Product Description:
The FC-280P1K5T4E21H2BNCXXXSXXXXAX is an AC variable frequency drive manufactured by Danfoss as part of the VLT FC 280 Midi Drives series. Designed for panel mounting, it provides speed regulation for three-phase induction motors used in material-handling lines, ventilation systems, and compact process machines. By modulating output frequency instead of relying on mechanical throttling, the device can reduce energy consumption, soften startup transients, and match motor torque to changing load demands. Its compact format supports installations where enclosure space is limited, while electronic speed control allows connected machinery to adjust its operating rate without mechanical transmission changes.
The drive accepts a three-phase 380–480 VAC supply, making it suitable for standard industrial power systems. Its inverter section provides 1.5 kW of continuous output, corresponding to a shaft capability of 2.0 HP when connected to an appropriate motor. Deceleration energy is dissipated through an integrated brake chopper, which helps prevent DC-bus overvoltage during rapid stops. Conducted emissions are reduced by the factory-installed EMC Category C3 filter for 200/400 V systems, supporting use in industrial environments that meet the applicable C3 installation requirements. The internal electronics have a protective coated PCB that resists airborne moisture and contaminants. This coating provides added protection for the control circuitry when the drive operates in industrial enclosures exposed to dust or humid air.
Adaptation options A and B are supplied without additional modules, leaving optional hardware functions uninstalled. Control and monitoring signals are handled by a standard control card with Modbus, enabling direct register access from compatible PLCs without an additional communication gateway. The standard language pack provides the available interface text for local operation and parameter management. Because the order includes no mains options, suitable upstream circuit breakers and any required external filtering must be provided as part of the installation. The drive can exchange operating commands, status information, and parameter values through its Modbus connection, allowing centralized control within a compact automation system.
