[%]: Percentage value of the torque-
producing component or torque-producing
current in the motor in the range 0–1. The value
is typically from the design of the application.
The IEC 61800-9-2 standard for
Ecodesign of Power Drive
Systems
allows the use of reference values. Determine the
motor cosine phi value by the motor nominal power rating
as kVA and with linear interpolation from the reference
values in

For system calculations and energy efficiency report, use
the MyDrive ecoSmart tool.
The power loss of the frequency converter provided by
MyDrive ecoSmart:
•
Power loss @ 50% motor frequency and 50%
motor current = 249 W.
•
Power loss @ 50% motor frequency and 100%
motor current = 490 W.
The power loss of the frequency converter at 50% motor
frequency and 75% torque-producing current are found by
2-dimensional interpolation as 370 W.
Loss
VLT
= 370 W.
Alternatively, identify the power loss of the frequency
converter by entering the point of operation in MyDrive
ecoSmart as a user-defined operating point.
To determine the power loss of the CDM, sum up the
power losses in the operating point of the AHF and the
frequency converter:
Loss
CDM
= Loss
AHF
+ Loss
VLT
= 110 W + 370 W = 480 W
