L8-27

(04DD)

Overcurrent Detection Gain

Sets the PM motor overcurrent detection level as a percentage of the motor rated current value.

300.0%

(0.0 - 1000.0%)

Note:
  • If the setting value for L8-27 is the same or almost the same as the setting value for L7-xx [Torque Limit], the drive can detect oC2 [Overcurrent2].

  • Set L8-27 = 0.0 Hz to disable this function. Usually do not set L8-27 = 0.0.

  • If the drive rated current is much higher than the motor rated current, PM motor magnets can demagnetize when current flows at the drive overcurrent detection level. When you set a low overcurrent detection level to prevent PM motor demagnetization, make sure that you adjust L8-27.
