Product Description:

The 132H4997 decentralized drive is manufactured by Danfoss within the VLT FCD 302 Decentral Drives series. Designed for field mounting, it combines power electronics, filtering, and local I/O in one housing so the motor can be controlled without a separate cabinet-mounted inverter. By placing speed regulation at the point of use, it simplifies wiring and helps distribute control across conveyors, pumps, and agitators in automated plants exposed to moisture, dust, or cleaning chemicals.

The drive operates from a three-phase supply of 380–480 V AC, letting it use standard industrial mains without an isolation transformer. Its continuous mechanical output is rated at 4.0 HP, which corresponds to a shaft power limit of 3.0 kW for the connected motor. To minimize conducted and radiated noise on the feeder circuit, the unit carries an internal filter that meets RFI Class A1/C2 emission limits. Environmental protection is provided by a black powder-coated enclosure sealed to IP66/NEMA 4X, which helps block high-pressure washdowns and airborne contaminants. Mechanical accessories such as motor-side brackets, mains plugs, or integrated brakes are omitted, reducing weight and maintaining a slim profile for wall or machine mounting.

System integration is supported through the factory-installed EtherCAT option, allowing deterministic communication with PLCs while maintaining decentralized intelligence. Parameter access is simplified by a service port supplied with a display connector, so a handheld keypad can be attached for setup without opening the housing. Installation hardware uses metric threads, enabling direct fitment to European or ISO-compliant panels. The electronics use a complete large stand-alone configuration that includes all required gate drivers and IGBT protection on a single board.
