Torque Control Algorithms

The inverter generates the motor output according

to the V/f algorithm selected. Parameter A044
selects the inverter algorithm for generating the

frequency output, as shown in the diagram to the

right (A244 for 2nd motor). The factory default is
00 (constant torque).

Review the following description to help you choose the best torque control algorithm for

your application.

The built-in V/f curve are oriented toward developing constant torque or variable torque

characteristics (see graphs below). You can select either constant torque or reduced

torque V/f control.

Constant and Variable (Reduced) Torque – The

graph at right shows the constant torque

characteristic from 0Hz to the base frequency
A003. The voltage remains constant for output

frequencies higher than the base frequency. The

graph below (left) shows the general variable
(reduced) torque curve. The range from 0Hz to

the base frequency is the variable characteristic.

The graph above (right) shows the variable (reduced) torque curve, having constant

torque from 0Hz to 10% of the base frequency. This helps to achieve higher torque at low
speed even with reduced torque curve.

Manual Torque Boost – The Constant

and Variable Torque algorithms
feature an adjustable

torque boost

curve. When the motor load has a lot of

inertia or starting friction, you may
need to increase the low frequency

starting torque characteristics by

boosting the voltage above the normal
V/f ratio (shown at right). The function

attempts to compensate for voltage

drop in the motor primary winding in
the low speed range.

The boost is applied from zero to 1/2 the base frequency. You set the breakpoint of the

boost (point A on the graph) by using parameters A042 and A043. The manual boost is
calculated as an addition to the standard V/f curve.
