Product Description:

The Danfoss 131B2520 Drive delivers 1.5 kW output at 400 volts with a power rating of 2. horsepower. It consumes 3.7 amperes during operation which makes it effective for industrial automation applications needing reliable and efficient performance.

The 131B2520 drive has an up to date software with the latest features, improvements and bug fixes. It is not included with a built-in brake chopper which suggests that it relies on other methods to handle braking. The continuous current it can supply to the motor under normal operational conditions at the specified voltage range 380 to 440 V is 4.1 amperes. Its 3 phase system provides more consistent power delivery, reduces mechanical vibrations in motors and improves overall energy efficiency. It will generate an estimated 62 watts of power loss when it is operating at full load which must be managed to avoid overheating. It has an efficiency of 0.97 which means that 97 percent of the energy drawn by the drive is utilized to power the motor with only 3 percent being lost as heat. Its IP 20 ratings suggest that it is intended for use in clean and dry environments where exposure to dust and water is minimal.

The 131B2520 drive can supply up to 6.6 amperes for a short period, typically only a few seconds without damage. The RFI filter built into the drive helps to reduce electromagnetic noise and it meets the standards EN 55011 Class A1/B and EN/IEC 61800-3 which ensures it complies with EMC regulations. Its mains voltage is in between 380–500 V which allows it to be used in various industrial automation fields with different electrical standards.
