Issue:
Wanting to use a smaller rated Altivar drive unit on a motor.
Product Line:
Altivar Drives
Environment:
All drive series
Cause:
Applying an underrated VFD to a motor
Resolution:
No. The drive needs to be sized for the appropriate horsepower or full load amps of the motor. Using a drive on a higher rated motor is a misapplication.
