Product Description:

The 131B2563 is a Danfoss AC variable-frequency drive in the VLT FC 302 Automation Drives series. It modulates three-phase mains power to regulate induction motor speed in conveyors, pumps, and general process equipment used in industrial automation cells. By combining scalable power electronics with precise motor control, the unit provides a compact controller for adjusting torque and flow without mechanical throttling. Its variable-frequency output allows the connected motor to operate according to process demand rather than continuously running at full speed.

This model delivers a continuous output of 4.0 kW, equivalent to 5.0 HP, allowing appropriate control of small and midsize motors. The input section accepts 380 to 500 VAC with three-phase power, so it connects directly to typical plant distribution networks. The enclosure has an IP20 chassis rating, making installation in a closed panel necessary in dusty areas. The printed circuit boards are not coated, so humidity inside the cabinet must remain controlled. Standard cabinet mounting supports A, B, and C frames, providing straightforward integration with existing enclosure layouts, while standard cable entries simplify gland plate selection. Because the drive does not include a brake chopper, deceleration energy must be handled by the load or suitable external braking equipment.

Fieldbus connectivity is provided by the A-slot PROFIBUS DP V1 MCA 101 card, which supports communication with compatible industrial control networks. A built-in numerical local control panel provides direct access to operating parameters without requiring a computer. Its standard language pack supports clear menu navigation during setup and routine operation. Conducted emissions are limited by the integrated RFI Class A1/B (C1) filter, reducing the need for additional external filtering in many installations. The internal series identifier is 302, and the drive uses the mechanical and electrical format associated with the VLT AutomationDrive FC product group.
