Product Description:

The Danfoss FC-302P18KT5E20H1XGXXXXSXXXXAXBXCXXXXDX is a variable frequency drive in the VLT FC 302 Automation Drives series. It converts fixed-frequency AC power into adjustable output to control speed and torque on conveyors, pumps, and other industrial loads. By varying motor frequency, the drive helps coordinate process timing, improve energy use, and reduce mechanical stress on three-phase induction motors during acceleration and deceleration. This control method also lets connected motors run closer to actual process demand instead of staying at a fixed line speed.

The drive accepts an input of 380 – 500 VAC, so it can be connected directly to common plant distribution systems. Designed for three-phase power, it suits standard industrial electrical service and supports balanced current flow. Its continuous electrical capacity is 18.5 kW, which corresponds to 25 HP of motor power. The enclosure has an IP20 chassis rating, so the terminals are finger-safe, but the unit still requires installation inside a protective control panel. In typical cabinet layouts, the drive mounts on a back plate and uses standard cable entry positions for power and control wiring.

All expansion positions are empty, so the A, B, C1, C0, and D slots do not include added hardware options. This base configuration does not include a brake chopper or a dedicated line-side option. Electromagnetic compatibility is supported by an integrated RFI Class A1/B (C1) filter, and a graphical local control panel provides on-drive parameter access in the standard language pack. The circuit boards are not coated, which is suitable for clean, temperature-controlled enclosures, and the installed software is supplied at the latest release level. Front-panel access also allows local viewing of status information and operating values without an external interface.
