Product Description:

The 131B5134 is an AC variable frequency drive produced by Danfoss for the VLT FC 301 Automation Drives series. As a compact inverter, it converts fixed-frequency mains power into a controlled output that regulates induction motor speed and torque. This regulation allows the connected motor to respond to changing process demands in automated material-handling systems, pumps, conveyors, and similar industrial equipment. The drive can operate within distributed control architectures where precise speed adjustment supports process stability, reduces unnecessary energy use, and limits mechanical stress on connected machinery.

The drive is rated at 0.75 kW, which corresponds to 1.0 HP of continuous mechanical output when it is paired with a suitable motor. It accepts an input voltage of 200 to 240 VAC, allowing connection to standard low-voltage power distribution equipment without a step-up transformer. Its IP20 enclosure protects users against accidental contact with hazardous internal parts when the drive is installed inside a suitable cabinet. Because the enclosure is not dust-tight or water-resistant, the installation area should remain clean, dry, and protected from direct exposure to contaminants. Radio-frequency interference is reduced by an integrated EMC filter, which helps limit conducted electrical noise on the supply network. Power and control wiring pass through standard cable entries that support orderly routing and suitable conductor bend radii while preserving the unit’s compact footprint.

Fieldbus communication is provided through a PROFIBUS DP V1 MCA 101 card installed in the A slot, enabling cyclic data exchange with compatible automation controllers without an external gateway. The Safe Stop input removes motor torque when activated, allowing the drive to participate in an appropriate machine safety circuit. The inverter uses three-phase power and does not include an additional mains-side harmonic module. Its uncoated control board requires installation away from high humidity, corrosive gases, and conductive airborne contaminants. The unit does not include a local control panel keypad, so parameters and operating commands must be accessed through a compatible remote programming interface or fieldbus connection. The series identifier is 301, placing the unit in the VLT AutomationDrive FC product group. Its compact format allows it to be integrated into protected control panels where cabinet space, communication access, and controlled motor operation are important.
