Energy Efficiency: New Variable Speed Drives

June 16, 2011
The A1000 variable speed drive offers a multi-language LCD display, parameter storage, application presets and a portable USB copy unit.
Suited for material handling and food and beverage applications, the system provides three expansion ports for additional I/O, feedback and network communications. Communication protocols include Devicenet, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP/IP, Profibus-DP, PROFINET and MECHATROLINK-II. DriveWizard software delivers configuration, monitoring, and trending function enhance by direct connectivity through the drive's standard USB port. Features include DC reactors that reduce harmonic demand from the power system and all materials comply with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) directive. The drive is available in 200-240VAC three phase 50/60 Hz (up to 175HP), 380-480VAC three phase 50/60 Hz (up to 1000 HP) and 500-600VAC three phase (up to 205 HP) ratings.  Yaskawa America, Inc. www.yaskawa.com >> Literature & Software Downloads from Yaskawa, click here.
