Compact ac drive for industrial and building automation

The new Vacon NXL is a powerful and compact ac drive for industrial and building automation in the power range from 0.25 to 30kW.

The space-saving bookshelf design with high protection classes, versatile control and programming capabilities offer an optimal solution for all operating environments.

Thanks to extremely effective design, everything is included as standard.

The company says that the units can be wall-mounted without additional cabinets because of high protection classes.

The RFI filters and brake choppers are always integrated. The standard units fit almost everywhere in both industrial and residential areas.

The integrated ac choke is an effective protection against the overvoltage spikes and for reducing the stress of the supply transformers, cables and fuses.

Although the Vacon NXL is simple in construction compared to other Vacon NX ranges, it is the most flexible drive in its class

The flexibility means a wide range of control possibilities, programmable features, installation possibilities and modularity

The units in the enclosure classes IP21 and IP54 are designed for wall mounting and for mounting in a separate enclosure.

The drives can directly be connected to both the commercial and the industrial network, thanks to the integrated EMC/RFI filters and ac chokes. The smaller-sized MF2 and MF3 units (in the enclosure class IP20) are designed for mounting in a separate enclosure. They can be delivered with DIN rail or screw mounting options.
