− | + | Parameters {{param|FUV}} and {{param|FOV}} define the nominal [[HV DC bus]] voltage range that drive operates in. The purpose of these parameters are to set protect equipment working in a condition where supply voltage is either too low or too high, which is considered a fault condition (see also [[Overvoltage and undervoltage faults]]). FOV also has a special purpose to set a limit where [[regenerative resistor]] will start activating and preventing excessive supply voltage build-up during motor decelerations. | |

− | + | It is recommended to set FOV high enough to allow some supply voltage increase during motor decelerations and to allow normal voltage fluctuiations of power source. Guidelines as starting point: | |
− | FOV | + | *On regulated power supplies, set FOV only little bit above the nominal voltage, however at least 3%. Examples |
− | * 115 VAC mains - FOV = 1.41*115*1.2 | + | **48 VDC regulated PSU - FOV 49.5 V |
− | * 230 VAC mains - FOV = | + | *On unregulated DC PSU, set FOV at least 12% above nominal voltage because AC input voltage fluctuations will also change output voltage of the PSU. Examples: |
+ | **50 VDC unregulated PSU - FOV 56 V | ||
+ | *On mains AC powered drive (such as Argon), set FOV at least 10% above nominal (15-20% recommended, if possible) HV DC bus voltage after rectification. Nominal HV DC bus voltage can be calculated by formula 1.41*V_AC. Examples: | ||
+ | **115 VAC mains - FOV = 1.41*115*1.2 = 195 V | ||
+ | **230 VAC mains - FOV = 1.41*230*1.2 = 389 V | ||
− | + | ===FOV on Argon with firmware 2.0.0 or earlier=== | |
+ | FOV parameter works differently on Argon firmware 2.0 and earlier (including 1.x series). On these versions the FOV sets the fault threshold voltage and activation of regenerative resistor happens when HV DC bus voltage rises above 91% of FUV. Because of this, it is necessary to set value the following way: | ||
− | + | **115 VAC mains - FOV = 1.41*115*1.2/0.91 = 213 V | |
− | + | **230 VAC mains - FOV = maximum settable value | |
