Product Description:
The FCD 300 series drive 178B1396 from Danfoss refers to the product code FCD305PT4P66EXR1DCF10T52C0. It is engineered for motor control in industrial applications with a supported input voltage range of 380 VAC to 480 VAC at 50/60Hz frequency. The drive utilizes a maximum input current of 1.6 A and it is designed with an output rating of 1.2 kVA, along with 1.8 A of current.
The 178B1396 drive offers both open-loop speed regulation and closed-loop control when coupled with an external feedback device. Its motor voltage is set at 400 V and its nominal frequency can be configured from 24 Hz to 1000 Hz. The drive’s adjustable parameters allow it to control motors with a rated motor current from 0.01 A to maximum. It includes customizable ramp-up and ramp-down times of 0.02 seconds to 3600 seconds for smooth motor acceleration and deceleration. This 178B13 drive supports DC braking with a braking time adjustment from 0 to 60 seconds and the ability to set a DC brake voltage between 0 - 100% of the maximum rated voltage. Its additional features include load compensation, which can be set between 0% to 300% and slip compensation, which ranges from -500% to +500%. Start frequency can be configured from 0.0 to 10.0 Hz and the initial voltage is adjustable from 0.0 V to 200 V. The unit’s minimum current value for mechanical brake release can be set from 0% to 100% of the rated motor current.
The 178B1396 drive features an IP66 rated enclosure and it incorporates thermal motor protection, which can be set to ETR trip values for various thresholds that includes ETR warning as well as ETR trip levels. It includes an RS485 port that supports PROFIBUS for seamless integration into industrial automation systems and the drive also provides automatic motor tuning (AMT) to optimize motor performance.
