Now with IP66 rating
24 October 2014
First launched last year by Parker, the variable frequency AC10 Micro Drive now features an IP66/NEMA 4x rated enclosure for protection against the ingress of dust and water, making it even more attractive to machine builders faced with designing systems for challenging operating environments

One of the smallest micro drives available, the AC10 IP66 delivers simple yet proficient motor control in day-to-day applications requiring speed or torque control within the power range of 0.4 to 15 kW. The enhancement to offer an IP66 rated enclosure (IP66 is equivalent to NEMA rated 4 and 4x enclosures) is in direct response to market demand for a micro drive able to resist specific 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.
