidal or dv/dt filters from the
MASTERDRIVE 6SE70... series for applications with
MICROMASTER / MIDIMASTER. The reasons are technical
ones (the filters are matched to the pulse frequency and
modulation of the MASTERDRIVE series).
PTC thermistors and tripping units are specified for 1MJ
motors. More detailed information is provided in Catalog NS
2 under the Info "Operating explosion-protective motors with
AC drive inverters" ID: 4886577
Drive inverter & motor assignment
The selection parameters for 2, 4, 6 and 8-pole squirrel-cage
motors are essentially the voltage and current. However,
instead of the current, the rated motor power can be used.
For safety reasons, when engineering the drive, it should be
noted (especially for third-party motors), that the rated drive
inverter output current is dimensioned to be approx. 10%
higher than the rated motor current (I
inverter rated
³ 1.1 * I

rated
). Furthermore, it is assumed that the motors are used in
accordance with temperature rise Class F and continuous
duty S1
.

The motor rated current is greater than the rated
drive inverter current
A "larger" motor (current, voltage, power) should never be
operated together with a smaller drive inverter. There may be
some exceptions:
Motors in the partial load range
Motors for pump and fan applications (VT).
Motors in the partial load mode
Generally, we recommend that this operating mode is not
used!
If the drive inverter is to be connected to a larger motor than
that specified in the assignment table, e.g. the drive is only
operated in the partial load range, then the following limits
and restrictions should be carefully observed:
The maximum drive inverter current (short-time current P086
& P186) should be greater than or at least the same as the
rated motor current or, if applicable, the same as the sum of
the rated currents of the connected motors (for multi-motor
drives). Otherwise, peak currents which could occur, would
trip the drive (shutdown) due to an overcurrent condition.
This is because the leakage inductance and therefore the
current ripple are higher for larger motors. Under no
circumstances may the Vector control type be selected (the
V/Hz control type with the factory set motor parameters
should be selected). The pulse frequency should be set as
low as possible.
Blower and pump drives with 1LA5, 1LA6 and 1LA7
motors: ("Variable torque", VT)
Blower (fan) and pump drives with a load characteristic M ~
n
2
(VT) only require the full torque at the rated speed.
Generally, increased starting torques are not expected due to
load surges. This is the reason that the drive inverter does
not require an overload capability.
For fan and pump drives, the motor and drive inverter should
be matched so that the max. motor current at full torque and
at the rated operating point corresponds to the drive inverter
continuous current.
The favorable pulse pattern permits, in almost all cases, the
same output at the rated operating point as for direct online
operation (where the motor is directly connected to the line
supply). Motors must be used so that they comply with
temperature rise Class F.
"Variable torque", VT
For fan and pump drives, for each
1)
specified motor output,
the next smaller MIDIMASTER Vector can be used. The
prerequisite is that the square-law V/Hz characteristic (P077
= 2) is selected and the lowest possible pulse frequency
(P076 = 6=2KHZ). With this setting, a significantly higher
continuous output current at the MIDIMASTER Vector is
possible, so that in most cases, the rated power for the next
larger motor is reached. However, the overload capability of
the drive inverter is max 110% as a result of this measure.
