Selection Method

Basic Selection Principles

  1. Selection Based on Motor Power: The rated power of the VFD should be greater than or equal to the rated power of the motor
  2. Consider Load Characteristics: Choose the appropriate VFD type based on different load types
  3. Consider Usage Environment: Factors such as temperature, humidity, and altitude will affect the actual output capability of the VFD
  4. Reserve Capacity: It is recommended that the VFD capacity be 10%-20% larger than the actual motor demand

Load Types and Selection

Load Type Load Characteristics Selection Suggestion Suitable Model
Constant Torque Load Torque is constant, independent of speed VFD capacity ≥ 1.2 times motor power M type
Fan and Pump Load Torque is proportional to the square of speed VFD capacity ≥ motor power F type/P type
Variable Load Load changes greatly VFD capacity ≥ 1.5 times motor power M type
Impact Load Load has large impact VFD capacity ≥ 2 times motor power M type

Derating Conditions

Environmental Condition Derating Factor Remarks

Altitude 1000-2000m Derate 1% for every 100m increase -
Altitude 2000-4000m Derate 2% for every 100m increase -
Large power voltage fluctuations Derate 10%-20% -

Selection Result: SK320-0055-P

Precautions

Selection Precautions

  1. Power Capacity Confirmation: The VFD has a large input current, ensure sufficient power capacity
  2. Motor Parameter Matching: Ensure the VFD matches the motor parameters
  3. Starting Torque Requirements: For loads requiring high starting torque, vector control mode is recommended
  4. Harmonic Interference: VFDs generate harmonics that may affect other equipment, filters may be required if necessary
  5. EMC Requirements: Confirm whether additional EMC measures are needed based on the usage scenario

Usage Limitations

  1. Maximum Power Limitation: SK320 series supports a maximum of 11kW
  2. Long-Distance Wiring: When output cables exceed 50m, it is recommended to install output reactors
  3. High-Temperature Environment: When temperature exceeds 40°C, derating or enhanced heat dissipation is necessary
  4. Continuous Overload: Long-term overload operation is not allowed

Installation and Maintenance

Installation Requirements

  1. Installation Direction: Install vertically to ensure good heat dissipation
  2. Installation Clearance: Left and right sides ≥50mm, top and bottom ≥100mm
  3. Ventilation Requirements: Ensure good ventilation around, no obstacles
  4. Grounding Requirements: Reliable grounding, grounding resistance ≤4Ω

Maintenance

  1. Regular Inspection: Check once a quarter
  2. Cleaning Maintenance: Regularly clean cooling fans and heat sinks
  3. Wiring Inspection: Check if terminal connections are loose
  4. Parameter Backup: Regularly back up parameter settings

Common Fault Handling

Fault Phenomenon Possible Causes Handling Methods
Cannot Start Abnormal input power Check power voltage and wiring
Incorrect parameter settings Restore factory settings and reset
Overload Protection Load too heavy Reduce load or replace with larger capacity VFD
Acceleration time too short Extend acceleration time
Overheat Protection Ambient temperature too high Enhance ventilation or derate
Cooling fan failure Replace cooling fan
Overvoltage Protection Input voltage too high Check power grid voltage
Deceleration time too short Extend deceleration time or add braking resistor
