7.5 To drive the motor
7.5.1 V/f characteristic curve selection
[A044/A244]
The V/F characteristic curve selection function allows you to set the output voltage/output frequency (V/f)
characteristic.
To switch the V/F characteristic curve selection among the 1st and 2nd settings, assign function "08" (SET)
to intelligent input terminals. Use the SET signal for switching.

(1) Constant torque characteristic (VC)
With this control system set, the output voltage is in proportion to the output frequency within the range
from 0 Hz to the base frequency. Within the output frequency range over the base frequency up to the
maximum frequency, the output voltage is constant, regardless of the change in the output frequency.
(2) Reduced-torque characteristic (1.7th power of VP)
This control system is suited when the inverter is used with equipment (e.g., fan or pump) that does not
require a large torque at a low speed.
Since this control system reduces the output voltage at low frequencies, you can use it to increase the
efficiency of equipment operation and reduce the noise and vibrations generated from the equipment.
The V/f characteristic curve for this control system is shown below.
Period : While the output frequency increases from 0 Hz to the 10% of the base frequency, the
output voltage follows the constant torque characteristic.
(Example) If the base frequency is 60 Hz, the constant torque characteristic is maintained
within the output frequency range of 0 to 6 Hz.
Period : While the output frequency increases from the 10% of base frequency to the base
frequency, the output voltage follows the reduced-torque characteristic. In other words, the
output voltage increases according to the 1.7th power of the output frequency.
Period :
While the output frequency increases from the base frequency to the maximum frequency,
the output voltage is constant.
