Product Description:
The 178B1485 is a decentralized variable-frequency drive manufactured by Danfoss and supplied within the FCD 300 Micro Drives series. Mounted directly on or near the motor, it regulates induction-motor speed on processing lines where cabinet space is limited and washdown cleaning is routine. By converting fixed mains power into a modulated output, the unit allows automation systems to adjust motor torque and speed without mechanical throttling. This arrangement simplifies field installations in food, beverage, and other processing applications while reducing the amount of drive equipment required inside a central control cabinet.
An enclosure rating of IP66 seals the housing against dust ingress and powerful water jets, so the drive can be installed in open plant areas without an auxiliary enclosure. Its continuous electrical capacity is 0.75 kW, making it suitable for small pumps, fans, or conveyor motors found on auxiliary skids. The input section accepts a three-phase supply of 380 to 480 V, eliminating the need for step-up transformers on common industrial mains. To suppress conducted emissions, the power stage includes an integral 1A filter that supports compliance with typical electromagnetic compatibility requirements. Wiring is completed through fixed cable glands because the model does not have a terminal box, allowing the connections to enter the sealed housing directly.
The drive is extended with a brake, allowing regenerated energy from rapid motor deceleration or high-inertia load changes to be managed by the braking system. Communication with higher-level controllers is available through Profibus DP V0/V1 at 12 Mbaud, allowing parameter access and real-time setpoint updates over the plant network. A configuration without a display keeps the enclosure compact and reduces potential points of water ingress. Local operating information must therefore be accessed through the connected control system or fieldbus interface. The standard coating on the aluminum chassis provides basic corrosion resistance for indoor processing areas. The sealed enclosure and remote communication interface support installation near driven equipment where routine cleaning and exposure to airborne contaminants are expected.
