Overload
Restriction
If the inverter’s output current exceeds a
preset current level you specify during
acceleration or constant speed, the
overload restriction feature automati-
cally reduces the output frequency to
restrict the overload. This feature does
not generate an alarm or trip event. You
can instruct the inverter to apply
overload restriction only during
constant speed, thus allowing higher
currents for acceleration. Or, you may
use the same threshold for both acceler-
ation and constant speed. In the case of
controlled deceleration, the inverter monitors both output current and DC bus voltage. The
inverter will increase output frequency to try to avoid a trip due to over-current or over-voltage
(due to regeneration).
When the inverter detects an overload, it must decelerate the motor to reduce the current until it
is less than the threshold. You can choose the rate of deceleration that the inverter uses to lower
the output current.
