Product Description:
The 175H7240 is an AC variable frequency drive produced by Danfoss for the VLT 3000 Variable Speed Drives series. The unit converts fixed-frequency three-phase mains power into a regulated output that allows controllers to vary induction motor speed on conveyors, pumps, and ventilation systems. By matching motor speed to process demand, the drive improves energy efficiency and reduces mechanical wear in industrial automation lines. The chassis format supports cabinet or wall installation and includes basic operator keys for local setup. This interface allows operating parameters to be entered without external programming tools.
The enclosure has a protection rating of IP54, so the electronics are shielded from dust ingress and water splashes in plant environments. The overall height is 530 mm, including the heat sink and terminal covers. Electrical sizing is based on a nominal motor power of 1.1 kW, which the drive can supply continuously while maintaining semiconductor temperatures within operating limits. Under rated conditions, the unit can deliver an output current of 2.8 A and sustain an apparent power output of 2.0 kVA. These values support the selection of suitable circuit protection and conductor sizes so the connected motor receives adequate voltage throughout its operating speed range.
During acceleration or sudden load changes, the inverter can reach a peak output current of 3.5 A without triggering a protective trip. Installation flexibility is supported by a maximum motor cable length of 300 m, allowing the controller to remain in a central cabinet while the motor is installed remotely on the machine frame. The mounting width is 258 mm, which helps conserve horizontal panel space. No side clearance is required, but a vertical clearance of 150 mm must be maintained both above and below the unit. This open space permits adequate airflow through the heat sink and helps keep the drive within its safe operating temperature range during continuous service.
