Product Description:

The FC-301P5K5T4134L2918 is an AC variable-frequency drive produced by Danfoss for the VLT FC 301 Automation Drives series. Classified within the VLT AutomationDrive FC product group, it converts a fixed three-phase mains supply into a pulse-width-modulated output that lets machine controllers regulate induction motor speed and torque instead of relying on mechanical throttling. In production lines, conveyors, and pump stations, the drive supplies regulated motor power while limiting inrush current during acceleration.

At rated load, the inverter delivers 5.5 kW of motor output power, providing adequate capacity for constant-torque duties. It accepts a 380–480 VAC three-phase supply, and the continuous input current is 11.7 A when connected to a 380–440 V network. The output bridge can supply 13 A continuously. Efficiency remains at 0.97, so only a small fraction of the incoming energy is released as heat. A true power factor of at least 0.9 and a displacement factor above 0.98 minimize reactive demand from the mains. Flux regulation is maintained up to 300 Hz, while the fundamental output frequency can be extended to 590 Hz. The inverter can also provide an output voltage equal to 100% of the incoming line voltage, which helps preserve motor torque at elevated speeds.

Transient demands are supported by an overload capacity of 160% for 1 minute every 10 minutes, allowing the drive to start loads that require additional torque without increasing the motor size. Upstream components can be selected for an apparent power draw of 9.0 kVA at 400 V, while the permitted supply phase imbalance is limited to 3.0%. Full-load power loss is 187 W, which must be considered when determining cabinet airflow and heat dissipation. The drive permits two power-up cycles per minute to reduce stress on the internal capacitors. Shielded motor cables may be up to 50 m long, while unshielded cables may extend to 75 m where electromagnetic compatibility requirements permit their use. These cable limits provide separate routing options for installations with different shielding and distance requirements.
