Compact drive offers IP66 environmental protection up to 90kW

Parker Hannifin has extended the power range of its IP66/NEMA 4x protected, variable frequency AC10 Compact Drive series up to 90kW.

Claimed to be one of the smallest compact drives available, the AC10 IP66 delivers motor control in day-to-day applications requiring speed or torque control within the power range of 0.4 to 90kW. The extension up to 90kW for the IP66 range is in direct response to market demand for a high power compact drive able to resist harsher environmental conditions.

The IP66 enclosure enables its use in both indoor and outdoor applications where harsh conditions may be a concern, such as wash-down areas in food and beverage facilities, and in waste plants or rooftop units.

The AC10 IP66 drives provide sensor-less vector mode, an output frequency of up to 59 Hz, three-phase 230 and 400V supplies in all five frame sizes, and a full 150% overload for one minute. In addition, the compact drive is designed to cut the time and effort needed to install, set-up and commission using its integrated keypad.
