motor drive operates more than one motor, please pay attention to starting and changing
the motor.
Power Transmission Mechanism
Pay attention to reduced lubrication when operating gear reduction motors, gearboxes,
belts and chains, etc. over longer periods at low speeds. At high speeds of 50/60Hz and
above, lifetime reducing noises and vibrations may occur.
Motor torque
The torque characteristics of a motor operated by an AC motor drive and commercial
mains power are different.
Below you’ll find the torque-speed characteristics of a standard motor (4-pole, 15kW):
