Boosts performance & efficiency
15 December 2014
Motovario has launched Drivon, an advanced generation of inverter motor featuring state-of-the-art field-oriented control, with built-in Safe Torque Off (STO) and flying motor restart that simplifies system integration and product approval testing.
Motovario’s advanced vector control algorithms maintain torque over a wide frequency range, minimise demand for cooling, and enhance tolerance of over-torque conditions. The integrated STO with dedicated input provides operator safety in accordance with EN954-1 cat-3 and IEC 61508 SIL2. Flying motor restart provides greater efficiency and additional protection of the circuitry for long-term reliability. In addition, optional dynamic braking with energy recovery ensures fast response to changing speed demands and minimises operating costs.
A smart keypad simplifies user set-up, and each Drivon also has a USB port for configuration and monitoring.
Typical speed range is 0-3000 rpm, and single/three phase power ratings are from 0.25 to 5.5kW. Applications include conveyors, palletisers, pumps, fans, mixers, rotary tables, presses, winders, unwinders and elevators.
