摘要： An electrical converter unit and a method for reducing thermal stress of a power semiconductor switch, such as an IGBT, of an electrical converter unit, the electrical converter unit comprising at least a gate control circuit wherein the electrical converter unit controls an electrical motor. The method comprises determining load and estimating required motor current based on the determined load and/or a predetermined speed profile. The electrical converter unit has at least a first operating state and a second operating state. The second operating state is used if predetermined criteria is fulfilled, the predetermined criteria relating to at least one of the following: estimated required current, measured motor speed, temperature of the power semiconductor switch and/or electrical converter unit, temperature model of the power semiconductor switch and/or electrical converter unit. In the second operating state a lower switching frequency of the power semiconductor switch is used than in the first operating state, and in the second operating state a higher switching speed of the power semiconductor switch is used than in the first operating state.

摘要： It is desired that elevators are not operated when the brake is not completely released. Thus, the disengaging of brakes must be monitored or guaranteed otherwise. For providing guaranteed opening, the current for opening the brake is determined and then an additional current is provided to the brakes in order to guarantee the opening. The current for opening the brake is determined by doing a test sequence for each brake individually. In the test sequence, one brake is used to hold the elevator. Then, a momentum is applied to the elevator for moving the elevator car. The current is determined by increasing the current to the engaged brake gradually until the elevator moves. When the movement is detected, the current value is stored. When the elevator is operated regularly, the additional current is added to the stored value.

摘要： An elevator includes an elevator car and lifting machinery including a traction sheave, an electromechanical machinery brake, and an electric motor having a rotor. The traction sheave, the electromechanical machinery brake and the rotor of the electric motor are connected via a shaft, whereby the lifting machinery moves the elevator car upwards and downwards in a vertically extending elevator shaft controlled by a main control unit. The direction of rotation and the rotation speed of the rotor of the electric motor is detected with a sensor, the amplitude of the brake current provided to the machinery brake is measured, the amplitude of the brake current is increased until a first moment when the shaft and thereby also the rotor of the electric motor starts to rotate, which is detected by the sensor, the brake current is disconnected momentarily at the first moment, the torque acting on the shaft and the corresponding load in the elevator car at the first moment is determined based on the measured amplitude of the brake current at the first moment, whereby said torque is used in the main control unit for controlling the lifting machinery.
