Functions (continued) Variable speed drives Altivar 12 Application functions b Operating speed range Determines the two frequency limits which define the speed range permitted by the machine under actual operating conditions within the specified torque limits.
Variable speed drives Functions (continued) PID ramp PID reference PID feedback FBS + PIC X±1 b PID regulator Used for simple control of a flow rate or a pressure with a sensor which supplies a feedback signal adapted to the drive. This function is suitable for pump and fan applications. PID reversal RPG PID regulator RIG Multiplier Manual setpoint Altivar 12 Auto HSP Man. LSP Speed ramp Auto/man.
Variable speed drives Functions (continued) Altivar 12 b Ramp time switching This function is used to switch two acceleration and deceleration ramp times, . which can be set separately. Enabled by means of 1 assignable logic input. It is suitable for machines with fast speed correction in steady state and high-speed lathes with acceleration and deceleration limiting above certain speeds.
Functions (continued) Variable speed drives Altivar 12 b Limiting low speed operating time The motor is stopped automatically after a period of operation at low speed (LSP). This time can be set between 0.1 and 999 seconds (0 corresponds to an unlimited time). The motor restarts automatically on a ramp when the reference reappears. This function is suitable for automatic stops/starts, especially in pump applications.
Functions (continued) Variable speed drives Altivar 12 b 2nd current limit A 2nd current limit can be configured between 0.25 and 1.5 times the nominal drive current and can be used to limit the torque and the rise in motor temperature. Switching between the two current limits is enabled via a logic input or via the Modbus serial link. 1 b Automatic DC injection This function enables standstill DC injection, which can be set between 0 and 1.
Functions (continued) Variable speed drives Altivar 12 b Fault relay, unlocking The fault relay is energized when the drive is powered up and is not faulty. It opens in the event of a fault or when the drive is powered down.
Functions (continued) Variable speed drives Altivar 12 b Underload detection This function stops the motor when it is underloaded. The function is active in . steady state. If the current is below an underload threshold for an adjustable period of time, . the drive locks in underload fault mode. The current threshold is adjustable between 20% and 100% of the nominal motor current value. Hysteresis of 10% is applied to this threshold to confirm the end of underload conditions.
Variable speed drives Functions (continued) Altivar 12 1 Pump-specific application functions (r) The main objective here is to control a complete pumping installation using a single Altivar 12 drive by ensuring constant pressure in the system whatever the flow rate.
Functions (continued) Variable speed drives Altivar 12 b Underload detection See page 34. 1 b Overload detection See page 34. b Sleep/Wake-up Allows the variable pump to come to a complete stop when the flow rate is considered too low, below an adjustable “sleep threshold” (LSP+ SLE) and time delay (tLS). 2 When the system is in “sleep” state, if the PID feedback value (showing the pressure downstream of the pump) falls below a “wake up” threshold (UPP), the variable pump is restarted. Motor.
Functions (continued) Variable speed drives Altivar 12 b Quick start The quick start function aims to overcome the problems associated with the high regulation gains that are necessary at start-up but inappropriate for regulation.. The drive accelerates linearly on a ramp (ACC) until its speed reaches the configured quick start threshold (SFS).. Once it reaches this threshold (SFS), PID regulation begins.
