Product Description:

The FC-302P15KT5131B1731H2BGXXXXSXXXXAXBXCXXXXDX is an AC variable frequency drive supplied by Danfoss within the VLT FC 302 Automation Drives series. By modulating output frequency and voltage, the unit allows PLCs and plant controllers to regulate the speed of induction motors rather than operate them continuously at a fixed utility frequency. Typical applications include adjusting pump output, matching conveyor speeds to production flow, and reducing inrush torque during soft-start sequences on industrial machinery.

The drive provides a continuous output of 15 kW, which corresponds to 20 HP and indicates the mechanical power available to a connected motor under a steady load. The input section accepts 380–500 VAC, allowing direct connection to common industrial power distribution systems without an autotransformer. The unit operates with three-phase power, supporting balanced input current and consistent torque production when paired with a compatible squirrel-cage induction motor. Its variable-frequency output also allows motor speed to follow process demand, which can reduce unnecessary energy consumption in pumps, fans, conveyors, and other equipment with changing loads.

The model has no C1 option, indicating that an internal first-environment EMC filter is not installed. External EMC suppression may therefore be required when the drive operates in residential areas, sensitive test cells, or other locations with strict conducted-emissions limits. A standard language interface provides the factory multilingual text set for keypad navigation without additional language licenses. The 302 control platform supports compatible fieldbus cards, safe-torque-off modules, cooling accessories, and other options intended for this drive generation. These interfaces allow the drive to exchange commands and operating data with higher-level control systems while maintaining closed-loop process coordination across automated machinery.
