Setting Motor Protection Operation Time
Set the motor protection operation time in L1-02.
If, after operating the motor continuously at the rated current, a 150% overload is experienced, set the (hot
start) electronic thermal protection operation time. The factory setting is resistance to 150% for 60 seconds.
The following diagram shows an example of the characteristics of the electronic thermal protection operation
time (L1-02 = 1.0 min., operation at 60 Hz, general-purpose motor characteristics, when L1-01 is set to 1)

Setting Precautions
•
If multiple motors are connected to one Inverter, set constant L1-01 to 0 (disabled). To protect the motor,
install a thermal relay in the motor power cable, and perform overload protection on each motor.
•
With applications where the power supply is often turned ON and OFF, there is a risk that the circuit cannot be pro-
tected even if this constant has been set to 1 (enabled), because the thermal value will be reset.
•
To detect overloads in good time, set the set value in constant L1-02 to a low setting.
•
When using a general-purpose motor (standard motor), the cooling ability will be lowered by f
1/4
(fre-
quency). Consequently, the frequency may cause motor overload protection (OL1) to occur, even below
the rated current. If operating using the rated current at a low frequency, use a special motor.
