Technical Specifications Table

Product Overview

The FC-302P4K0T5E20H1XGXXXXSXXXXAXBXCXXXXDX is a rugged VFD designed for harsh environments. Its IP66 enclosure and forced-air cooling system enable operation in extreme conditions, such as offshore platforms, chemical plants, and food processing facilities. The model’s Advanced Motor Control (AMC) algorithm provides 250% starting torque at 0.3 Hz, making it ideal for high-inertia loads like centrifuges, extruders, and large fans.

Key Features

1. Advanced Motor Control (AMC):
   • Adaptive tuning compensates for motor aging and load variations.
   • Reduces harmonic distortion to <2% (THD) with integrated Ultra-Low Harmonic (ULH) technology.
2. AI-Driven Predictive Maintenance:
   • Machine Learning Algorithms: Predict motor bearing failures and insulation degradation.
   • Vibration Analysis: Monitors drive health in real-time via embedded sensors.
3. Modular Safety Architecture (MSA):
   • Safe Motion Functions: Safe Torque Off (STO), Safe Stop 1 (SS1), and Safe Speed Monitor (SSM).
   • Fieldbus Safety: PROFIsafe and CIP Safety over EtherCAT.
4. IIoT Integration:
   • OPC UA over TSN: Enables deterministic communication in real-time networks.
   • 5G Ready: Facilitates wireless OTA updates and remote monitoring.
