Thermistor Thermal Protection

Motors that are equipped with a thermistor can be protected from overheating. Input

terminal [5] has the unique ability to sense a thermistor resistance. When the
resistance value of the thermistor connected to terminal [TH] (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.

Description

ON

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

Protection

OFF An open circuit in the thermistor causes a trip,

and the inverter turns OFF the output

Valid for inputs:

C005 only

Required settings

(none)

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.

Example (requires input configuration—
see

page 3–49

):

NOTE: The trip level is hardware wise fixed and cannot be changed.
