PARAMETERS
4.5.2 Load pattern selection (Pr. 14)
You can select the optimum output characteristic (V/F characteristic) for the application and load characteristics.
Parameter
Number Name Initial Value Setting Range Description
14 Load pattern selection 10 For constant-torque load
1 For variable-torque loads
The above parameters can be set when Pr. 160 User group read selection = "0". (Refer to page 190)
(1) For constant-torque load (setting "0")
At or less than the base frequency voltage, the output voltage varies linearly with the
output frequency.
Set this value when driving the load whose load torque is constant if the speed varies,
e.g. conveyor, cart or roll drive.
(2) For variable-torque load (setting "1", initial value)
At or less than the base frequency voltage, the output voltage varies with the output
frequency in a square curve.
Set this value when driving the load whose load torque varies in proportion to the
square of the speed, e.g. fan or pump.

POINT
If the load is a fan or pump, select "For rated torque load (setting "0")" in any of the
following cases.
When a blower of large moment of inertia (J) is accelerated in a short time
For constant-torque load such as rotary pump or gear pump
When load torque increases at low speed, e.g. screw pump
