Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the I55AE175B10V10000S suitable for both 1-phase and 3-phase power supplies?

Yes, the i550-Series is designed for high versatility. It can accept single-phase input to drive three-phase motors, provided the motor's voltage and current ratings are compatible with the output of the drive.

What does the "C2 EMC" coating signify for my installation?

The C2 EMC classification indicates that the drive meets stringent electromagnetic emission requirements for industrial environments. This reduces the risk of interference with nearby sensitive electronic sensors and communication lines.

How do I configure this drive for a new machine project?

The i550-Series utilizes Lenze’s modern configuration tools (such as the EASY Starter software), which allow for rapid commissioning through a PC connection. The interface provides guided parameterization for standard motor types, making initial setup fast and reliable.

Engineering Integration and Operational Safety

• Installation Clearance: Despite its compact dimensions (13 x 18 x 6 cm), ensure a minimum vertical clearance of 100 mm above and below the drive to permit adequate cooling airflow. Installing these units too close to each other without proper thermal planning can lead to premature derating.
• Grounding and Shielding: To fully utilize the C2 EMC coating, ensure the drive chassis is securely connected to the cabinet's protective earth (PE) busbar with a low-impedance cable. Use shielded motor cables, connecting the shield 360 degrees to the drive’s EMC clamp.
• Wiring Terminations: Use high-quality ferrules for all control and power wire terminations. Given the compact terminal blocks, ensure wires are routed to avoid strain on the connectors, which helps maintain secure contact under vibration.
• Commissioning Safety: Always verify the motor’s connection type (Delta vs. Star) to match the drive’s output voltage. Incorrect wiring can cause excessive current draw, leading to immediate drive protection trips or potential motor damage.
