Product Description

The RD51.1-5B-018-D-DF-FW is a Bosch Rexroth VFC drive control unit powered by an RD42 regenerative power supply module. Some of the vast advantages of this unit are its easy & quick start, auto-adaptation by parameter identification, guided start-up, etc. Typical applications of the RD51.1-5B-018-D-DF-FW include chemical & process technology, machine tools, hoist- and conveyor technology, handling & assembly systems, packing machines, etc. As with all RD500 drive control units, this model must be parameterized before commissioning to ensure that the motor is controlled appropriately to perform specific functions.

The operating efficiency of the RD51.1-5B-018-D-DF-FW at a nominal point is within 97 to 98 % (depending on output range). It features a 3-phase power supply rated at AC 380 V to 500 V (± 10 %), and its mains frequency is 50 – 60 Hertz. Also, this device is compatible with IT networks. In general, the overload ability of RD500 systems is 130 % for 1 minute; 170 % for 1 sec; 200 % for 0.5 sec. To preserve the integrity of this device, it must be stored in a clean and dry environment. Also, its storage temperature must be maintained at –25 °C and 70 °C. The temperature variations on the RD51.1-5B-018-D-DF-FW must not exceed 20 K/hour for optimum operations.

The RD51.1-5B-018-D-DF-FW is equipped with a NAMUR terminal strip as an additional feature. A plug-through cooler aids its cooling mechanism, and it is equipped with a built-in brake chopper. In addition, its rated power has a value of 18.5 kW. The RD51.1-5B-018-D-DF-FW can be operated at a variety of pulse frequencies. Its class size is B, and the protection class is IP 20. This product can be shipped globally with a one year warranty period from Wake Industrial.
