Product Description:
The 176F0556 frequency converter belongs to the VLT 5000 Frequency Converters series produced by Danfoss. It is intended for closed-loop speed control in industrial automation. Positioned between the plant’s mains and an AC motor, the unit adjusts output frequency so pumps, fans, or conveyors can follow process requirements while maintaining constant torque and reducing inrush stress. Closed-loop operation helps correct speed deviations caused by changing load conditions, which supports steadier process flow during continuous production.
The enclosure is Compact NEMA 1, providing basic protection for indoor cabinet mounting without external conduit fittings. Control is performed by a dedicated process control card, and a display is supplied for local parameter entry and status viewing. These features allow operating data to be viewed directly at the unit during setup and routine use. The converter accepts a 380-500 V input and, with a short-term overload allowance of 110%, delivers up to 30 kW to the motor. Board construction uses non-coated boards, so clean, dry installation areas are recommended. The hardware is standard, no application option is built in, and the unit has an overall height of 700 mm. No fieldbus option is included, so communication remains focused on stand-alone process regulation.
A second rating of 22 kW at 160% torque supports shorter acceleration periods in torque-heavy duty cycles. This helps in applications where the motor must start under load or respond quickly to changing process demands. The unit has a width of 242 mm and a depth of 260 mm, which helps when arranging contactors or filters in the same cabinet. A three-phase supply is required because the output stage is built for 3-phase operation. No RFI filter performance is specified, so external suppression may be needed when sensitive instrumentation shares the same panel.
