Product Description:

The FC-280PK75S2E20H1XXCXXXSX is a variable frequency drive produced by Danfoss for the VLT FC 280 Midi Drives series. In an automation cell, it sits between the single-phase mains and an AC motor, converting fixed line power into a controlled voltage-and-frequency output that follows changing load demand. This arrangement lets the motor accelerate, decelerate, and hold commanded speed more smoothly than direct line starting. The unit provides speed regulation for conveyors, pumps, and fans while occupying minimal panel depth. Its compact format suits OEM machinery where space inside the enclosure is limited and cable routing must remain simple.

The inverter supplies up to 0.75 kW of continuous power, which corresponds to 1.0 HP and suits small induction motors used in auxiliary machine functions. That power level fits compact process sections such as feeders, small pumps, and light conveyor zones. It operates from a single-phase 200–240 VAC circuit, which allows use on equipment that does not have a three-phase supply available. The integrated filter is rated EMC Cat C1 (200 V) / C2 (400 V), which helps support emission control in standard industrial installations. The IP20 / Chassis enclosure has finger-safe ventilation openings and requires cabinet installation for protection from dust and liquid exposure. A coated PCB adds resistance to moisture and flux residue on the control electronics.

Factory settings are arranged for straightforward setup. Adaptation A and B are fixed with no adaptation, so only the universal parameter set is active during initial use. The front cover has no display, so settings are adjusted through a detached keypad or a fieldbus connection rather than an onboard screen. Operation changes are typically handled from a remote interface when the drive is installed behind a cabinet door. The drive is supplied with no brake chopper, so braking energy is not dissipated by internal hardware. It also has no mains options, so external supply protection and disconnect devices must be selected in the surrounding panel.
