Abstract
A temperature monitoring device for protecting the winding of an electronically commutated electric motor from being heated over a specified limit temperature TG regardless of the rotational speed includes a phase current detection device for detecting the phase current IWinding for the motor windings, an overcurrent switch-off device for switching off the electric motor if a maximum permissible phase current IShutdown is exceeded, and an overcurrent monitoring device, which is connected to the overcurrent switch-off device, in order to transmit to it a switch-off signal if the detected phase current IWinding exceeds the maximum permissible phase current IShutdown ascertained by a detection and computing device, wherein an algorithm in which the measured ambient temperature TU is incorporated is used when ascertaining the maximum permissible phase current IShutdown.
