Product Description:

The FC-280P2K2T4E20H2BXCXXXSXXAN is an AC variable frequency drive produced by Danfoss and supplied under the VLT FC 280 Midi Drives series. In industrial automation, it regulates the speed of three-phase induction motors, allowing conveyors, pumps, and fans to match process demand while reducing mechanical wear and energy use. Its compact chassis suits machine-mount or cabinet installations where space is limited.

This model delivers a continuous output of 2.2 kW, a rating that aligns with applications needing up to 3.0 HP of shaft power. It accepts a supply of three-phase 380-480 VAC, so it connects directly to common industrial mains without transformers. Dynamic stopping is handled by an internal brake chopper that diverts regenerated energy to a resistor, helping prevent overvoltage trips during rapid deceleration. The chassis carries an IP20 chassis protection rating, which indicates basic finger protection inside an electrical panel but no sealing against liquids. An integrated DC-link reactor and line filter support operation, and the drive’s thermal design keeps full current available at ambient temperatures typical of control rooms.

Electromagnetic emissions are limited by a factory-installed EMC Category C3 (200/400 V) RFI filter, making the unit suitable for environments that require conducted noise control on long motor cables. Reliability in dusty or humid locations is improved by a coated PCB, which helps shield circuitry against moisture and airborne contaminants. Field interaction is handled through digital terminals because there is no display on the front panel, and parameter changes are made with a remote keypad or PC tool. The design has no mains options. Adaptation A and Adaptation B use the standard configuration, so the unit does not include custom modules.
