Matching the Drive to the Intended Motor

The selection of the correct drive should be based upon the motor full load current rating at the incoming supply voltage, noting that the drive has a maximum continuous Overload capacity of 150% for 60 seconds (200% for 4 seconds), this must be checked to ensure that it matches the application requirements in terms of required acceleration times and load conditions.

The continuous operating current of the drive can be found on the drive rating label.
