Carrier Frequency and Key Considerations for Inverter Operation

⚡ CARRIER FREQUENCY IN VARIABLE FREQUENCY DRIVES (VFD) A guide to understanding carrier frequency, its role, setup parameters, and how to select the right value for your application. Carrier Frequency is the switching frequency of power components (IGBT/MOSFET) when a VFD generates PWM waveforms to control a motor. Note that carrier frequency is different from......

Braking Resistor Calculation and Reference Table for Parker AC10 Drives

🔢 HOW TO CALCULATE A SUITABLE BRAKING RESISTOR FOR YOUR INVERTER The braking resistor is a crucial component for dissipating excess energy when the motor stops suddenly, preventing overvoltage (OV) faults. To select the correct resistor, two key factors must be determined: DC Bus voltage and desired dissipation power. 📘 1. Reference DC Bus Voltage......

Troubleshooting OV Error in Inverters: Causes and Solutions

⚡ Inverter Overvoltage Error (OV): Causes and Solutions ⚡ Overvoltage (OV) is one of the most common faults in inverters, especially in systems with high-inertia loads such as cranes, coil unwinders in the steel or cable industry, or in environments with unstable power supply. If not handled properly, this error may cause sudden shutdowns, disrupt......
