I. ABSTRACT
In a cement mill there are
applications that require high starting torques
like draft inducer fans and ball mills.
Sometimes a larger motor is required just to
give enough starting torque to accelerate the
load. This paper will review how adjustable
speed drives can be used to give high starting
torque on a motor sized for running torque,
not starting torque, with a side benefit of low
starting current. This allows the user to install
a smaller motor one sized for running the
load, not starting it and gives adjustable
speed capability for process flow control and
speed control.

Figure 2. A series of speed torque curves with
linear voltages per Hz withcut boost. The
solid lines show the part available on an ASD.
As can be seen in Fig. 2, the ASD
makes available the portion of the speed
torque curve at rated torques and below. That
portion above rated torque - in dashed lines
is not available continuously. (Most ASDs
allow the load to have 150% of rated amps for
60 seconds, allowing roughly 150% overload
torques for a short period of time.
