More power from dynamic flux drives
VLT 5000 Flux Series drives now provide up to 373kW of dynamic flux vector control for closed-loop applications.
Closed-loop control provides servo-like features
VLT 5000 Flux Series drives are now available with an optional SyncPos control card for additional positioning and synchronising control.
Their enhanced design provides an optimised drive solution for industrial applications.
Benefits of the new Flux design include: space savings - the new designs are on average 35% smaller than their predecessors, with the smallest NEMA12/IP54 full-featured drive on the market; lower cost - modular construction allows users to buy only what is needed; easy retrofit - operating software and options remain the same; high reliability - optimised design simplifies mounting and wiring and reduces the overall number of components; high quality - each unit us built using the latest manufacturing techniques combined with extensive testing and burn-in; increased performance - higher ambient temperature, improved EMC performance and higher dynamic brake duty cycle; easy maintenance and service - drive design focused on maintenance and service to ensure continuous operation; and easy installation - the customer-reviewed designs ensure greater ease of installation.
Enhanced features of the redesigned units include: built-in RFI performance to EN55011 class B available; integral disconnect with option of available fuses; new power termination design for easy installation, accepting single box lug or dual cable legs; logic routing includes tie-down provisions to simplify installation and protect against noise disturbance; 98% operating efficiency; options available from Rittal for easy installation of IP00 units in Rittal TS8 enclosures; and ambient temperature ratings of 40-45C in VT mode, 50C with changes in switching pattern.
