OverviewGeneral-purpose variable frequency drive for quick commissioning and precise motor control. Compact design with factory settings to enable immediate operation and optimized energy use.
Key features- Simple commissioning: 14-parameter basic setup with default settings suitable for most applications and contactor-style connections for straightforward wiring.
- Intuitive keypad control: precise digital control via the integrated keypad.
- Application macros: Industrial, Pump and Fan modes to optimise performance for the application.
- Internal Category C1 EMC filter: built-in filter (Cat C1, EN61800-3:2004) reduces installation cost and complexity.
- On-board communications: Modbus RTU and CAN as standard for integration.
- Compact footprint and factory-configured defaults for fast start-up.
Motor controlSensorless vector control supporting multiple motor types:
- IM — Induction Motor: IE2, IE3, IE4 & IE5 induction motors
- PM — AC Permanent Magnet Motor
- BLDC — Brushless DC Motor
- SynRM — Synchronous Reluctance Motor
- LSPM — Line Start PM Motor
Installation & commissioning14-parameter basic setup combined with contactor-style connections for simplified wiring. Factory default parameters cover common installations; fine tuning available via the keypad.
