Parallel connection of motors to a single frequency
inverter
DV6 frequency inverters can control several parallel-connected
motors. If the motors are to run at different speeds, this must be
implemented through the number of connected pole pairs and/or
the gear transmission ratio.
Connecting motors inparallel reduces the load resistance at the
frequency inverter output, reduces the total stator inductivity is
and increases the leakage capacitance. As a result, the current
distortion is larger than it is in a single-motor circuit. To reduce the
current distortion, chokes or sinusoidal filters can be connected at
the frequency inverter output.
If motors with widely differing ratings (for example 0.75 kW and
4.0 kW) are connected in parallel to the output of a frequency
inverter, problems may arise during starting and at low speeds.
Motors with a low rating may be unable to develop the required
torque. This is due to the relatively high ohmic resistances of their
stators. They require a higher voltage during the start phase and
at low speeds.
Motor cable
To ensure electromagnetic compatibility, use only screened motor
cables. The length of the motor cable and the associated use of
further components has an influence on the motor control mode
and the performance characteristics. In parallel operation (multiple
motors connected to the frequency inverter output), the resulting
cable lengths

Keep the motor cables as short as possible as it will positively influ-
ence the drive’s characteristics.

Caution!
If a frequency inverter controls a number of motors in
parallel, the contactors for the individual motors must be
designed for AC
-
3 operation. Do not use the mains
contactors listed in table in the appendix (Section “Mains
contactors“, Page 195). These mains contactors are desi-
gned only for the mains (primary) currents of the
frequency inverter. If they are used in multiple-motor
circuits, their contacts may weld.
h
The current consumption of all connected motors must
not exceed the rated output current
I
2N
of the frequency
inverter.
h
Electronic motor protection can not be used when opera-
ting the frequency inverter with a several connected
motors. You must however, protect each motor with ther-
mistors and/or overload relays.
h
With long motor cables, the leakage currents caused by
parasitic cable capacities can cause the “earth fault”
message. In this case, motor filters must be used.
