FC-302P3K7T2E20H2XXXXXXSXXXXAXBXCXXXXDX Danfoss VLT AutomationDrive FC 302

Product Overview

The FC-302P3K7T2E20H2XXXXXXSXXXXAXBXCXXXXDX (131B0287) is a high-performance, heavy-duty frequency converter from the Danfoss VLT® AutomationDrive FC 302 series. Rated for 3.7 kW (5.0 HP) at 200-240V, this drive is engineered for the most demanding industrial automation tasks, offering exceptional control over any motor technology, including permanent magnet and asynchronous motors. The FC-302P3K7T2E20H2XXXXXXSXXXXAXBXCXXXXDX is designed to maximize uptime in high-torque applications such as cranes, extruders, and complex conveyor systems. Its advanced hardware architecture, including the integrated H2 RFI filter and the robust A3 frame size, ensures reliable operation in environments requiring strict electromagnetic compatibility and precise motion control.

Technical Configuration

The FC 302 series is the top-tier platform in the VLT portfolio, characterized by its modularity and high-speed processing capabilities.

• Power & Voltage: Optimized for 3.7 kW / 5.0 HP output with a three-phase input range of 200 - 240 VAC, making it ideal for regions or facilities with low-voltage industrial grids.

• EMC Compliance: Features an integrated H2 RFI filter, which ensures the drive meets industrial-grade electromagnetic interference standards, protecting sensitive sensors and communication lines nearby.

• Enclosure Architecture: Utilizing the A3 frame size with an IP20 rating, this chassis-based unit is designed for efficient heat dissipation within a controlled electrical cabinet environment.

• Modular Interface: While currently configured with standard "X" options (No LCP, No Brake Chopper), the FC 302 platform allows for extensive future scalability via A, B, C, and D option slots for advanced networking and functional safety.

• Mechanical Integrity: At a net weight of 5.91 kg, the drive features a high-grade aluminum and plastic construction designed for long-term vibration resistance and thermal stability.

Technical Specifications

Technical FAQs

Can I upgrade this drive to include a display and manual control later?

Yes. Since the LCP (Local Control Panel) slot is marked "X," you can purchase a separate LCP 102 (Graphical) or LCP 101 (Numerical) display and hot-plug it into the front of the drive for local commissioning and diagnostics.

What is the significance of the H2 RFI filter in this model?

The H2 filter (RFI Class A2) allows for the use of shielded motor cables up to 50 meters (150 meters unshielded) while maintaining compliance with industrial EMC limits. This prevents the drive from interfering with other electronic components on the same power bus.

Is this drive suitable for applications requiring dynamic braking?

This specific configuration (Suffix X for Brake) does not include a built-in brake chopper. If your application involves fast deceleration or overhauling loads (like a hoist), you should consult with a technician to determine if an external braking module or a different FC 302 configuration with a "B" suffix is required.

Engineering & Installation Guide

• Cooling and Clearance: The A3 frame size relies on vertical airflow for cooling. Ensure a minimum of 100 mm (4 inches) of free space above and below the unit. The FC 302 supports side-by-side mounting without derating, allowing for maximum density in your control panel.

• Grounding for EMC: To fully utilize the integrated H2 RFI filter, you must use a shielded motor cable. The shield must be connected to the metal decoupling plate of the drive using a 360 degree clamp. This creates a low-impedance path for high-frequency noise, ensuring stable operation of nearby PLC and communication modules.

• Control Wiring Isolation: Always separate the high-voltage mains/motor cables from the low-voltage control and communication wiring. Use separate cable ducts or maintain a distance of at least 200 mm to prevent cross-talk and erratic signal behavior in the analog and digital inputs.
