Product Description:

The FC-280PK55T4E20H2BXCXXXSXXXXAY is an AC variable frequency drive manufactured by Danfoss for the VLT FC 280 Midi Drives series. It converts fixed-frequency mains into a modulated output so automation controllers can regulate induction-motor speed and torque. By varying output frequency and voltage, it helps connected motors match process demand more closely than fixed-speed operation. This makes the drive suitable for pumps, conveyors, and compact machine modules that do not require advanced drive functions.

This model delivers a continuous power rating of 0.55 kW and a corresponding shaft output of 0.75 HP. This power level fits small motor loads in auxiliary handling, light pumping, and other compact automation tasks. The input section connects to three-phase 380-480 VAC networks without additional transformers, and the integrated line filter is classified as EMC Cat C3 (200/400V) to reduce conducted radio-frequency emissions. The enclosure is rated IP20 / Chassis, so the unit requires installation inside a control cabinet for touch protection. The drive has no front-panel display, so parameter access is handled through the fieldbus, a USB service tool, or an optional remote keypad.

An onboard control card provides Integrated POWERLINK for real-time communication with PLCs, allowing cyclic speed references and diagnostic feedback over standard Ethernet cabling. Dynamic stopping energy is dissipated through a permanent brake chopper, eliminating the need for an external resistor interface card. Circuit boards carry a coated PCB finish that protects copper traces from ambient moisture and airborne contaminants often present in industrial enclosures. This added protection helps maintain reliable operation where dust, condensation, or light chemical exposure may be present inside the cabinet. Protective earth bonding and any required cabinet-level filtering must be completed according to local electrical codes.
