Product Description:

The FC-202P30KT4131Z1796 is a variable-frequency drive manufactured by Danfoss for the VLT FC 202 AQUA Drives series. It is used in pump and fan stations where automatic speed control reduces water hammer, lowers energy consumption, and maintains set points received from plant PLCs or SCADA systems. The drive operates with three-phase induction motors, providing a compact method for regulating flow or pressure without mechanical throttling devices. Its variable-speed operation allows motor output to follow changing process demand rather than remain fixed at full speed. This control method is suitable for water distribution, wastewater treatment, irrigation, booster, and ventilation systems.

The mains terminals accept 380–480 VAC three-phase power, and the input section draws 47 A continuously at 460 V. Upstream protection requires pre-fuses rated no higher than 80 A. The inverter can supply 52 A of continuous motor current and deliver 30 kW of mechanical output. Apparent power reaches 41.4 kVA under rated operating conditions. Overall efficiency is 0.98, so only a small portion of the absorbed energy is converted into heat. The output stage can switch at frequencies up to 32 kHz, helping reduce torque ripple and audible motor noise in pump rooms. These electrical values support proper drive sizing, conductor selection, protective-device coordination, and enclosure cooling for operation at full capacity.

Full performance is maintained at elevations up to 1,000 m, after which linear derating applies until the maximum elevation of 3,000 m is reached. The drive operates from 0 °C to a maximum ambient temperature of 50 °C before additional cooling or current reduction becomes necessary. Shielded motor leads may extend up to 150 m, accommodating remotely located well, booster, or aeration pumps. Unshielded motor leads may extend to 300 m when the installation permits that cable type. Internal power losses reach 739 W at rated load, so the enclosure must provide enough airflow to prevent excessive semiconductor temperatures. Adequate clearance around the cooling path also helps the drive dissipate heat during continuous operation.
