Product Description:
The FC-101P18KT4 is an AC variable frequency drive produced by Danfoss for the VLT FC 101 HVAC Basic Drives series. This chassis-level device integrates into building automation systems to regulate motor speed in ventilation, pumping, and compressor equipment, ensuring that process airflow or fluid flow follows real-time demand while lowering electrical consumption. It handles constant-torque and variable-torque loads in packaged rooftop units and chilled-water pumping applications.
Rated at 18.5 kW of output power, the inverter delivers up to 25 HP to the motor terminals while operating from a supply range of 380 to 480 VAC. With a 380 to 440 V supply, the continuous output current reaches 37.0 A, and the typical conversion efficiency is 97.9%. The drive dissipates 456 W of heat during full-load operation, and its maximum input current is 35.2 A. An internal A1/C2 radio-frequency interference filter limits conducted emissions to levels suitable for HVAC applications. The unit does not have a brake chopper, so external dynamic braking hardware is required when an application needs rapid deceleration. A coated printed circuit board protects the electronics against airborne moisture, and the unit is supplied without a local control panel, leaving parameter access to remote fieldbus or PC tools.
The drive uses frame size H5 and measures 150 mm wide, 334 mm high, and 255 mm deep. Its IP20 enclosure is intended for installation inside a control cabinet, and the unit has a maximum weight of 9.5 kg. Three-phase terminals accept cables up to 16 mm² (6 AWG), while the busbar design helps maintain phase balance. Power connections are positioned on the chassis base, leaving unobstructed airflow around the internal heat sinks.
