Product Description:

The FECG01.2-30K0-3P400-A-BN-MODB-01V01 is a power-electronic converter released by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the FEC Frequency Converters series. As a variable AC drive, it regulates motor speed and torque in general automation lines that run conveyors, pumps, or process equipment. This first-generation unit follows the Design 2 layout and occupies mechanical size 4, giving it a large panel footprint for cabinet mounting. By omitting an internal potentiometer, all adjustments are expected to be carried out through the digital interface.

The power section delivers 30 kW of continuous output while drawing from a 3-phase mains circuit. Electrical compatibility spans 3 AC 380 to 480 V, which places the unit in the 400 VAC voltage class used in the series. Terminals are protected to the IP20 ingress rating, so the unit must be installed inside a closed control cabinet. An external brake chopper dissipates regenerated energy during rapid deceleration and prevents overvoltage on the DC bus. Because the unit uses a standard industrial motor voltage class, it is compatible with many European and North American windings and reduces the need for autotransformers. The power level suits mid-range pumps and conveyors that demand consistent torque across the full speed band.

A key operating feature of this model is its high overload capability: it can supply 200 % for 1 second and then sustain 150 % for 60 seconds without tripping. The communication slot carries ModBus for parameter access, monitoring, and field integration. Cabinet planning is eased because the housing measures 290 mm wide. These short bursts help machinery absorb inertia when large masses start or stop without requiring a larger converter for brief load peaks. The ModBus mapping gives access to process data and diagnostic registers through common PLC platforms, so no proprietary gateway is needed. The width figure also helps determine enclosure spacing next to contactors and fuses.
