New frequency inverter to fill void

Second quarter 2006 Other technologies

IndraDrive Fc, a new Rexroth standard frequency inverter available from Tectra Automation, covers the entire performance range from 0,25 to 7,5 kW without leaving any gaps. IndraDrive Fc offers comprehensive functions along with simplicity in installation, commissioning and operation. Integrated monitoring functions and an integrated EMC interference suppression facility guarantee maximum system reliability. IndraDrive Fc communicates with modular function modules at all levels. Profibus, CANopen and DeviceNet are available as fieldbus modules.

The intelligent AC Inverter concept enables convenient fitting of the inverters and the arrangement of a number of units right next to each other. Plug-in control terminals make installation rapid and simple. Commissioning, with intelligent motor identification, can be carried out comfortably and conveniently by means of an operation module without the requirement for a PC. Four sizes and two mains input voltage ranges are available (1/3 x AC 230 V and 2 x AC 400 V).
