Questions and answers
We hebben een DE1 frequentieregelaar, waarmee we met een potmeter de snelheid willen regelen. Hoeveel ohm moet de potmeter zijn?
The required potentiometer resistance value for controlling the speed of the Eaton PowerXL DE1 frequency inverter should be at least 1 kΩ and at most 10 kΩ. A recommended value is 4.7 kΩ.
