Product Description:

The VACON0020-3L-0004-4 is a low-voltage AC drive built by Danfoss and positioned within the VACON 20 Low Voltage Drives series. As a compact V/Hz or sensorless vector inverter, it modulates three-phase supply power to regulate induction motor speed in conveyors, pumps, and general factory automation. The MI2 frame keeps wiring distances short and allows the unit to fit into narrow control enclosures, while the drive provides precise speed and torque control without mechanical throttling.

The drive supplies up to 1.1 kW of shaft power to a connected motor when ambient temperature and cooling conditions remain within rated limits. Continuous motor current is limited to 3.3 A, while the input draws a nominal 4 A from the three-phase power supply. During a 60-second overload event, the drive can deliver 5 A before its protective limits intervene. Dynamic braking energy is dissipated through the integrated chopper and an external resistor with a minimum resistance of 118 Ω. Recommended motor and power supply leads use a 3 × 1.5 + 1.5 mm² conductor arrangement to limit voltage drop. Built-in current monitoring works with the upstream fuse to provide coordinated fault protection.

Control wiring can be powered directly from the drive’s auxiliary supply, which provides 24 VDC at up to 50 mA. This output can power compatible sensors or relay coils without requiring a separate power supply. To protect the converter, the upstream fuse should be rated at 10 A and coordinated with the MI2 frame’s internal bus capacitors. The enclosure measures 195 mm high, 90 mm wide, and 102 mm deep, and it weighs 0.7 kg, allowing DIN-rail mounting with minimal strain on cabinet panels. Cable clamps accept the recommended power supply and motor leads to help maintain electromagnetic compatibility.
