Technical specifications
Choice of frequency converter As the torque is proportional to the current, bear in mind
All frequency converters are sized according to the same that constant torque drives require the same output current
principle, the required output current. Vacon converters have regardless of output frequency. The converters can also be
two different current ratings, ICT and IVT. ICT is used for appli- used for multi-motor applications. In that case, the sum of the
cations requiring high dynamics (load changes and fast motor rated currents must be smaller than the converter
ramp times), the sizing allows for a 50% overload for 1 min- rated current. We recommend the use of the ICT rating for
ute every 10 minutes as well as a starting current of 250% of
multi-motor applications.

require overload, usually centrifugal pumps and and fans.

Vacon user interface – MMI
Vacon frequency converters feature a menu-structured al-
pha-numeric control panel as standard. The panel is de-
tachable and it can be used with all Vacon CX, CXL and CXS
frequency converters.
It is possible to connect an RS-232C serial cable to the
frequency converter. The cable can be used to
l keep the control panel separated from the converter
(e.g. for door installation)
l connect the frequency converter to a PC for the use of
PC-tool programs
The maximum length of the cable is 10–15 m depending on
ambient conditions.
