Technical Specifications Table

Product Overview

The FC-302P2K2T2E20H1BXXXXXSXXXXAXBXCXXXXDX is a versatile VFD designed for ease of use and energy efficiency. Its hybrid cooling system and IP21 rating make it suitable for dusty industrial environments and light commercial spaces. The model’s dual-voltage capability (200–240 V / 380–480 V) adds flexibility for global installations, while its Energy Saver function reduces energy consumption by up to 30% in variable torque loads.

Key Features

1. Energy Efficiency:
   • Automatic Energy Optimizer: Adjusts motor voltage and frequency to match load demands.
   • Sleep/Wake Mode: Deactivates the drive during idle periods to minimize standby losses.
   • Power Factor Correction (PFC): Reduces harmonic distortion to <5% (THD).
2. Simplified Control:
   • Plug-and-Play Macros: Preconfigured settings for pumps, fans, and conveyors.
   • Built-in PID Controller: Eliminates the need for external regulators.
   • Real-Time Clock (RTC): Enables scheduled operations (e.g., peak-load shaving).
3. Connectivity:
   • BACnet MS/TP: Integrates with building management systems (BMS).
   • Modbus RTU: Standard for HVAC and industrial automation.
4. Compliance:
   • Energy Star Certification: Meets stringent energy efficiency guidelines.
   • Low Harmonic Design: Complies with IEEE 519 without external filters.

Applications

The FC 302 Series (Part No: 131B0008) excels in cost-sensitive environments:

1. HVAC Systems:
   • Variable air volume (VAV) control in fans and blowers.
   • Precision temperature regulation for air handling units (AHUs).
2. Water Management:
   • Pump control for constant pressure systems in residential and commercial buildings.
   • Irrigation systems requiring flow optimization.
3. Material Handling:
   • Conveyor belts and small mixers in light industrial settings.
4. Food & Beverage:
   • Refrigeration unit motor control in retail stores and restaurants.

Installation & Operation

Installation
