Quick magnetization for induction motors

For crane applications, frequently a frequency converter is switched alternately to different
motors. After being switched to a different motor, a new data set must be loaded in the
frequency converter and the motor magnetized. This can result in excessive waiting times
which can be significantly reduced by means of quick magnetization.
Features
● Fast magnetization is used for induction motors in vector control.
● Fast flux build-up through injection of a field-generating current at the current limit,
● The "flying restart" function continues working with parameter p0346 (magnetization
● Magnetization is not dependent on a brake configuration (p1215) as it is with SERVO
Commissioning
Parameter p1401.6 = 1 (flux control configuration) must be set to activate quick
magnetization.
This setting initiates the following sequence during motor starting:
● The field-producing current setpoint jumps to its limit value: 0.9 x r0067 (Imax).
● The flux increases as fast as physically possible with the specified current.
● The flux setpoint r0083 is made to follow accordingly.
● As soon as the flux threshold value programmed in p1573 is reached (min. 10% and max.
● The flux is increased further until the flux setpoint in p1570 has been reached.
● The field-producing current setpoint is reduced by means of a flux controller with P gain

200%, factory setting 100%), excitation is ended and the speed setpoint is enabled. The
flux threshold value must not be set too low for a large load because the torque-
producing current is limited during magnetization.
Note
The flux threshold value set in parameter p1573 is effective only if the actual flux during
magnetization reaches the value programmed in p1573 before the time set in p0346.
