Product Description:

The FC-301P15KT2131B8967 is an AC variable frequency drive manufactured by Danfoss for the VLT FC 301 Automation Drives series. It modulates the electrical output supplied to three-phase motors according to the required operating conditions. This control allows production lines, pumps, and fans to match process demand while reducing mechanical wear and unnecessary energy use. Closed-loop operation also lets the drive regulate motor speed in response to feedback from the connected system.

The drive is rated for a mechanical output of 15 kW and accepts a three-phase mains voltage range of 200–240 VAC. When carrying its nominal load, the output stage delivers 59.4 A. The power conversion path operates with an efficiency of 0.96, so most of the absorbed electrical power is transferred to the motor rather than lost as heat. One 12-bit analog output and two digital or pulse outputs allow a controller to read operating variables or forward a tachometer signal to auxiliary equipment. The analog channel supports fine scaling of set points, while the digital outputs can switch up to 40 mA for counter or status functions. Continuous input demand is 54 A, and the motor circuit supports shielded cable runs of up to 50 m while complying with drive-to-motor electromagnetic compatibility guidance.

During short-term acceleration or heavy loading, the input current can rise to 81 A, and the inverter can supply the motor with up to 89.1 A before protective functions intervene. Heat generated during operation contributes to a total power loss of 624 W, which must be removed through adequate cabinet ventilation. On a 208 V network, the apparent power draw is 21.4 kVA, while operation at 230 V increases the apparent power draw to 23.7 kVA. The unit supports unshielded motor cable runs of up to 75 m, providing additional placement flexibility when the drive cabinet cannot be located near the motor. Its output channels can transmit status, pulse, or analog information to external control equipment without requiring a separate signal-conversion module.
