Selection of a suitable converter or Motor Module for drives with quadratic load torque
The rated output current of the converter or Motor Module must be at least as high as the motor current I
required load point.
If the motor is operated at the required load point at rated output (M
depicted in the diagram above, the rated output current of the converter or Motor Module must be at least as high as
the rated current I of the motor.
Mot-rated
If the motor is operated at the required load point below its rated output at partial load (constant flux range with rated
flux), the rated output current of the converter or Motor Module must be at least as high as the motor current I
the load point, which can be calculated with acceptable accuracy for typical asynchronous motors according to the
formula below:

In drives with Siemens SIMOTICS SD series 1LG6 standard asynchronous motors and Siemens SIMOTICS TN
series N-compact 1LA8 / 1PQ8 / 1LL8 trans-standard asynchronous motors, the motors can be operated at full rated
torque or full rated power even in converter-fed operation. By contrast with direct line operation where they are
utilized according to temperature class 130 (previously temperature class B) at the nominal working point, they are
utilized in converter-fed operation according to temperature class 155 (previously temperature class F) owing to stray
losses.
If the motors may only be utilized according to temperature class 130 (previously temperature class B) in converter-
fed operation as well, torque or power derating will be required, as illustrated in the diagram below. The level of
derating depends on the motor series and ranges, for example, from 10 % for SIMOTICS SD series 1LG6 standard
asynchronous motors to 15% for SIMOTICS TN series N-compact 1LA8 1PQ8 / 1LL8 trans-standard asynchronous
motors. For further information, please refer to Catalog D 81.1 SIMOTICS Low-Voltage Motors.
