Product Description

Bosch Rexroth develops the state-of-the-art RD500 drive system for different kinds of induction & synchronous motors. This drive is renowned for its flexibility and rapid adaptability, owing to its modular construction and software architecture. The RD500 series comprises alternating current (AC) drive converters, DC supply inverters, rectifiers, and supply modules. A significant feature of RD500 devices is simple handling vis-à-vis parameter identification and automatic motor adaptation. The drive system can be set up using an operator panel's graphical display or a PC running the high-performance RDwin software suite for maximum users’ satisfaction.

The RD51.1-4N-018-L-CF-FW is an RD500 drive converter with U/f curve control. Its design category is 1, and nominal connecting voltage has a value of 380 – 480 Volts (+/- 10%). The rated power of this unit is 18.5 kW, and it utilizes a forced-air cooling method. Generally, drive converters can have an optional brake chopper, and in the case of this model, it is not equipped with one. As an additional function, the RD51.1-4N-018-L-CF-FW offers a connection for RZC01.1-XN chemistry modules. In addition, its auxiliary function includes an external 24 Volts standby power. The primary functions of this unit include the control and monitoring of electric motors.

Before commissioning, the RD51.1-4N-018-L-CF-FW must be rightly configured to ensure that the corresponding motor efficiently executes the specific functions. Also, its typical applications include hoist & conveyor technology, chemical & process technology, packing & foodstuff machine. The RD51.1-4N-018-L-CF-FW operates at varying pulse frequencies (4 kHz, 8 kHz, and 12 kHz). Its specifications also vary depending on the frequency selection. The approximate weight of this drive converter is 11.3 kg, and the protection class is IP20. This product can be shipped globally with a one year warranty period from Wake Industrial.
