Product Description:

The FC-302P1K5T5E20H2XG is a variable-frequency drive manufactured by Danfoss for the VLT FC 302 Automation Drives series. In an automation cell, this drive modulates the output frequency supplied to an induction motor so that speed and torque can be matched to real-time process demands. By converting fixed mains power to a controlled waveform, it allows conveyors, pumps, and mixers to run only as fast as the application requires, which can reduce mechanical strain and improve energy use. This type of control also helps process equipment respond more smoothly to changing production conditions instead of operating continuously at full speed.

The power section accepts a line supply of 380–500 VAC derived from industrial feeders and delivers a continuous shaft output of 1.5 kW. Because the input is specified for three-phase power, the unit connects directly to standard plant distribution without external phase-conversion hardware. Its chassis has IP20 chassis protection, meaning live parts are finger-safe when the drive is mounted inside a closed panel. A built-in RFI filter reduces conducted electromagnetic noise so nearby sensing and communication circuits are less likely to be affected. This arrangement is intended for enclosure installation rather than exposed field mounting.

The drive is supplied for normal cabinet mounting for A, B, and C frames, so its footprint aligns with common enclosure layouts used across the platform. Motor capability reaches 2.0 HP, giving a quick reference when matching imperial-rated motors to the metric power value. Day-to-day adjustments are performed through the graphical local control panel, which presents parameter groups and real-time feedback on a backlit display. The display also allows operating values and settings to be reviewed directly at the drive. The unit has no brake chopper, so braking energy must be handled by the motor load or by an external resistor network when the application requires it.
