Product Description:

The FC-302P2K2T5E20H1BXXXXXSXXXXAXBXCXXXXDX variable frequency drive is manufactured by Danfoss and belongs to the VLT FC 302 Automation Drives series. It is designed to control the speed of standard three-phase induction motors by converting fixed line frequency into a pulse-width-modulated output. The inverter adjusts output frequency and voltage together so the connected motor can deliver controlled acceleration, deceleration, and steady-state operation across changing load conditions. In automated plants, the unit is installed in control cabinets and accepts digital or analog command signals so conveyors, pumps, or ventilators can run at operating points that match real-time process demand. This operating method can reduce mechanical stress on driven equipment and avoid the abrupt starts associated with across-the-line motor operation.

The electrical section is wired for three-phase power, allowing direct connection to industrial feeders without phase conversion. Line terminals accept 380–500 VAC, so the same model can operate on common 400 V and 480 V systems with only minor setup changes. Its continuous output capacity is 2.2 kW, which corresponds to 3.0 HP. That power level suits smaller motors used on utility and material-handling equipment where variable speed is more important than high peak output. The unit has an IP20 / Chassis enclosure rating, so it must be installed in an enclosed panel where conductive dust and water jets are not present.

The integrated brake chopper provides a path for excess regenerative energy when high-inertia loads decelerate, which helps the drive handle stopping cycles more effectively. To support electromagnetic compatibility, the drive includes an RFI Class A1/B (C1) filter that attenuates conducted emissions on the line side and helps reduce interference with nearby control wiring. The drive uses normal cabinet mounting for A, B, and C frames, allowing the heat-sink base to fasten directly to a backplate through slotted holes. The control boards are not coated, so the unit should be used in clean indoor enclosures where ambient humidity and airborne contaminants remain within normal limits.
