134F3012 FC-360H1K5T4E20H2BXCDXXSXXXXALBX Frequency Converter

Product Overview

The 134F3012 (134F3012) is a high-performance VLT® AutomationDrive FC 360 designed for precise and efficient motor control in a wide range of industrial applications. Engineered for High Overload (H) capacity, this 1.5 kW (2.0 HP) frequency converter is built to handle the demanding torque requirements of conveyors, mixers, and packaging machinery. Its compact IP20 chassis design and coated PCBs (Class 3C3) make it exceptionally resilient in harsh environments where dust or moisture might otherwise compromise electronics. By integrating a built-in ProfiNet control card and an internal brake chopper, the 134F3012 provides a streamlined, "all-in-one" solution for modern automated systems, significantly reducing cabinet space and installation complexity while maintaining peak energy efficiency.

Technical Specifications

Technical FAQs

Does this unit come with a display for local programming?

No, the 134F3012 is the "X" display configuration, meaning it has no blind cover or LCP (Local Control Panel) included. Configuration is typically performed via the ProfiNet interface or by adding an external VLT® Control Panel as an accessory.

What is the benefit of the "Coated PCB" in this model?

The "C" suffix indicates that the circuit boards have a protective coating. This is critical in industries like wastewater treatment or textile manufacturing, as it prevents corrosion from hydrogen sulfide (H2S), humidity, and conductive dust.

What is the function of the "Brake Chopper" (B)?

The integrated brake chopper allows the drive to connect to an external braking resistor. This is essential for applications that require fast stops or involve overhauling loads, as it dissipates the kinetic energy that flows back to the drive during braking.

Can this drive be used in a shared DC bus system?

Yes, the "D" mains option indicates Loadsharing capability. This allows multiple drives to be connected via their DC terminals, enabling energy exchange between motoring and braking drives to improve overall system efficiency.

Engineering & Installation Guide

• ProfiNet Network Topology: When integrating the 134F3012 into a ProfiNet network, use shielded Cat5e or Cat6 industrial Ethernet cables. Ensure the ground connection of the AL control card is securely bonded to the chassis to prevent communication "jitter" caused by high-frequency motor switching noise.

• Heat Dissipation & Clearance: As an IP20/Chassis unit, the FC 360 requires adequate airflow for the internal cooling fans. Maintain a minimum of 100 mm clearance above and below the drive. For multi-drive installations, side-by-side mounting is possible, but ambient cabinet temperature must be monitored to stay below 45 deg C to avoid automatic current derating.

• Brake Resistor Selection: If utilizing the Brake Chopper, ensure the external resistor matches the specified resistance (Ohms) and wattage for a 1.5 kW load. Use shielded cables for the brake resistor connection and ensure the shield is grounded at both the drive and the resistor enclosure to minimize EMI.
