Startup with synchronous reluctance motors (SYN-R control)

INFORMATION

Check the operation of synchronous reluctance motors through a test application. Stable operation in this operating mode cannot be ensured for all application cases.
  1. Connect the motor to the inverter. Adhere to the nominal motor voltage when connecting.
  2. Enter the motor data from the motor nameplate:
    • P1-07 = Nominal voltage of the motor
    • P1-08 = Rated current of the motor
    • P1-09 = Rated frequency of the motor
    • P1-10 = Rated speed of the motor
    • P1-14 = 201 (extended parameter menu)
    • P4-01 = 7 (SYN-R speed control).
    • P4-05 = Power factor
  3. Set the maximum speed P1-01 and minimum speed P1-02.
  4. Set the acceleration and deceleration ramps using P1-03 and P1-04.
  5. Start the "Auto-tune" automatic motor measuring procedure as described in chapter Automatic measuring procedure ("Auto-tune").
  6. In case of insufficient control performance, the control behavior can be optimized via the parameter P7-10.
