Product Description:
The FC-301P18KT4134L2989 is a variable-frequency drive manufactured by Danfoss for the VLT FC 301 Automation Drives series. It converts fixed-frequency three-phase mains power into a pulse-width-modulated output that allows plant controllers to adjust induction motor speed, torque, and ramp profiles. By replacing mechanical throttling with electronic regulation, the unit supports energy savings and smoother motion in conveyors, pumps, and material-handling systems. A compact chassis with DIN-rail slots and field-configurable I/O simplifies installation inside standard control cabinets, while integrated communication capabilities support connections to common PLC networks used in industrial automation.
The inverter delivers 18.5 kW of continuous mechanical power, equivalent to 25 HP, when supplied by plant lines rated at 380–480 VAC. In the 380–440 V range, it supplies a continuous motor current of 37.5 A, and its efficiency is 0.98, so only a small fraction of the input energy becomes heat. The continuous input current is 34 A, and the output current in the 441–500 V range is also limited to 34 A to keep device temperatures within operating limits. These electrical ratings allow the drive to power standard IEC motors without requiring oversized feeders or protective devices, making it suitable for general-purpose machinery in manufacturing cells.
For acceleration peaks, the converter can supply 60 A to the motor while drawing 54.4 A from the supply bus. Apparent power drawn at 400 V reaches 26 kVA, which supports circuit breaker and transformer sizing. At maximum load, the power stage dissipates 444 W, providing a basis for panel ventilation and thermal management. Two programmable digital outputs operate at 40 mA and 32 kHz, supporting high-speed control signals for connected equipment. An analog feedback channel provides 12-bit resolution for speed or torque reference signals. The design limits power cycling to one power-up per minute to help preserve DC-link capacitor life during frequent start-stop operation.
