Product Description:

The FECG02.1-15K0-3P400-A-BN-MODB-01V01-S001 frequency converter is manufactured by Bosch Rexroth Indramat within the FEC Frequency Converters series. It is intended for general automation and converts utility power into a variable voltage-frequency output that matches motor demand over a broad operating range. Its second-generation platform with Design 1 construction includes an internal brake chopper, which supports controlled handling of dynamic energy during deceleration. By modulating both voltage and frequency, the converter helps reduce inrush stress, supports controlled acceleration, and maintains stable motor operation in conveyors, pumps, and material-handling equipment. This operating method is useful where process demand changes during normal use and the motor must respond without abrupt speed changes.

The drive accepts a three-phase AC 380 to 480 V mains supply and delivers a continuous motor current of 33 A, which corresponds to a nominal output of 15 kW. Scalar V/F regulation is generated with SVPWM, allowing stable torque delivery across a broad speed range for common industrial loads. High overload capacity includes 200% for 1 second for brief shock loads and 150% for 60 seconds for heavier running demand. The start sequence can provide 150% at 5 Hz to help move loads that have high breakaway resistance. Protection is provided by an IP20 enclosure, and the drive synchronizes with 50/60 Hz input on a three-phase supply.

Fine control is supported by a digital frequency step of 0.01 Hz and an analog reference tolerance of 0.05%, both managed by the built-in PID controller. The PID function can automatically trim output frequency in response to process feedback, which helps maintain steady operating conditions. Parameter access is handled through the Modbus interface, and the converter does not use a local potentiometer for setpoint entry. The size 3 construction uses a front panel that is 275 mm wide, which helps keep terminals accessible inside standard control enclosures. This layout also supports orderly cable routing when the unit is mounted with other drive components in the same cabinet.
