HydroDrive™ Variable Frequency Drive for Metering Pumps
The HydroDrive™ AC Variable Frequency Drive is a variable speed control in a NEMA-4X / IP-65 washdown, watertight enclosure. It is designed to operate 208-230 Volt 3-phase AC induction motors through 3.6 Amps RMS. The sine wave coded Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) output operates at a frequency of 16Hz which provides high torque and high efficiency at a low noise level.
Standard Features:
Motor Overload Protection**
200% Starting Torque
Electronic Inrush Current Limit
Short Circuit Protection
Regeneration Protection
Slip Compensation with Boost
Ride Through Power Interruptions
Diagnostic LEDs
100% Holding Torque at 0 RPM
Barrier Terminal Block
NEMA-4X / IP-65 Enclosure
Notes: **UL approved as an electronic overload protector for motors.
