Product Description:

The 175H1016 is an AC variable frequency drive manufactured by Danfoss within the VLT 3000 Variable Speed Drives series. The unit converts fixed-frequency three-phase power into a modulated output for controlling induction motors. This control allows motors to be accelerated, decelerated, or held at precise speeds in automated machinery, conveyors, and pump stations.

In normal-duty mode, the drive delivers a continuous motor output of 3 HP, making it suitable for small to midrange motors used in material-handling lines. It accepts line supplies at 50/60 Hz, and its conversion stage reaches an efficiency of 96% under full load, limiting heat generation inside control panels. The output stage can be programmed up to 500 Hz, allowing high synchronous speeds when paired with suitably rated motors. A sealed housing with an IP54 rating blocks dust ingress and water splashes, so the controller can be mounted on factory floors without an additional enclosure. The power electronics permit unlimited switching at the output terminals, allowing frequent start-stop cycles without shortening component life.

The drive operates at temperatures from -10 °C to +40 °C, permitting installation in unconditioned production areas. Acceleration profiles are flexible because ramp times can be set between 0.1 second and 3600 s, enabling gentle starts for pumps or rapid speed changes for indexing equipment. Input contactors may engage up to 5 times per minute without exceeding the switching limit. The included RFI filter reduces conducted emissions to support compliance with industrial electromagnetic compatibility requirements. For inventory or spare units, the drive may be stored at temperatures up to +65 °C without deterioration. Stable speed regulation supports equipment that experiences changing loads during routine operation, while adjustable ramping helps limit sudden mechanical stress on connected motors and machinery.
