Single-phase variable-frequency drive
Fields of application
Industrial automation, HVAC systems, food processing, machine tools (food processing machines, commercial washing machines, press machines), conveyors, pumps and fans, lifting cranes, stacker cranes and many other applications requiring precise motor control.
Benefits
The FRENIC-Ace E3 Single-Phase Variable Frequency Drive is designed to provide a high-performance, compact solution for applications requiring a 200 V single-phase power supply. As the direct successor to the FRENIC-Ace E2, it retains the features that have made the series a success while incorporating enhancements designed to improve its integration, connectivity, and control performance.
Available in several configurations, including versions with a built-in EMC filter, without heat sinks, or with an onboard Ethernet interface, it easily adapts to the installation constraints of compact machines and stand-alone industrial equipment. Its optimized design also allows for side-by-side mounting to reduce the space occupied in electrical cabinets.
The FRENIC-Ace E3 Single-Phase drive provides precise motor control thanks to its advanced dynamic vector control algorithm. Its high output frequency, which can reach up to 599 Hz, enables it to handle applications requiring high speeds while ensuring stable operation at low speeds. The built-in logic functions offer great flexibility in configuration to simplify integration into automated systems.
Designed for connected industrial environments, it features a dedicated RS-485 communication port and can be supplemented with various networking options such as EtherNet/IP, PROFINET, or Modbus TCP. The TP-A2SW multifunction keypad with Bluetooth connectivity simplifies commissioning, diagnostics, and maintenance operations, while the built-in traceability features help optimize equipment availability over the long term.
