11 Glossary
1-Q speed controller
The motor produces positive torque in the selected or
programmed direction. The load is not actively dece-
lerated when the speed set value is reduced or the
direction changed (direction pre-selection version). The
speed control enters again as soon as the load has
reduced its speed through friction to the level specified
by the set value speed.
Max. torque [mNm]
The peak torque the motor can deliver intermittently. It
is restricted by the electronics overload protection.
Max. current [A]
Supply current with which the peak torque is generated
at nominal voltage. With an active speed controller,
the supply current is not proportional to the torque, but
also depends on the supply voltage. As a result, this
value only applies at nominal voltage.
IP 00
No protection against access to dangerous parts. No
protection against water.
IP 40
Protected against access to dangerous parts with a
wire, tool or similar >_ Ø1 mm.
