Product Description:

Danfoss positions the FC-280PK55T4E20H2BXCXXXSXXXXAL within its VLT FC 280 Midi Drives series, which is designed for mid-range automation tasks that require variable-speed control in compact cabinets. The frequency converter connects an industrial AC supply to an asynchronous motor and regulates the electrical power delivered to the motor. By adjusting output frequency and voltage, it provides programmable acceleration, deceleration, speed, and torque control for conveyors, mixers, pumps, and other production machinery. Its compact format helps reduce the panel space required for motor control equipment.

The drive supplies a continuous mechanical output of 0.55 kW, which corresponds to 0.75 HP. It accepts a three-phase 380–480 VAC input, allowing connection to commonly used industrial power systems without a step-up or step-down transformer. An internal RFI filter classified as EMC Category C3 (200/400 V) reduces conducted radio-frequency interference in industrial installations. The enclosure has an IP20 chassis rating, which protects against accidental finger contact with hazardous internal parts but does not provide protection against water. Installation inside a suitable closed electrical panel is therefore required. This configuration does not include a mains disconnect, so the required line isolation and overcurrent protection must be installed separately. A blank front plate indicates that the drive does not have an integrated display, and its operating settings can be accessed through compatible PC tools or a connected network controller.

A built-in brake chopper controls regenerative energy produced by the motor during rapid deceleration. An external braking resistor can be connected to dissipate that returned energy and help prevent excessive DC-link voltage during demanding stop cycles. The control electronics use a coated printed circuit board that provides additional protection against moisture, dust, and airborne contaminants in ventilated cabinets. Network communication is provided through an integrated PROFINET interface, which supports cyclic setpoint transfer, operating data exchange, and remote diagnostics without an additional communication module. Parameter text is supplied through the standard language pack, providing the normal menu terminology for configuration and monitoring. Adaptation options A and B are not included in this configuration.
