1.5 Power and torque curves
When setting up a drive the torque sequence must be considered in the wanted regulation area.
This can roughly be divided into 3 groups:
•
Constantly torque in all regulation area e.g. conveyer
•
Rising torque at speed acceleration e.g. Pumps or ventilation.
•
Falling torque at speed acceleration e.g. drilling machines or tools machines.
Diagram below might help to choose the right function and power selection.
Power and torque curve
Zone 1:
Power rises linear with frequency. Rotation torque M is constant (M
n
).
Warning:
By continuous run with motor torque below 20 Hz, use a motor size larger or a motor with
ventilation.
Zone 2:
Power is constant (P
n
)
Torque falls with rising frequency

Frequency / Voltage point at 50 Hz
Frequency / Voltage point at 87 Hz
If you choose to set the systems max frequency to
75 Hz instead of 50. Is it possible to equalize the
smaller motor torque with a larger gearing in the
gear.
Advantages:
•
1,5 times larger regulations area
•
1,5 times larger torque below 50Hz
•
Higher start torque.
•
Ventilation of motor might not be needed.
Suitable for 3 phased mains supply( SC3- ) and
motor voltages at 230 / 400V by setting the motor in
delta
∆
. This way you take advantage of the linear
V/F curve until 87Hz. The motor is supplied with
230V at 50 Hz and 400V at 87Hz
Advantages:
•
1,73 times larger regulations area
•
1,73 times larger motor power at 1,73 times
larger frequency inverter power.
•
100% torque from above 87 Hz.
