AC BOOST

(ACCELERATION BOOST)

AC BOOST is similar to FX BOOST, but is only active when the drive is accelerating.

During acceleration, the output voltage is increased according to the setting of AC

BOOST, which increases motor torque. Refer to the diagram below. AC BOOST,

like FX BOOST, is used in applications with high-inertia loads.
The diagram below illustrates how FX BOOST and AC BOOST alter the V/Hz ratio

to increase motor torque.
FX BOOST sets the boost at 0 Hz (approximately 15% in the example above), and

as the output frequency approaches 30 Hz, the boost decreases to zero.

AC BOOST

AC BOOST only functions during acceleration. In the diagram above, the drive

is operating at 35 Hz and is then commanded to 50 Hz. The output voltage is

increased by the AC BOOST setting (approximately 15% in the example above)

during acceleration to the new speed set point. Once the new set point is reached,

the output voltage returns to normal.

SLIP CMP

(SLIP COMPENSATION)

SLIP COMPENSATION is used to compensate for changes in motor speed (“slip”)

which occur due to changes in load. In a standard AC induction motor, as the load

on the motor increases, the motor current increases and the motor shaft speed

decreases. By increasing the output frequency in response to the increased motor

current, SLIP COMPENSATION is able to counteract the reduction in motor speed

due to increased load. This parameter is useful in applications where precise

speed regulation is needed, even under changing load conditions. The use of SLIP

COMPENSATION can result in speed regulation of less than 1% of base speed in

most applications. SLIP COMPENSATION is often set to 3%, which is the standard

slip rating of most AC induction motors.
