Product Features
Energy-efficient
ECO mode ensures optimal performance and lowest losses at low dynamic loads, optimizing output power.
Internal measured data. The actual effect differs from motor feature and performance.
- Applicable to 4kW IE2 asynchronous motors
- Load rate: 40%
- Motor count: 10
- Running times per year: 24 hours, 365 days
- Speed control mode: V/F, VF energy-saving mode: Max. efficiency
- Gain coefficient for energy saving: 100%
- Angle compensation coefficient for energy saving: 80%
Valid only for asynchronous motor control and V/F control. It is recommended to enable this function for fan and pump applications with small load variations.
Bypass function: External contactors can be controlled by relays to achieve industrial frequency switching and reduce energy consumption.
Energy-saving control: Enables sleep at night or energy-saving operation under extremely low load conditions by avoiding frequent start and stop.
Multifunctional
- Retention at transient voltage drop: Ensures continuous operation of equipment during short-term fluctuations in the power grid.
- Multi-pump switch-over and auxiliary pump start/stop: Supports variable-frequency pump water supply in the cyclic mode and the fixed mode, and provides sleep control (Note: An additional relay card is required). The VFD does not designate a pump as the variable-frequency pump. When the water supply pressure is insufficient, the running variable-frequency pump will switch to the power frequency operation, and then the next pump will become the variable-frequency pump (up to 8 variable-frequency pumps can be controlled. Only one variable-frequency pump can be used at the same time).
- Level control: When the water level is lower than the lower level limit and higher than the water shortage level, the system runs with the reserve pressure for abnormal cases. When the water level is lower than the water shortage level, the system stops all operations.
- Soft filling of water pipes: The VFD prevents the water hammer effect by slowly and smoothly injecting water into the water pipe during power-up.
- Pipe break detection: Pipe break detection is conducted based on the running frequency of VFD or the upper limit of PID output frequency.
- Rotating speed tracking (for fan): Tracks the rotating speed of the fan before start-up to reduce the shock to the devices and improve the restart efficiency.
- Multi-step speed reference: A total of 16-step speeds can be set by combining digital states of the four terminals, enabling airflow regulation at different time periods or load conditions.
- Regeneration avoidance (for fan): A fan is in the state of slight regeneration under the influence of other fans that share the same pipe. The VFD will automatically increase the output frequency to prevent over-voltage alarm and ensure the stable operation of the machine.
- Fire ride through (for pump): When a fire breaks out in a tunnel or building, the VFD can quickly disperse smoke and ignore other control commands and internal protection functions to keep working.
- Restart after power off: The VFD can automatically start up by itself when power-off restart is enabled.
Safe and Reliable
- Desilting: The motor periodic forward rotation, sleep, and reverse rotation enable the pump self-cleaning function, reducing the manual cleaning workload.
- Independent air duct design: The independent air duct effectively improves the protection effect of the VFD by preventing dust from entering the machine, and brings out the heat from the VFD to improve its reliability and extend its service life.
- Frost proofing: When the ambient temperature falls below a set threshold, the motor will automatically rotate to prevent water from freezing and thus protect the pump.
- Motor heating: The VFD outputs DC current to increase the surface temperature of the motor during work interruption, avoiding motor failure caused by condensed water.
- Enhanced PCB coating: After strengthened in terms of three proofings, the PCB gains a strong protection ability to resist harsh environments, which guarantees the long-term healthy operation of the VFD.
- Safe Torque Off (STO) function: Built-in STO function (only GD270-EU models support). Designed according to relevant international standards, meeting SIL3 level (TUV certificate acquisition in progress).
Configurable
