Product Description:

The 131U3880 is a variable frequency drive produced by Danfoss for the VLT FC 302 Automation Drives series. Classified in the VLT AutomationDrive FC product group, the unit carries the internal series identifier 302. It modulates the speed and torque of industrial AC motors, enabling precise process control and reduced energy use in automation lines, pump rooms, and material-handling systems. Its intended duties include speed regulation, torque control, and general motor management across mixed-load applications. The chassis footprint aligns with cabinet installations where component density and service access are key considerations.

The drive has a continuous rating of 4.0 kW and a motor output of 5.0 HP. The drive accepts 380–500 VAC on three-phase power. Excess regenerative energy is dissipated through an internal brake chopper, allowing rapid stops without stressing the DC bus. Mounting follows the normal cabinet locations assigned to A, B, and C frames, and wiring is completed through standard cable entries. Printed circuit boards are not coated, so applications must stay within clean, dry enclosures. Hardware A, C0, C1, and D plug-ins are omitted, and the C software slot is unused; adaptation B remains unset, yielding a base configuration shipped with the latest software release and the standard language pack.

User interaction is handled by the Graphical Local Control Panel, which offers direct parameter access and status viewing at the cabinet door. For closed-loop positioning tasks, the installed MCB-103 Resolver Option feeds rotor angle data to the control algorithms. Conducted electromagnetic noise is attenuated by the integrated RFI Filter, supporting compliance with factory EMC limits. The housing carries an IP20 / chassis protection level, so touch-safe terminals are provided, yet the assembly requires mounting inside a climate-controlled panel. Because the enclosure is intended for cabinet use, the drive relies on the surrounding panel for broader environmental protection and organized cable routing.
