1.8 Output reduction (derating)
Derating the DC1-S… variable frequency drive / limiting the maximum
continuous output current (I
2
) will generally be necessary if, during operation:
•
The ambient air temperature is higher than 40 °C
•
An installation altitude of 1.000 m is exceeded
•
The effective switching frequency is higher than the minimum value
The following tables specify the factors that need to be applied when
selecting a DC1-S… variable frequency drive if the drive will be run outside
these conditions:
Derating for ambient temperature
Derating for installation altitude
Derating for switching frequency
