…: 2.2 A – The variable frequency drive’s rated current
(output current) guarantees that the motor will be supplied with the
required rated current (1.9 A).
1.10 Performance reduction (derating)
A power reduction on the DB1 variable frequency drive or limitation of the
maximum permanent output current (I

) is generally required if the installa-
tion altitude is greater than 1000 m during operation.
