Product Description:

The 131B0953 is an AC variable-frequency drive manufactured by Danfoss for the VLT FC 301 Automation Drives series. It belongs to the broader VLT AutomationDrive FC product group and carries the 301 series identifier used across related models. Within an industrial automation cell, the drive regulates the frequency and voltage supplied to an induction motor, allowing motor speed to follow changing process demands. This electronic control can support conveyors, pumps, fans, and other machinery that requires adjustable speed or torque. The drive also provides a compact control point between the incoming line supply and the connected motor.

The drive accepts an input supply of 380 to 480 VAC from a three-phase power network. It provides a continuous output rating of 1.5 kW, which corresponds to 2.0 HP. Its IP20 chassis protection guards against accidental contact with internal electrical parts while leaving the unit suitable for installation inside a closed control cabinet. The internal DC link does not include a brake chopper, so applications that generate substantial braking energy require an external method of managing that energy. The printed circuit boards are uncoated, allowing direct heat transfer from their components to the surrounding airflow. The drive does not include A, B, C, or D option modules, and it also omits C0 and C1 extensions.

The enclosure uses standard cable entries for routing power, motor, and control wiring into the drive. Its normal cabinet mounting for A, B, and C frames uses hole patterns suited to common panel layouts. A graphical local control panel is included for parameter access, status monitoring, trending, and manual operation at the enclosure. The drive is supplied with no additional EMC filter, so external radio-frequency interference mitigation may be necessary when an installation must meet Class C1 emission limits. Mains and adaptation options are not installed, leaving the base drive configuration available for general-purpose motor control. Emergency stopping and load retention must be coordinated with the surrounding control system because the drive has no internal dynamic-braking function.
