VLT® Decentral FCD 300
The VLT® FCD 300 is a complete frequency converter designed for decentral mounting. It can be mounted on the machine/wall -close to the motor - or directly on the motor.
The decentral design reduces the need for central control panels and space-consuming motor control cabinets are eliminated. In addition, the need for long screened motor cables is significantly reduced.
Features and benefits
Power range
0.37 – 3.3 kW, 380–480 V
Enclosure
IP66/Type 4X (indoor) as standard with special painting treatment
Plug-and-drive
The FCD 300 has a pluggable ‘twin-part’ design –installation box and electronic part (inverter). All the connections are made in the installation box, which has maintenance-free Cage Clamp connectors and looping facilities for power and fieldbus cables. Servicing can be performed in nearly no time simply by plugging another electronic part.
Hygienic
Protected in a small, tight, robust, dirt repelling enclosure the FCD 300 highly meets the conditions in the Food & Beverage industry, where frequent wash downs are required.
Flexible installation
The FCD 300 series facilitates internal power line looping.Terminals for 4 mm2 power cables inside the enclosure allows connection of up to 10+ units.
Communication
RS485 communication port for PC
Modbus RTU built-in as standard
Harmonic filter
Integrated coils in the DC link. Compliance with IEC 61000-3-2
RFI filter
Compliance with EN 55011 1A.
Automatic Motor Tuning
Perfect match between motor and drive. Measures the stator resistance (RS) without the motor shaft turning.
Accessories and Options
Fieldbus
