175Z0017

Product Description:

The 175Z0017 frequency converter, part of Danfoss’s VLT 5000 Frequency Converters family, plugs right into demanding process applications that need consistent control. It runs with a three-phase setup and is kept safe with an IP20 enclosure class, so there’s coverage against solid bits but open areas help with heat movement. This unit lands in the bookstyle enclosure, which slips into crowded control cabinets where every bit of space counts. There’s a local control panel (LCP) built in for onsite tweaks, so parameter changes or checks don’t need extra tools or guessing at readings.

Power for this model comes in at 200-240V AC, which fits straight into lower-voltage plant setups. Mounting and wiring fees get easier when the layout makes room for this mains voltage, especially with its standard hardware configuration and brake included as a package deal. The brake option makes stopping smoother for setups with lots of momentum. Net weight listed is 6.7 kilograms, and even at that size, the panel doesn’t have bulky corners or surfaces. Managed cooling and the slim **bookstyle** housing combine to avoid heat buildup, even when several converters line up close on a rack. The enclosure style stands up to vibration from factory floors without working the mounting points loose.

Applications for the 175Z0017 stick mostly with industrial automation, like pumps or basic conveyors—places calling for stable starts and reliable overload handling. The panel’s screen lets operators keep tabs on status or dial through quick adjustments. Danfoss built this one to focus on process reliability, and consistent use means fewer last-minute breakdowns or resets. With the IP20 protection, it doesn’t brave splashes, but typical inside-the-cabinet installs work best anyway. Across each shift, this converter runs steady, deals with power blips, and holds its settings so automated lines don’t skip a beat.
