1-90 Motor Thermal Protection
Option: Function:
the motor is overloaded. Programme a
warning signal via one of the digital outputs.
The signal appears in the event of a warning
and if the frequency converter trips (thermal
warning).

NOTICE
Check that the selected supply voltage follows the
specification of the thermistor element.
ETR
The calculations estimate the need for a lower load at
lower speed due to less cooling from the fan incorporated
in the motor.
