5-8. Calculation of power consumption
·
Here are simple formulae for calculating of power consumption generated in the VSP-input type and the
six-input type. As for the constant required for calculation, contact our sales representative.
(1) VSP-input type (Inverter controlled 120-degree commutation mode, bottom arm PWM chopping)
(Applicable models: ECN30102, ECN30105, ECN30107, ECN30204, ECN30206, ECN30207)
