The default value is set assuming that there is no external fan cooling the motor. If
an external fan is used this parameter can be set to 90% (or even higher).
The value is set as a percentage of the

motor's nominal current, not the drive's
nominal output current. Motor's nominal
current is the current which the motor can
stand in direct on-line use without being
overheated.
If you change the parameter 1

13 this
parameter is automatically restored to the
default value.
Setting this parameter (or parameter 1

does not affect to the maximum output current
of the drive. Parameter 1

7 alone determines
the maximum output current of the drive.
The motor thermal time is specific for the
motor design and it varies between different
motor manufacturers.
The default value for the time constant is
calculated basing on the motor name plate
data given with parameters 1

12 and 1

either of these parameters is set, this
parameter is set to default value.

This time can be set between 0.5—300 minutes.
This is the thermal time constant of the motor.The bigger the motor the bigger
the time constant. The time constant is the time within which the calculated thermal
stage has reached 63% of its final value.

(t

in
seconds is the time a motor can safely
operate at six times the rated current). If the
drive is in stop stage the time constant is
internally increased to three times the set
parameter value. The cooling in the stop stage
is based on convection and the time constant
is increased.
