Product Description:

The 131X1730 is an AC variable-frequency drive from Danfoss in the VLT FC 302 Automation Drives series. It sits between the three-phase mains and a connected motor to regulate voltage and frequency with closed-loop control. That operating role supports accurate speed and torque management in conveyors, pumps, mixers, and other automated machinery that must respond consistently to changing process demands.

This model accepts an input range of 380 to 500 VAC and uses three-phase power, which matches common industrial supply networks. Its output is rated at 15 kW, or about 20 HP, so it can run medium-sized motors in typical production equipment without requiring an oversized drive frame. A built-in brake chopper dissipates regenerated energy during rapid deceleration and helps maintain controlled stopping under high-inertia conditions such as loaded conveyors or rotating assemblies.

The integrated MCB-103 resolver option supports feedback applications that rely on resolver signals instead of incremental encoders, making it useful where rugged sensing is preferred. An IP20 chassis enclosure is intended for cabinet mounting while still protecting the internal assembly from incidental contact with energized sections. A coated PCB helps shield critical circuitry from moisture and conductive dust in demanding industrial environments and supports longer service life in enclosed panels.

Wake Industrial stocks this drive and can arrange same-day shipping for time-sensitive orders. Quotations remain valid for 30 days to simplify purchasing and budget planning for scheduled maintenance. The chat tool available on the website can be used for general questions about type codes or fault codes.
