Product Description:

Danfoss manufactured the FC-301PK55T4134L2979. This drive's 40A continuous current rating is one of its primary features. This is the highest electrical current that the drive can reliably manage without experiencing overheating or performance issues. The flow of electric charge is known as electric current, and it is measured in amperes (A). The drive also has a 73A maximum current capacity. The drive can handle brief spikes in power consumption, including those that occur during motor starting or times of heavy workload, thanks to its greater current limit. The voltage range in which the FC-301PK55T4134L2979 works is 24V DC to 48V DC. The drive may be incorporated into a range of industrial settings with various power supply configurations thanks to its voltage input versatility. The drive has an incremental encoder with Hall sensors for feedback mechanisms. An incremental encoder is a tool that provides information about the location, speed, and direction of a rotating shaft by converting rotational motion into a sequence of digital pulses.

The cooling method used by the FC-301PK55T4134L2979 is natural convection. This cooling technique dissipates heat produced during operation by relying on the air's natural flow. The heat is transferred away from the drive by the surrounding air, which heats, gets less dense, and rises as the drive's components heat up. This natural air movement efficiently cools the drive without the need for fans or other active cooling elements. The FC-301PK55T4134L2979 weighs 3.5 kg, which is relatively light for an industrial drive with its characteristics. This facilitates handling and installation in a variety of industrial environments. Its small size and lightweight construction enhance the drive's overall effectiveness and usefulness. Both RS232 and RS485 ports are included on the drive. These serial communication interfaces are often used in industrial automation to link equipment such as drives, human-machine interfaces (HMIs), and programmable logic controllers (PLCs).

The maximum mechanical speed of the FC-301PK55T4134L2979 is 7500 revolutions per minute. This is the maximum rotational speed that a linked motor that the drive can safely and successfully control. Because of its high speed, the drive may be used in a variety of applications that call for quick and accurate motor control. The drive is rated for IP20 protection. The degree of protection offered against the incursion of solid objects (including body parts like hands and fingers), dust, water, and accidental contact in electrical enclosures is categorized by the IP (Ingress Protection) rating system. The drive is protected against solid objects larger than 12.5 millimeters in diameter, such as fingers, according to its IP20 grade; however, it is not protected against liquids.
