5.6.2.1 Parameterising the slip regulator
The slip regulator is designed as a PI controller. In order to improve the response to setpoint
changes, the setpoint speed or setpoint frequency is added to the output (correcting variable) of the
slip regulator as feedforward control value.
• Unlike traditional speed controllers, the slip regulator only controls the slip.
• In the Lenze setting, the configuration of the slip regulator provides robustness and moderate
dynamics.
Slip regulator gain Vp
The setting range of the slip regulator gain Vp (C00972
) which leads to a stable operational
performance, mainly depends on the resolution of the speed sensor. There is a direct relationship
between encoder resolution and gain:
• The higher the encoder resolution, the higher the gain can be set.
The following table provides maximum and recommended slip regulator gains for encoder with
standard encoder increments:
