Application and Overload Selections
Select the Overload to Suit the Application
Set C6-01 (Heavy Duty: constant torque, Normal Duty: High carrier, variable torque) depending on the appli-
cation. The setting ranges for the Inverter carrier frequency, overload capability and maximum output fre-
quency depend on the setting of C6-01. For applications like fans and blowers (quadratic torque characteristic)
set C6-01 to 1 or 2 (Normal Duty 1 or 2). For applications with a constant torque characteristic set C6-01 to 0
(Heavy Duty).

Heavy Duty / Constant Torque Normal Duty / Variable Torque
Constant torque means a constant load torque for all motor
speed. Typical applications are pushers, conveyors, cranes, and
other high friction or heavy loads. These applications may
require overload capability.
Variable torque means that the load torque will increase as the
speed increases. Typical applications are fans and pumps. Nor-
mally not much overload capability is required.
