● PTC sensor
● Pt1000 sensor
Function description
KTY84 sensor
NOTICE
Overheating of the motor due to KTY sensor connected with the incorrect polarity
If a KTY sensor is connected with incorrect polarity, the motor can be damaged by
overheating, as the converter cannot detect a motor overtemperature condition.
● Connect the KTY sensor with the correct polarity.
Using a KTY sensor, the converter monitors the motor temperature and the sensor itself for
wire-break or short-circuit:
● Temperature monitoring:
The converter uses a KTY sensor to evaluate the motor temperature in the range from
-48 °C ... +248 °C.
Set the temperature for the alarm and fault thresholds with parameter p0604 or p0605.
– Overtemperature alarm (A07910):
- motor temperature > p0604 and p0610 = 0
– Overtemperature fault (F07011):
The converter responds with a fault in the following cases:
- motor temperature > p0605
- motor temperature > p0604 and p0610 >0
● Sensor monitoring (A07015 or F07016):
– Wire-break:
The converter interprets a resistance > 2120 Ω as a wire-break and outputs the alarm
A07015. After 100 milliseconds, the converter changes to the fault state with F07016.
– Short-circuit:
The converter interprets a resistance < 50 Ω as a short-circuit and outputs the alarm
A07015. After 100 milliseconds, the converter changes to the fault state with F07016.
