Product Description:

The 178B2007 variable frequency drive is manufactured by Danfoss and belongs to the VLT 6000 HVAC Drives series. Engineered for building-services automation, this book-style inverter conditions three-phase power and supplies a variable-frequency output to squirrel-cage motors used in air handlers, pumps, and exhaust fans. By permitting continuous speed control rather than step switching, the drive can match airflow or water flow to actual demand, reducing energy consumption and mechanical stress on connected equipment.

The drive accepts a utility supply of 380–460 VAC, covering the common 400 V class found in mechanical rooms and rooftop units. Within that input range, it can deliver up to 3.0 kW / 4.0 HP to the motor terminals, making it suitable for midsize ventilation zones and pumping systems. Installation in crowded cabinets is simplified by the narrow book-style IP20 enclosure, which provides basic protection against accidental contact while allowing cooling airflow through the housing. Conducted and radiated emissions are limited by the integrated Class A1 and B filter, reducing the need for separate external filtering components in compatible installations. Danfoss offers a plug-on Local Control Panel for direct parameter access, but this version is supplied without an LCP, so settings must be accessed through a compatible remote keypad or PC-based tool.

Parameter templates are intended for HVAC operation, including variable-air-volume fans, chilled-water pumps, and other loads that benefit from demand-based speed regulation. The electronics have no protective coating, making the drive appropriate for clean indoor locations that are free from corrosive gases, conductive dust, and excessive moisture. The drive uses a standard unit configuration, with the baseline power and control arrangement provided for this model. Its networking slots remain empty because the unit is delivered with no fieldbus options, favoring hardwired analog inputs, digital signals, and relay commands from a building automation system.
