Key issues

Question 1: What is the difference between the two overload levels CT/VT of MX2 frequency converter, and what scenarios are they applicable to?

Answer: CT (constant torque/heavy load): 150%/60s overload, suitable for equipment such as conveyors, cranes, elevators, etc. that require high starting torque; VT (Variable Torque/Light Load): 120%/60s overload, suitable for variable torque loads such as fans and pumps, with higher rated current at the same power.

Question 2: How to quickly set the MX2 inverter to "keyboard controlled start stop+keyboard set frequency" through the keyboard?

Answer: 1 Set A001=02 (frequency command=keyboard); 2. Set A002=02 (run command=keyboard); 3. Set A003 (base frequency), A004 (highest frequency), H004 (number of motor poles); 4. Press RUN to start, ▲/▼ adjust the frequency, and STOP to stop.

Question 3: What must be done when the output line of the MX2 inverter motor exceeds 10 meters? Why?

Answer: An output reactor/surge filter must be installed (mandatory requirement for 400V level). Because the PWM waveform can generate surge voltage on the long line, it may break through the motor insulation, causing damage to the motor and reducing interference.
