Product Description:

The FC-051P1K5T4E20H3BXCXXXSXXX is an AC variable frequency drive manufactured by Danfoss within the VLT FC 51 Micro Drives series. As a micro drive, it modulates motor voltage and frequency so automated conveyors, pumps, and small-frame machinery can vary speed without mechanical throttling. This compact unit is intended for cabinet installation where space, simple wiring, and basic closed-loop motor control are required in industrial automation cells. Its compact housing also reduces the amount of panel space needed for auxiliary motor applications.

The drive delivers a continuous output of 1.5 kW, equivalent to 2.0 HP, providing sufficient capacity for fractional-to-medium-power induction motors used on auxiliary axes. It accepts a mains supply of 380 to 480 VAC from a three-phase network, so it connects directly to standard plant distribution without a transformer. An enclosure rating of IP20 with a chassis enclosure allows mounting inside ventilated electrical panels while helping prevent accidental finger contact with live parts. Conducted emissions are attenuated by the integrated RFI Class A1/B filter, supporting compliance with general industrial electromagnetic compatibility limits. The control board has a coated PCB that protects copper traces against moisture and airborne contaminants. Power and signal conductors enter through standard cable entries, allowing conventional wiring routes without special gland plates.

A built-in brake chopper dissipates regenerative energy so the motor can decelerate quickly without tripping the DC bus, which is useful for indexing operations or high-cycle stops. Although a local control panel is omitted, parameters remain accessible through compatible PC tools or remote input and output connections. The no-adaptation configuration keeps the housing compact and avoids additional application-specific controls. Motor speed can be adjusted electronically to match changing process demand, reducing reliance on valves, dampers, or mechanical speed-control devices. Cabinet airflow should be arranged around the chassis to remove operating heat and maintain reliable performance under continuous load.
