Motor Overload Protection
You can protect the motor from overload using the Inverter's built-in electronic thermal overload relay.
Related Constants
* 1. Factory settings depend on Inverter capacity. (The values shown are for a 200 V Class Inverter for 0.4 kW.)
* 2. The settings range is 10% to 200% of the Inverter rated output current. (The values shown are for a 200 V Class Inverter for 0.4 kW.)

Motor protec-
tion selection
Sets whether the motor overload
function is enabled or disabled at
electric thermal overload relay.
0: Disabled
1: General-purpose motor
protection
2: Inverter motor protection
3: Vector motor protection
In some applications when the
Inverter power supply is turned
off, the thermal value is reset, so
even if this constant is set to 1,
protection may not be effective.
When several motors are con-
nected to one Inverter, set to 0 and
ensure that each motor is installed
with a protection device.

Motor protec-

stant
Sets the electric thermal detection
time in seconds units.
Usually setting is not necessary.
The factory setting is 150% over-
load for one minute.
When the motor's overload resis-
tance is known, also set the over-
load resistance protection time for
when the motor is hot started.
