The drive takes all size information in kilowatts (kW), so horsepower (Hp) must be converted
to kW. The formula is 1 Hp = ¾ of a kW. The chart above shows the equivalent.
Each drive size can be programmed to accommodate 4 sizes smaller and one size larger.
On the larger size – do not exceed the maximum current rating of the drive.
Parameter 102 in the Instruction Manual shows all the kW sizes.
