Summary
ƒ
Min./max. frequency during continuous duty:
–
Asynchronous motors: 30 Hz up to rated frequency (50 Hz or 60 Hz)
–
Permanent magnet motors: 30 Hz up to the stated maximum frequency as per the
rating plate
NOTICE! Higher frequencies are possible following consultation with customer ser-
vice!
ƒ
Observe additional measures with regard to EMC regulations (choice of frequency con-
verter, using filters, etc.).

In order to limit the surface temperature, the motor must be equipped with at least one
temperature limiter (1‑circuit temperature monitoring). A temperature controller (2‑circuit
temperature monitoring) is possible.
