4.8.1 Acoustic Noise
The acoustic noise from the frequency converter comes from three sources:
1.
DC intermediate circuit coils.
2.
Integral fan.
3.
RFI filter choke.

4.9.1 du/dt Conditions
NB!
380-690V
To avoid premature ageing of motors (without phase insulation paper or other insulation reinforcement) not designed for frequency converter operation, GE
strongly recommend to fit a du/dt filter or a Sine-Wave filter on the output of the frequency converter.
When a transistor in the inverter bridge switches, the voltage across the motor increases by a du/dt ratio depending on:
-
the motor cable (type, cross-section, length screened or unscreened)
-
inductance
The natural induction causes an overshoot U
PEAK
in the motor voltage before it stabilises itself at a level depending on the voltage in the intermediate circuit. The
rise time and the peak voltage U
PEAK
affect the service life of the motor. If the peak voltage is too high, especially motors without phase coil insulation are affected.
If the motor cable is short (a few metres), the rise time and peak voltage are lower.
If the motor cable is long (100 m), the rise time and peak voltage are higher.
Peak voltage on the motor terminals is caused by the switching of the IGBTs. The AF-650 GP complies with the demands of IEC 60034-25 regarding motors
designed to be controlled by frequency converters. The AF-650 GP also complies with IEC 60034-17 regarding Norm motors controlled by frequency converters
