Product Description
Danfoss created the FC-051PK37S2E20H3XXCXXXSXXX, a prime example of the industrial automation capabilities in compact architecture. With a weight under 1.1 kg, this variable frequency drive (VFD) is designed to perfectly operate AC motors with a 0.37 kW (0.5 horsepower) power output. It is perfect for applications utilizing smaller motors, often encountered in various industrial settings because of its power rating. The drive's sturdy construction and capacity to withstand brief spikes in power demand are shown by its ability to sustain a 150% overload for up to 60 seconds. This is an essential attribute for real-world industrial settings where variations occur. This excess capacity is connected to the drive's self-cooling system, which helps with thermal management. This implies that the drive effectively distributes heat produced during operation, guaranteeing lifespan and peak performance without additional cooling systems, making installation more straightforward, and requiring less maintenance.
With a maximum working temperature of 50°C, the FC-051PK37S2E20H3XXCXXXSXXX is designed to function in a broad temperature range, from -10°C to 40°C. Its wide operating range guarantees performance in various industrial conditions, from climate-controlled industries to more demanding settings. Additionally, with a derating of 1% current every 100 meters above 1000 meters, the drive may be placed at elevations up to 3000 meters. Even in geographically difficult situations, dependable performance is guaranteed by this altitude correction. The small size of 70 x 150 x 148 mm makes it possible to integrate into applications with limited space, which is a prevalent need in contemporary automation systems.
Despite its extensive capabilities and small size, the FC-051PK37S2E20H3XXCXXXSXXX is protected by IP20. According to this certification, the drive is secured against solid items more significant than 12.5 mm, such as fingers or tools. However, it provides no defense against water intrusion and only limited protection against dust. This factor is essential when choosing the drive's installation environment since harsher environments with high levels of dust or moisture may need extra precautions. The electrical properties of the drive are intimately related to its operating parameters. The FC-051PK37S2E20H3XXCXXXSXXX effectively controls the electrical power supplied to the motor, guaranteeing accurate control and responsiveness, with a current rating of 2.2A. The drive can manage the demands of the linked motor while offering a safety buffer for temporary overloads thanks to its current rating, which is directly correlated with the drive's motor power and overload capacity.
