Product Description:

The VLT Decentral FCD 300 product group, which includes the Danfoss 178B5656, offers small, strong, and effective motor drives for demanding industrial uses.

The exact performance of this decentralized frequency converter, which is close to the motor and has a rating for power of 2.2 kW, or 3.0 horsepower, reduces the need for conventional control cabinet space. The drive offers an input voltage range of 380-480 V AC with a tolerance of +/- 10 percent, making it flexible enough to work with different supply voltages. It works on both 50 Hz & 60 Hz, and the product is flexible and compatible with the varied market applications and international electrical requirements. This model is fitted within a sturdy IP66 device, which is fully dustproof and highly water-resistant, suitable to use in hectic and outdoor applications. It also complies with EMC requirements according to EN 55011 Class A1, where it is electromagnetically compatible in industrial networks. The drive comes in the case size B, which has a robust, compact design made to meet the requirements of industrial uses. With a size of 367 x 258 x 154 mm, it is well spaced, and 9 kg of overall weight enables easy handling and stable fixing.

The unit features a C0 coating (no additional coating) that suits normal environments without harsh contaminants. The drive has excellent capability with a maximum output current of 5.2 A, guaranteeing consistent performance with a load. At 400 V, output power to 3.6 kVA, providing efficiency, stability, and reliable operation across a wide variety of industrial applications and challenging operating environments. It also has good overload capability, being capable of 160% of rated torque in 60-second bursts and, therefore, is suitable in situations where high demand, such as hard start-ups or peak loads, are required. In terms of communication and integration, Profibus DP options are offered that support 3 Mbit and 12 Mbit configurations to facilitate communication with industrial automation systems.
