1.2   Basic description 
Inverter has many advantages and offers many new  features, when compared to other inverter based systems, 
which might be used in crane applications. 
Inverter  The specific crane features for the inverter hardware and the special software are achieved by combining the 
experience and know-how of crane applications with the latest technology. 
Crane user interface  Interface with pre-designed locations for typical crane functions. The main part of this interface is carried out 
by a terminal strip, which has separated sections for signals with main, control and electronics voltage levels.
Brake control  Includes the brake contactor for disk brakes. Includes also DC-rectifier. 
Electrical Braking  Includes a braking transistor and a braking resistor. 
Control methods  Can be controlled by 
the electronic potentiometer control with 2-step or 3-step pushbuttons, 
the multistep control with 2-4-step controllers. 
Limit switch functions  Built-in slowdown (S11, S21) and stop limit switch (S12, S22) functions for both running directions. 
Speed supervision  Inverter includes a speed supervision unit SSU, which is separate from the inverter and not dependent on 
software. This safety circuitry is used to monitor the speed of the motor. In case of speed difference, 
overspeed or stall the speed supervision unit stops the motion immediately. 
Protections  Includes a motor thermal protection, which is based on motor temperature measurement by Klixon placed in 
motor windings. A great number of other protections included are shown in the technical data. 
Tested parameters  Inverter includes tested parameters with different motors for all power ratings. This is a benefit, which makes 
every inverter delivery a proven solution. The tested and pre-set motor parameters enable a quick start-up in 
crane commissioning.
