1.6.7.3 Motor loadability with other voltage source PWM-type converters
For other converters, with uncontrolled DC voltage and a minimum switching frequency of 3 kHz (200...500 V), the
dimensioning instructions as mentioned in Chapter 1.6.7.2 Motor loadability with AC_5_ _ – series of converter can be
used as guidelines. However, it shall be noted that the actual thermal loadability can also be lower.
Please contact the manufacturer of the converter or the system supplier.
NOTE:
1.6.7.4 Short time overloads
HDP motors are designed to be temporarily overloaded and for intermittent duties. The most convenient method to
dimension such applications is to use the DriveSize tool.
1.6.8 Rating plates
The parameters required for commissioning the converter can be found from the main rating plate. In some special
applications, however, the motors can be equipped with additional rating plates.
Those include the following information:
•
Speed range
•
Power range
•
Frequency range
•
Voltage and current range
•
Duty type
•
Maximum speed
1.6.9 Commissioning of the application
The commissioning of HDP motors follows the rules for every variable speed application.
Therefore it must be done according to the instructionsof the frequency converter and local laws and regulations.
The requirements and limitations set by the application must also be taken into account.
All parameters required for setting the converter must be taken from the motor rating plates.
The most often required parameters are:
•
Nominalvoltage
•
Nominal current
•
Nominal frequency
•
Nominal speed
•
Nominal power
NOTE:
ABB recommends using all the suitable protective features provided by the converter to improve the safety of the
application. Converters usually provide features such as (names and availability of features depend on manufacturer
and model of the converter):
•
Minimum speed
•
Maximum speed
•
Acceleration and deceleration times
•
Maximum current
•
Maximum torque
•
Stall protection
The actual thermal loadability of a motor may be lower than shown by guideline
curves.
In case of missing or inaccurate information, do not operate the motor before
ensuring the correct settings!
