FAQs
ACS255-01U-10A5-2+B068 installation is straightforward for 240 V AC lines. Start with motor and mains wiring per the user manual, configure the integrated keypad for motor type and torque profile, and establish Modbus-RTU communication to the PLC. The compact enclosure supports indoor and outdoor mounting, and the 4X/IP66 rating protects against washdown and corrosion.
The drive features a UL listed NEMA 4X / IP66 enclosure and corrosion-resistant materials, providing robust protection against ingress in washdown and outdoor conditions. This design reduces maintenance frequency, minimizes corrosion-related failures, and supports long service life in dairy, meat processing, and other harsh facilities.
ACS255 supports sensorless vector control for both AC induction motors and permanent magnet (PM) motors, plus V/Hz control. This dual compatibility enables precise speed and torque across a range of loads, delivering optimized performance for pumps, fans, conveyors, and mixers without requiring feedback devices.
With variable torque and constant torque V/Hz profiles and sensorless vector control, ACS255 reduces startup currents and provides efficient torque matching to load. This translates into lower energy consumption, improved process stability, and longer motor life, particularly in applications with intermittent or varying loads like conveyors and pumps.
The ACS255 includes an embedded Modbus-RTU interface for real-time control and monitoring, enabling straightforward integration with existing PLCs and SCADA systems. This simplifies data collection, remote parameter adjustments, and synchronized operations across process lines, packaging interfaces, and automated conveyors.
