Product Description:

The 178B1655 is a decentralized AC drive produced by Danfoss for the FCD 300 Micro Drives series. Installed directly on the machine frame, it regulates the speed of small induction motors used in conveyors, mixers, and auxiliary equipment throughout processing plants. Its distributed mounting arrangement reduces the need for long motor leads and additional cabinet space. This configuration supports on-machine automation tasks that require straightforward installation and strong protection against dust and water.

This model delivers 0.37 kW of motor output power, which corresponds to a continuous shaft capability of 0.50 HP. The input section accepts a three-phase 380 to 480 V supply, allowing connection to common industrial power systems without a transformer. Its IP66 enclosure seals the electronics against dust and powerful water jets, allowing the drive to be installed in areas that undergo washdown procedures. Danfoss includes an integrated 1A filter to attenuate radio-frequency noise conducted through the supply lines. Locating the drive near the motor also shortens the power connection between the drive output and the connected induction motor.

The control platform has no fieldbus communication, so parameter adjustments are performed locally through the removable display connector or hardwired input and output connections. Power and control wiring enter a wall-mount box with metric threads, which simplifies cable-gland selection while preserving the enclosure seal. The separate terminal chamber provides an organized connection point for incoming power, motor conductors, and control wiring. For corrosion resistance in typical factory conditions, the housing has a standard epoxy coating. The internal electronics use the standard hardware build intended for this model. The drive is intended for processing applications in which compact installation, local control, and washdown resistance are important. Its decentralized format is suitable for conveyors, mixers, and other small motor-driven equipment that operates away from a central control cabinet.
