Product Description:

178B2014 is a Danfoss AFD or adjustable frequency drive. Its product line is VLT 6000 and the specified model is VLT 6042. Danfoss fixes an ID sticker to each unit. This sticker lists the type code (order code), serial number, and a few important technical specifications. Operators and staff can refer to the sticker and easily identify each drive unit. As per the sticker on this unit, it is designed for use with AC power systems that provides voltages ranging from 380 to 460 Volts. The line frequency can be 50 to 60 Hertz. Chassis of the converter is IP20 rated. This protection rating indicates the protection provided against ingress or liquids or solids present in the operation environment. Operators can refer to this rating and quickly decide whether the converter can be mounted with or without an industrial cabinet.

A suitable enclosure is required for outdoor use of IP20 rated systems. Indoor use is allowed but use of a cabinet is recommended. The nominal power output of the 178B2014 unit is 52.5 kVA. Nominal output is available when the ambient temperature remains below 40 ⁰C (104 ⁰F). The 24-hour average temperature recommended by the manufacturer is 35 ⁰C. The minimum temperature for nominal output is 0 ⁰C and the minimum temperature for derated output is -10 ⁰C. The converter monitors temperature of the heat sink, and is designed to switch off if this temperature reaches 90 ⁰C. The overtemperature alarm can only be reset after the heat sink temperature falls below 60 ⁰C. When the converter is connected to 380 Volts input, it draws 72 Amps. When the converter is connected to 460 Volts input, it draws 65 Amps.
