Limiting the Motor Torque (Torque Limit Function)
This function allows limitation of motor shaft torque independently for each of the four quadrants. The torque
limit can be set as a fixed value using parameters or as a variable value using an analog input. The torque limit
function can be used with Open Loop Vector and Closed Loop Vector control only.
Related Parameters
* A setting value of 100% is equal to the motor rated torque.
Multi-function Output (H2-01 to H2-03)
Setting the Torque Limit Using Parameters
Using L7-01 to L7-04, four torque limits in the following directions can be set individually: Forward drive,
reverse drive, forward regenerative and reverse regenerative (see Fig 6.18)
Fig 6.18 Torque Limit Parameters
Using a Digital Output to Signalize Operation at the Torque Limit
If a multifunction output is set to this function (H2-01 to H2-03 is set to “30”), the output is switched ON
when the motor output torque reaches one of the torque limits.
