Product Description:
The FC-301P5K5T2131F8899 is an AC variable frequency drive manufactured by Danfoss as part of the VLT FC 301 Automation Drives series. It belongs to the VLT AutomationDrive FC product group and carries the internal series identifier 301. By converting fixed-frequency three-phase line power into a pulse-width-modulated waveform, the drive provides precise speed and torque regulation for induction motors used in conveyors, pumps, and other automated machinery. This modulation allows motor output to follow process demand, helping reduce energy consumption and mechanical wear compared with line-started operation.
The drive accepts three-phase input power ranging from 200–240 VAC, allowing direct connection to compatible low-voltage plant networks without a step-down transformer. Its continuous motor output is rated at 5.5 kW, while the thermal design supports a steady output current of 24.2 A under normal ambient conditions. The carrier frequency can be increased to 32 kHz, providing finer current control for installations where audible motor noise is a concern. One analog output and two digital outputs are available for transmitting a speed reference, fault status, or process variable to a PLC or local signaling device. The control system tolerates a maximum phase-to-phase line imbalance of 3.0%. Standard power electronics limit input inrush current to 22 A during startup.
The drive has a short-term overload capacity of 160% for one minute in each ten-minute period, providing additional torque during demanding acceleration or load changes. Its rated motor capacity corresponds to 7.5 HP. During intermittent operation, the DC bus accommodates an input current of 35.2 A and a motor current of 38.7 A. Maximum internal power loss is 239 W, which helps keep cabinet ventilation requirements manageable. The precharge circuitry permits no more than two power-ups per minute to protect internal components from repeated current surges. Supported motor cable lengths extend to 50 m with shielded cable and 75 m with unshielded cable without requiring output derating.
