Product Description:

The 176F0472 is developed by Danfoss as a member of the VLT 5000 series, with a compact design and product code VLT5003PT5CN1STR3DLF00A00C0. It delivers a shaft output power of 1500 W and it operates with high efficiency measured as 0.96. The drive features a power loss of 92 W at maximum load and it uses a line fuse of 10 A.

The 176F0472 frequency converter is designed for three phase source supply of 380 - 500 V and its operating frequency range is specified as 48 - 62 hertz. It supports a rated input current of 4.1 A at 380 V and 3.4 A at 460 V. The unit’s output power reaches 3100 VA at 380 - 440 V and it provides 2900 kVA output at 441 - 500 V. It can handle short time overload with higher current values up to 6.5 A and 5.5 A, both for 1 minute at 380 - 440/441 - 500 V. The 176F0 converter is available in three enclosure options, the IP20 EB Book-style version, IP20 EB and IP54 EB version that weighs 7.5 kg, 8.5 kg and 12 kg, respectively to allow installation in different industrial environments. Its cable connections for main supply, motor brake and load sharing are of 10 AWG.

The 176F0472 frequency converter offers a torque control accuracy of 5% and 3 ms of system response time, along with 0.0003 Hz of out frequency resolution. It accepts external 24 VDC supply at terminal 35 and 36. This unit possess 2 relays that are programmable with dedicated terminals for inductive and resistive loads. It permits installation up to 1000 m of altitude and supports a maximum of 0.7 g vibration severity.

Frequently Asked Questions about 176F0472:

Q: How does the high-frequency resolution (0.0003 Hz) benefit motor control?

A: The ultra-fine resolution enables exceptionally precise speed adjustments, reducing speed ripple and vibration. This ensures smoother operation under variable loads in sensitive machinery.

Q: Why is the 5 % torque control accuracy significant for the 176F0472?

A: A tight 5 % accuracy allows consistent torque delivery during load changes, preventing stalling or jolting. This improves performance in applications such as tensioning systems or material handling.

Q: How do the dual programmable relays improve flexibility?

A: They allow customized logic for on/off control of external peripherals, like cooling fans or alarms. Users can tailor relay behavior for both inductive and resistive loads.

Q: What advantage does external 24 VDC supply terminals (35/36) offer on the 176F0472?

A: The dedicated 24 V terminals ensure stable logic power irrespective of main power fluctuations. This enhances drive reliability in automation panels with soft power cycling.

Q: How does altitude rating up to 1000 m benefit use of the 176F0472?

A: It ensures reliable cooling and performance without derating at moderate elevation levels. This expands installation options to elevated sites like inclined conveyors or mountain operations.
