FAQs
This drive is designed for on-wall mounting in LV AC systems and supports up to 30 kW at 400 V with a 62 A input. Use the Hand-Off-Auto panel for basic operation, Drive Composer for configuration, and ensure IP21 enclosure (IP55 option available) aligns with your plant environment. Verify motor polarity, cable sizing, and protective device coordination, then commission using the PC tool to validate sensorless control and soft-start ramps.
Key features include sensorless flow calculation, multipump control, level management, soft pipe fill, dry run protection, quick ramps, and a pump impeller cleaning solution. These enable precise pump matching to process demand, prevent dry running, and reduce wear. In water and wastewater applications, this translates to stable head and flow, lower energy use, and extended pump life.
Yes. The drive is tailored for water and wastewater pumping with pump-specific functions, energy-saving capabilities, and protection features that mitigate common municipal challenges such as variable flow, cavitation risk, and dry running. Its compact wall-mount form and available IP55 option support installation in treatment plants and pump stations with space or environment constraints.
The product comes with IP21 protection by default and offers IP55 variants for harsher environments. These IP ratings address protection against ingress and dust in typical water and wastewater facilities, while enabling reliable operation in damp or dusty plant rooms when configured with IP55 enclosures.
By incorporating an energy calculator, energy efficiency improves pumping performance and reduces electricity bills. Dry run protection and quick ramps minimize maintenance costs and extend motor life, while multipump control reduces equipment wear during load fluctuations. Drive Composer and the Hand-Off-Auto panel reduce commissioning time and downtime, delivering faster project ROI.
