Introduction, V/f control, vector control
Specifying the control mode
The converter has three open-loop control and closed-loop control modes for induction
motors:
●
Open-loop control with U/f-characteristic (U/f control)
●
Field-oriented control (sensorless vector control)
●
Speed control (vector control with encoder)
The control modes have different degrees of suitability when it comes to controlling a
position-controlled axis:
Vector control with encoder
Sensorless vector control
U/f control
With the position control, provides the best
results
Limited functionality of the position
control.
•
Low accuracy
•
Travel to fixed stop is not possi-
ble
Not recommended in conjunction
with position control.
•
Low accuracy
•
Low dynamic response
•
Travel to fixed stop is not possi-
ble
It is not permissible to use vector control in the following cases:
●
If the motor is too small in comparison to the inverter (the rated motor power may not be
less than one quarter of the rated inverter power)
●
If several motors are connected to one inverter
●
If a power contactor is used between the inverter and motor and is opened while the
motor is powered up
●
If the maximum motor speed exceeds the following values:
Inverter pulse frequency
2 kHz
4 kHz and higher
