Note!

ƒ

The I

xt monitoring is based on a mathematical model which calculates a thermal

motor utilisation from the motor currents measured.

ƒ

However, the I

2

xt monitoring is no full motor protection, since other influences on

the motor utilisation cannot be detected, like changed cooling conditions (e.g.
cooling air flow interrupted or too warm).

ƒ

You can only obtain full motor protection if the motor is equipped with a PTC
thermistor or a thermal contact.
