AC30 Variable Frequency Drives

AC30 Variable Frequency Drives have been designed to provide users with exceptional levels of control, from simple open-loop pumps and fans through to closed-loop process line applications. Its flexible and highly modular construction enables a wide range of communications and I/O modules to be easily added as required. The AC30 has been designed with simplicity in mind, but this doesn’t compromise its functionality. Integrated macros for a range of applications and PLC functionality enable more capable users to create sophisticated control that would previously have required a separate PLC.

Flexibility
• Open-loop or optional closed-loop operation with pulse encoder or resolver feedback module
• Suitable for operation with AC induction and Permanent Magnet AC (PMAC) servo motors
• Ethernet TCP/IP as standard
• I/O expansion options
• Support for popular industrial fieldbuses
• Chassis or through-panel mount as standard

Simplicity
• Parker DSE Lite or Parker Drive Quicktool (PDQ) drive management software tool
• Multi-language graphical keypad
• Quick start wizards
• Terminal covers removable with drive in place

Reliability
• Conformally coated for harsh environment protection as standard
• Marine application certified (through 100 HP)
• Isolated power stack cooling with removable fan

When starting a VFD motor project, In-Position Technologies engineers start by reviewing the key requirements to determine the optimum VFD for the job. They perform all necessary engineering calculations to make sure the VFD performs as required, within customer specification, and without unnecessary cost.

This includes:

• Motor torque, speed, and inertia matching
• Ensuring compatibility with the motor drive and available power
• Specifying the appropriate feedback device, encoder (incremental vs. absolute), resolver, etc…
• Verifying mounting compatibility, form factor checks, etc…
• Ensuring all necessary accessories are also specified

When ordering Parker AC30 Variable Frequency Drives as a part of a full system, IP Tech engineers review the solution to ensure:

• All parts and accessories necessary for a complete working solution are included
• All components have been checked and verified to work together as a system
• The selected components will perform as required by the project specifications
