Thermistor Thermal Protection

Motors that are equipped with a PTC thermistor can be protected from overheating.
Input terminal [5] has the unique ability to sense a thermistor resistance. When the resis-
tance value of the thermistor connected to terminal [PTC] at [5] and [L] is more than
3 k

Ω ±10%, the inverter enters the Trip Mode, turns OFF the output to the motor, and

indicates the trip status E35. Use this function to protect the motor from overheating

Thermistor Thermal
Protection

Sensor When a thermistor is connected to terminals [5]

and [L], the inverter checks for over-temperature
and will cause trip (E35) and turn OFF the
output to the motor

Open

An open circuit in the thermistor causes a trip,
and the inverter turns OFF the output

Valid for inputs:

C005 only

Required settings:

C085

Notes:

Be sure the thermistor is connected to terminals [5]
and [L]. If the resistance is above the threshold the
inverter will trip. When the motor cools down
enough, the thermistor resistance will change
enough to permit you to clear the error. Press the
STOP/Reset key to clear the error.
