Abstract
A driver for an induction motor includes a voltage limiter which limits an upper limit value of an output voltage from an invertor circuit in accordance with an output frequency command, a lowest frequency limiter which limits a lower limit of an output frequency from the invertor circuit, a forward rotation limiter which outputs a first power supply interruption signal when the output frequency from the invertor circuit reaches the upper limit, a reverse rotation limiter which outputs a second power supply interruption signal when a reverse rotational speed of the motor reaches a reverse rotation limit level, and a low-speed overload detector which outputs a third power supply interruption signal when a state in which the second power supply interruption signal is not output continues in a low speed abnormality state.
