Abstract:
An exemplary wire clamping assembly is disclosed which includes a support body, a clamping strip and at least one clamping screw. The support body can include a first surface and a second surface, the at least one clamping screw being adapted to direct a clamping force to a clamping force receiving portion of the clamping strip for clamping at least one wire between the clamping strip and the first surface of the support body. The clamping strip can be a flexible strip, and the clamping force receiving portion of the clamping strip is, in use, located on the side of the second surface of the support body.
Abstract:
A method and an apparatus are provided for maximizing energy efficiency of an electric drive system including an electric motor and a load. In the method, the torque characteristics of the system can be selected from two types of behavior: linear and quadratic behavior of a torque of the motor in respect to a rotational speed of the motor. The method gathers a plurality of data points and with which behavior the data points correlate best. The torque characteristics to be used are determined on the basis of the correlation, and the motor is controlled on the basis of the determined torque characteristics. The apparatus implements the method.
Abstract:
An exemplary arrangement and method for a power semiconductor switch, where a first current between a first electrode and a second electrode can be controlled based on a control voltage between a third electrode and the first electrode. The arrangement includes an inductance connected in series with the power semiconductor switch, wherein a first end of the inductance is connected to the first electrode, first measuring source for generating a first measurement voltage based on the first end's voltage with respect to a reference potential, second measuring source for generating a second measurement voltage on the basis of the inductance's second end voltage with respect to the reference potential, a comparator for comparing the first measurement voltage with the second measurement voltage, and driver for generating the control voltage. The driver being configured to generate a first control voltage level and a second voltage level of the control voltage.
