10.3 Low frequency operation
10.3
Low frequency operation
The converter can only be operated with reduced output current at low output frequencies.
NOTICE
Reduced converter service life as a result of overheating
Loading the converter with a high output current and at the same time with a low output
frequency can cause the current-conducting components in the converter to overheat.
Excessively high temperatures can damage the converter or reduce the converter service
life.
• Never operate the converter continuously with an output frequency = 0 Hz.
• Only operate the converter in the permissible operating range.
• Continuous operation (green area in the figure)
Operating state that is permissible for the complete operating time.
• Short-time operation (yellow area in the figure)
Operating state that is permissible for less than 2% of the total operating time.
• Sporadic short-time operation (red area in the figure)
Operating state that is permissible in very short and seldom operating conditions for less
than 1% of the total operating time.
