4.2.100 Torque limitation function
The torque limitation function allows you to limit the motor
output torque when "03" (sensorless vector control), "04"
(0Hz-range sensorless vector control), or "05" (vector control
with sensor) is specified for the V/F characteristic curve
selection (A044/A244).
You can select one of the following four torque limitation modes with the torque limit selection (b040):
1) Quadrant-specific setting mode
In this mode, individual torque limit values to be applied to four quadrants (i.e. forward powering,
reverse regeneration, reverse powering, and forward regeneration) are set as the torque limits 1 to 4
(b041 to b044), respectively.
2) Terminal-switching mode
In this mode, the torque limit values set in the torque limits 1 to 4 (b041 to b044) are switched from
one another according to the combination of the states of torque limit switch terminals 1 and 2 (TRQ1
and TRQ2) assigned to intelligent input terminals. A single selected torque limit is valid in all operating
states of the inverter.
3) Analog input mode
In this mode, a torque limit value is set by a voltage applied to the control circuit terminal O2. The
voltage range 0 to 10 V corresponds to the torque limit value range 0 to 200%. A single selected
torque limit is valid in all operating states of the inverter.
4) Option (option 1/2) mode
This mode is valid when the option board (SJ-DG) is used. For details on this mode, refer to the
instruction manual for the option board.
If function "40" (TL: whether to enable torque limitation) has been assigned to an intelligent input
terminal, the torque limitation mode selected by the setting of "b040" is enabled only when the TL
terminal is turned on. When the TL terminal is off, torque limit settings are invalid, and the maximum
torque setting is applied as a torque limit. If the TL function has not been assigned to any intelligent
input terminal, the torque limitation mode selected by the setting of "b040" is always enabled.
Each torque limit value used for this function is expressed as a ratio of the maximum torque
generated when the inverter outputs its maximum current on the assumption that the maximum
torque is 200%. Note that each torque limit value does not represent an absolute value of torque. The
actual output torque varies depending on the motor.
If the torque limited (TRQ) signal function is assigned to an intelligent output terminal, the TRQ signal
will turn on when the torque limitation function operates.
