Mitsubishi Electric's FR-E500 frequency inverters bring a large number of intelligent functions and communications capabilities to the compact class up to 7.5kW. The series features SLV Vector Control and Soft PWM, which enables very powerful torque, particularly in the lower speed range. Active current limiting makes tripless operation possible across the entire acceleration and deceleration range. A brake chopper is included as standard equipment.
The FR-E500 supports connections to open field bus systems like Profibus/DP, DeviceNet and CC-Link. Other communications facilities like the integrated RS-485 interface enable the configuration of multidrop applications with up to 32 stations and connection of the latest PC and process visualisation systems.
The integrated control unit with the one-touch Digital Dial control facilitates efficient entry of all drive parameters. Or you can choose the alternative alphanumeric control panel with multi-language support and a copy function. Both displays provide at-a-glance information on the current status of the drive system and clear error messages.
