Permanent Magnet Motor

For Induction (Geared) type elevator Motors (P4-01=0,1,2) enter the motor rated voltage as shown on the motor nameplate. o If set to 0 voltage compensation is disabled.

When operating Gearless Permanent Magnet Motors in closed loop this value can be set to 0.

When operating Gearless Permanent Magnet Motors (P4-01 = 3) in open loop (P6-05 = 0) the Phase-to-Phase back emf voltage at rated speed must be entered in this parameter.

Enter the Rated (nameplate) current of the motor.

This value must be entered to protect the motor.

Rated (nameplate) Frequency of the motor.

Enter the number of motor poles as shown on the motor nameplate.

Drive automatically calculates the pole number based on the entered values for motor rated frequency (P4-04) and motor rated speed (P4-06) and populates parameter P0-34 (motor poles calculated) with the calculated value

1...240

Poles from motor nameplate

Rated (nameplate) speed of the motor.

IM motor: Allows drive calculation of the rated slip of the motor (in V/F Mode only)

All motors: Changes all speed related parameter values to rpm vs Hz and also required for operating in Linear units mode and when operating with an Encoder.

Rated (nameplate) Cos-Phi of the motor.

If value not available leave at default.
