2.3 Thermal motor monitoring
Description
With the I 2 t monitoring you can monitor self−ventilated three−phase AC motors thermally
without sensors.
)
Note!
ƒ The I 2 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.

Warnings!
If you use the I 2 xt function in UL−approved systems for thermal motor
monitoring:
ƒ The I 2 xt function is UL−approved.
ƒ In UL−approved systems no additional protective measures for the motor are
required.
For devices from software version V3.9 (nameplate data: E82xV... xx 39), an
additional setting is required!
ƒ Activate the starting value 50% for the I 2 xt function:
– Add 128 to the value displayed in Code C0311.
ƒ Example:
– C0311 = 1 (Lenze setting)
– Setting for UL−approved systems: C0311 = 129

with 50 %.
The function has to be activated for
operation in UL−approved systems. When the device is connected to the
mains, the thermal motor load is
initialised with 0 % ("cold engine")
