(1) Overload restriction function
- The overload restriction function allows you to make the
inverter monitor the motor current during acceleration or
constant-speed operation and automatically reduce the output
frequency according to the deceleration rate at overload
restriction when the motor current reaches the overload
restriction level.
- This function prevents the moment of inertia from excessively
increasing during motor acceleration and prevents the inverter
from tripping because of overcurrent, even when the load
changes suddenly during the constant-speed operation of the
motor.
- You can specify two types of overload restriction operation by setting functional items "b021", "b022", and
"b023" and functional items "b024", "b025", and "b026" separately.
- To switch the overload restriction operation between the two settings (setting with b021, b022, and b023
and setting with b024, b025, and b026), assign function "39" (OLR) to an intelligent input terminal. Turn the
- OLR signal on and off to switch between the two settings.
- The overload restriction level specifies the current at which to trigger the overload restriction function.
- The deceleration rate at overload restriction specifies the length of time to decelerate the motor from the
maximum frequency to 0 Hz.
- When this function operates during deceleration, the acceleration time is prolonged over the set time.
When you have selected the sensorless vector control, 0Hz-range sensorless vector control, or vector
control with sensor as the V/F characteristic curve selection (see Section 4.2.18) and "03" for "b021" or
"b024", the inverter output frequency increases if the current over the overload restriction level flows during
the regenerative operation.
If the value set as the deceleration rate at overload restriction (b023/b026) is too small, the inverter
automatically decelerates the motor even during acceleration because of the overload restriction, and may
trip because of the overvoltage caused by the energy regenerated by the motor.
If this function operates during acceleration and the output frequency cannot reach the target frequency,
try to make the following adjustments:
- Increase the acceleration time. (See Section 4.2.8.)
- Increase the torque boost setting. (See Section 4.2.19.)
- Increase the overload restriction setting (b022/b025).
