Operation below 100% current causes the temperature calculation to account for
motor cooling.
Motor OL Hertz (47) defines the frequency where motor overload capacity derate
should begin. The motor overload capacity is reduced when operating below Motor OL
Hertz (47). For all settings of Motor OL Hertz (47) other than zero, the overload
capacity is reduced to 70% at an output frequency of zero.
Motor NP FLA (42) is multiplied by Motor OL Factor (48) to select the rated current for
the motor thermal overload. This can be used to raise or lower the level of current that
will cause the motor thermal overload to trip. The effective overload factor is a
combination of Motor OL Hertz (47) and Motor OL Factor (48).
