Derating
When dimensioning the drive you should take into account the factor K
total
. It is
calculated from the factors K
height
, K
temp
and K
duty
:
K
total
= K
height
* K
temp
* K
duty
The factor K
total
can be used to calculate the permitted torque:
Permitted torque = K
total
* Rated torque M
N

Installation height [m above sea level]
K
height
Example:
Installation height = 2000 m above sea level
According to the diagram (Fig. 12-1), at this installation height the permitted torque is
approx. 90 % of the rated torque M
N
.
This gives the following for factor K
height
:
K
height
= 0.9.
