Product Description:

The 131X5572 decentralized frequency converter is produced by Danfoss and belongs to the VLT FCD 302 Decentral Drives series. Mounted close to the motor, the unit combines power electronics and fieldbus connectivity inside a sealed housing, allowing speed regulation of small-frame induction motors directly on the machine and reducing long motor cable runs. By removing the need for large control cabinets, the drive simplifies wiring in automated conveyor, mixer, and pump installations where distributed positioning and energy optimization are required across the line.

It operates on a three-phase supply of 380-480 VAC, so it can be powered from standard low-voltage industrial mains without autotransformers or separate line-conditioning equipment. The internal inverter is rated at 0.37 kW, which matches the mechanical output of 0.5 HP motors commonly used on compact material-handling equipment and similar decentralized drive points. An IP66/NEMA 4X enclosure protects the electronics against dust, water jets, and routine washdown, and the housing is finished in standard white with no brackets installed. Field integration is provided through the Profibus DP A-option card, while the unit is delivered without a brake, without a display connector, and without pre-fitted fieldbus, mains, or motor plugs at the enclosure.

Supplementary functions are handled by the 24 VDC backup input, which keeps the control electronics active during mains interruptions so parameter data and network communication remain available for the connected system. Electromagnetic emission is controlled by the integrated RFI Class A1/C2 filter, a requirement in plant sections where sensitive sensors run alongside power wiring and communication lines. The unit is model 302 in the VLT Decentral Drive FCD group, and the configuration omits the B option, sensor plugs, any local switch option, and the installation box for threaded glands on the housing.
