Product Description:

The 132L2686 is an AC motor drive produced by Danfoss for the VLT FC 302 Automation Drives series. Within an automation cell, this unit modulates the frequency and voltage applied to an induction motor so that conveyor, pump, or process speed can be matched to real-time demand. The product belongs to the VLT AutomationDrive FC group and carries the series identifier 302, linking it to the manufacturer’s higher-performance platform aimed at machine-level control tasks in industrial plants.

The drive accepts a mains input of 380 - 500 VAC, a range that covers the most common three-phase supply grids in manufacturing facilities. At the output side, it can deliver up to 20 HP, allowing it to run medium-sized motors used in material-handling or fluid-movement systems. Its continuous power rating is 15 kW, which is the maximum shaft power that can be sustained without derating at standard ambient conditions. Operation is based on three-phase power, so the rectifier and inverter stages are arranged for symmetrical current flow and balanced loading of the supply transformer. These ratings outline the drive's operating range for motor, fuse, and cable selection.

An MCB-103 resolver option can be installed for feedback when a resolver is preferred over an encoder, while an integrated RFI filter reduces conducted emissions for EMC compliance. Local setup and diagnostics are handled by the Graphical Local Control Panel, which provides text and icon guidance in the standard language pack. For controlled stopping under fault or emergency conditions, the power section incorporates a brake chopper that directs surplus energy to an external resistor. The printed circuit boards are not coated, so installation should avoid aggressive airborne chemicals. All remaining expansion slots—A, C, C0, C1, and D—are shipped empty, and the adaptation-B field is unchanged.
