How long can the motor leads be on a ATV212 S-flex Drive?
Issue:
Motor leads length on a ATV212 S-flex
Resolution:
The longer the cable, the greater the capacitance. Cable lengths greater than 164 ft (50 m) may appear as a ground fault condition to the drive. For installations where cable capacitances may be a problem, a reactor or motor protection filter can be installed between the drive and the motor.
The S-Flex is not intended to be used where extremely long output cable runs are required. Maximum output cable length for standard duty motors should be limited to 100 m (328 ft). For applications exceeding this cable length, consult the Drives Application Engineer.
