Limit any voltage peaks on the motor when using a frequency converter to the following values:
max. voltage rise 500 V/μs, max. voltage peak 1000 V.
Make sure that the running up time from 0 to 30 Hz and the deceleration time from 30 to 0 Hz is
maximum one second.
Dimension the cable such that power loss due to additional filters is taken into consideration.
Make sure that the required coolant flow speed along the motor is also observed with frequency
converter operation.
Note
When operating a motor with a soft starter, the relevant operating manual must be observed!
Set the starting voltage of the soft starter to 55 % of the nominal voltage and set the running up and
delay times to max. three seconds.
Bridge the soft starter after running up, using a contactor.
The motor is maintenance-free, no maintenance or service activities are necessary.
