Peak voltage on motor
When a transistor in the inverter is opened, the voltage
across the motor increases by a dU/dt ratio that de-
pends on:
-
the motor cable (type, cross-section, length,
shielded or unshielded)
-
inductance
The natural induction causes an overshot U
PEAK
in the
motor voltage before it stabilizes itself at a level which
depends on the voltage in the intermediate circuit. The
rise time and the peak voltage U
PEAK
affect the service
life of the motor. If the peak voltage is too high, motors
without phase coil insulation are the ones that will pri-
marily be affected. If the motor cable is short (by a few
yards), the rise time and peak voltage are lower.
If the motor cable is long (328 ft [100 m]), the rise time
and peak voltage will increase.
If very small motors without phase coil insulation are
used, it is recommended that an LC filter be fitted after
the adjustable frequency drive.
Typical values for the rise time and peak voltage
U
PEAK
are measured on the motor terminals between
two phases.
To obtain approximate values for cable lengths and
voltages not mentioned below, use the following rules
of thumb:
1. Rise time increases/decreases proportionally with
cable length.
2. U
PEAK
= DC link voltage x 1.9
(DC link voltage = Line voltage x 1.35).
