Functions and Operation MC_0158 Motor protection functions: Dynamic thrust limitation: If the electric motor winding temperature exceeds 130°C, the PDC 301 limits the maximum thrust output. The maximum thrust permitted will decrease proportionally to increasing temperatures higher than 130°C. (NB: Joystick panel will give an alert when the temperature exceeds 130°C. In this situation, the thruster can still be operated.
