How do
you achieve 200% of rated motor torque from the motor at low speed?
The low speed
flux boosting capability (FluxPlus) of the Zener MSC-3 will produce approximately
130% of rated torque at rated motor current. To get the remaining torque
required, we need some extra amps. Choose an MSC-3 with a continuous rated
current ofnot less than:
(Motor FLC/1.1) x (200/130) Amps (This is equivalent to Motor FLC x 1.4)
Please be
aware that this current is beyond the contiuous capability of the motor,
and the motor thermal protection (I2t, thermal overload relay or thermistors)
should be set appropriately to protect the motor.
How does
the DC choke help to protect the rectifier against line transients when
the choke is after the rectifier?
It is effective
in protecting the rectifier from current surges because it is series with
the current flow. It is not effective in reducing the direct effect of
volyage spikes, so we fit metal oxide varistors (MOVs) to all drives as
standard.
