Protective Functions
Preventing Motor Stalling During Operation
Stall prevention during operation prevents the motor from stalling by automatically lowering the inverter out-
put frequency when a transient overload occurs while the motor is operating at a constant speed.
Stall prevention during operation can be enabled in V/f control only. If the Inverter output current continues to
exceed the setting in parameter L3-06 for 100 ms or longer, the motor speed is reduced. Enable or disable the
stall prevention using parameter L3-05. Set the according deceleration times using C1-02 (Deceleration time
1) or C1-04 (Deceleration Time 2).
If the Inverter output current reaches the set value in L3-06 – 2%, the motor will accelerate again to the set fre-
quency.

Precautions
If the motor capacity is smaller than the Inverter capacity or the motor stalls when operating at the factory set-
tings, lower the stall prevention level during operation.

Setting Precautions
Set the parameters as a percentage taking the inverter rated current to be 100%.
•
Do not increase the stall prevention level unnecessarily. An extremely high setting can reduce the inverter
•
lifetime. Also do not disable the function.
If the motor stalls with the factory settings check the V/f pattern (E1-
•
If the stall level has to be increased very much to get the elevator running, check the mechanical system or
•
consider using a one size bigger inverter.
Motor Torque Detection / Car Stuck Detection
The inverter provides a torque detection function to detect overtorque (Car stuck) or undertorque. An alarm
signal can be output to the digital output terminals M1-M2, M3-M4, or M5-M6.
To use the overtorque/undertorque detection function, set B, 17, 18, 19 (overtorque/undertorque detection NO/
NC) in one of the parameter H2-01 to H2-03 (digital output terminals M1 to M6 function selection).
Overtorque/undertorque is detected by:
observing the output current in V/f control (the inverter rated output current is equal to 100%).
•
observing the torque reference value in Open Loop and Closed Loop Vector control (the motor rated torque
•
is equal to 100%).
