Product Description:
The FC-301 automation drive that is developed by Danfoss is one of the well performing device. It is used for applications that relates to industrial automation. This drive is belonging to the VLT AutomationDrive FC 301 series.
This FC-301 automation drive requires the input supply in the range of 380 volts to 480 volts. This acknowledges its compatibility with the standard industrial 3 phase power supplies. The device loss minimal energy during operation as it has the efficiency of 98 percent. The power input cable connected to the drive has a maximum cross section of 35 mm². This much conductor size ensures the proper current handling with no chance of overheating. While the maximum cable cross section for safety switch is 16 mm² that is considered as the key safety feature of the device. The VLT AutomationDrive FC 301 ability to the continuous supply of output current is dependent on the model. It supplies 24 A of current to the motor having power of 11 KW. For a short period of time, that is for 60 seconds the drive can supply 38.4 amps current to an 11 KW motor model.
The FC-301 automation drive capacity to manage the motor of different output power depends on the models. The device has a displacement power factor of greater than 0.98. This indicates its efficiency in using electrical power with minimum reactive demand that helps minimizes load on the main grid. The drive is compatible with both the frequencies of 50, 60 hertz with a ±5% tolerance level. The maximum ambient temperature for the machine is 50 °C. This means it is recommended to work on industrial applications in environmental temperature of 50 °C.
