Setting The Voltage Boost - Siemens SINAMICS V20 Operating Instructions Manual

5.6.2.3

Setting the voltage boost

Functionality
For low output frequencies, the V/f characteristics only give a low output voltage. The ohmic
resistances of the stator winding play a role at low frequencies, which are neglected when
determining the motor flux in V/f control. This means that the output voltage can be too low in
order to:
● implement the magnetization of the asynchronous motor
● hold the load
● overcome losses in the system.
The output voltage can be increased (boosted) in the inverter using the parameters as
shown in the table below.
Parameter Boost type
P1310 Continuous boost [%]
SINAMICS V20 Inverter
Operating Instructions, 11/2016, A5E34559884-006
Description
This parameter defines boost level relative to P0305 (rated motor current)
applicable to both linear and quadratic V/f curves.
Range: 0.0 to 250.0 (factory default: 50.0)
The voltage boost is effective over the complete frequency range whereby the
value continually decreases at high frequencies.
