TORQUE LIMIT (TORQUE)

The TORQUE setting determines the maximum torque for
accelerating and driving the motor. TORQUE is factory set at
150% of maximum drive current. You must recalibrate the
TORQUE setting if using a lower current rated motor. See
Figure 6 (page 16) for typical TORQUE and IR COMP settings.

1.

With no power applied to the drive, connect a DC ammeter
in series with the motor armature.

2.

Set the TORQUE trimpot to full CCW.

3.

Carefully lock the motor armature. Ensure that the motor
is firmly mounted.

4.

Apply line power. The motor should be stopped.

5.

Set the speed potentiometer or reference signal to
maximum speed. The motor should remain stopped.

6.

Slowly rotate the TORQUE trimpot clockwise (CW) until
the ammeter reads 150% of maximum motor armature
current.

7.

Set the speed adjust potentiometer or reference signal to
zero speed.

Warning

Although TORQUE is set to 150% of drive nameplate
current rating, continuous operating beyond that rating
may damage the motor. If you intend to operate beyond
the rating, contact your LEESON representative for
assistance.
