Product Description:

The 178B4145 is part of the VLT 5000 Frequency Converters series manufactured by Danfoss. The frequency inverter refers to the product VFD5016PT5C20SBR3D0F00A00C0. It is designed for demanding industrial applications, offering high performance in a compact form. This model provides reliable and efficient operation for various motor control needs.

The 178B4145 Frequency Converters comes with a 15 kW (20 HP) typical shaft output and is compatible with a 380-500 V three-phase supply (T5). It features both normal and high overload torque options. The usual overload torque provides 32 A of output current at 380-440 V and 27.9 A at 441-500 V. The strong overload torque delivers 24 A at 380-440 volts and 21.7 A at 441-500 volts. These properties provide flexibility for a variety of motor requirements while retaining great torque performance across a wide range of input voltages. With an efficiency of 0.96 at maximum load, this model saves energy while providing dependable performance. The motor also supports a variety of fieldbus protocols, such as Profibus DP, Modbus and DeviceNet, making it suitable for integration into modern industrial systems. The product supports cable cross-sections up to 16/6 mm² in both IP20 and IP54 enclosures.

The 178B4145 Converter is extremely durable, having protection ratings of IP20 and IP54 depending on configuration. It can work in temperatures ranging from -10 to +40°C. The device weighs 23 kg for IP20 and 41 kg for IP54 that makes it lightweight thus appropriate for a variety of industrial applications. Power loss at maximum load is 419 W for high overload torque and 559 W for normal overload torque. The motor also includes fuses that ensures safe operation under different load conditions.
