Features

Highlights

  •    –   High resolution multi-language display with Setup Wizards and Data-Logging.
  •    –   Bluetooth and DriveWizardMobile for convenient and easy interaction.
  •    –   Programming without main power through embedded USB port.
  •    –   DriveWizard Desktop for comprehensive configuration and monitoring.
  •    –   DriveWorks EZ (embedded function blocks) provides extra flexibility, otherwise accomplished in a separate controller.
  •    –   Closed or open loop vector control for outstanding regulation and torque production.
  •    –   Fast acting motor control functions provide near tripless operation.
  •    –   Popular network connections provide robust control and monitoring with system controllers.
  •    –   Embedded Auxiliary Control Power Input (24V) maximizes production time and efficiency by maintaining network communication while main power is removed.
  •    –   Embedded Safe Torque Off minimizes downtime for applications requiring occasional intervention (SIL CL3, PLe, Category 3).
  •    –   Integrated DC Reactor (40HP and larger) improves power quality and compatibility.
  •    –   Integrated 12 Pulse version provides a cost effective solution for low harmonics.
  •    –   Integrated Brake Transistor (up to 125HP ND) for cost effective heavy braking.
  •    –   Standard conformal coating helps resist contamination.
  •    –   Made with RoHS compliant materials for environmental compliance.
  •    –   Flange version provides IP55/UL Type12 backside integrity when mounting with heatsink external.
