VersiStart i III
50
The flags clear when the current returns within the normal operating range by 10% of the programmed flag value.
Parameter 7J Low Current Flag
Range:
1% - 100% FLC
Default:
50%
Description: Sets the level at which the low current flag operates, as a percentage of motor full load current.
Parameter 7K High Current Flag
Range:
50% - 600% FLC
Default:
100%
Description: Sets the level at which the high current flag operates, as a percentage of motor full load current.
7L – Motor Temperature Flag
The VersiStart i III has a motor temperature flag to give early warning of abnormal operation. The flag can indicate that the motor is
operating above its normal operating temperature but lower than the overload limit. The flag can signal the situation to external
equipment via one of the programmable outputs.
Range:
0% - 160%
Default:
80%
Description: Sets the level at which the motor temperature flag operates, as a percentage of the motor's thermal capacity.
9.4.8
8 Analog Output
The VersiStart i III has an analog output, which can be connected to associated equipment to monitor motor performance.
8A – Analog Output A
Options:
Current (% FLC) (default)
Current as a percentage of motor full load current.
Motor Temp (%)
Motor temperature as a percentage of the motor's thermal capacity.
Motor kW (%)
Measured motor kilowatts, as a percentage of maximum kW.
Motor kVA (%)
Measured motor kilovolt amperes, as a percentage of maximum kVA.
Motor pf
Motor power factor, measured by the soft starter.
Measured motor kW:
3 x average current x mains reference voltage x measured power factor
Maximum motor kW:
3 x motor FLC x mains reference voltage. Power factor is assumed to be 1
Measured motor kVA:
3 x average current x mains reference voltage
Maximum motor kVA:
3 x motor FLC x mains reference voltage
Description: Selects which information will be reported via the analog output.
8B – Analog A Scale
Range:
0-20 mA
4-20 mA (default)
Description: Selects the range of the analog output.
8C – Analog A Maximum
Range:
0% - 600%
Default:
100%
Description: Calibrates the upper limit of the analog output to match the signal measured on an external current measuring device.
8D – Analog A Minimum
Range:
0% - 600%
Default:
0%
Description: Calibrates the lower limit of the analog output to match the signal measured on an external current measuring device.
