A4

IP55 and IP66 drives from Danfoss VLT Drives have been slimmed down

27 January 2011
Danfoss VLT Drives offers a compact A4 enclosure in protection class IP55/66 in the FC series down to 0.25 kW.

The A4 frame size presents a more compact solution for customers that until now have used the A5 frame in the same power range.
The A4 enclosure weighs 9.4 kg where the A5 weighs 14 kg.

Motivational factors:

  • Smaller mechanical size (32%)
  • Lighter weight (9.4 kg)
  • Easier mounting and installation for customers (outside fastening holes)
  • Easy line connection (45° connector)
  • No external fan in 0.37 – 1.1 kW /380-500V and 0.25 – 0.55 kW / 200 - 240V
  • Ambient temperature: 50°C continuously (only drive on the market!)
  • Optional mains switch
  • Threaded cable entry holes for ‘metric areas’
  • Smooth cable entry holes for conduit installations
  • Easy fieldbus connection
  • Compatible with Ethernet based fieldbus options
  • Same internal hardware and software as for A5
  • All options designed for placing in A and/or B slot(s)
  • UL approved

1.1 – 2.2 kW / 200 – 240 V and 1.1 – 4.0 kW / 380 – 480 V
