Designed for unparalleled energy saving, optimised speed control, simple start-up, and versatility, Mitsubishi Electric has developed a new generation of drive technology: the remarkable FR‑F800.
The FR‑F800 is mainly designed to be used with pumps, fans and compressors and HVAC applications. It features many innovative functions that allow for the best compromise between efficiency and accurate control.
At the heart of the FR‑F800 drive is an enhanced PID controller. This means that fan, pump and compressor control is easily handled without the need for external controllers. Furthermore the built-in PLC means true stand-alone capability.
Through a unique algorithm we are able to accurately detect the fan or pump curve of the attached load and alarm when the load falls outside of adjustable limits. This means that we can detect for example, jammed pumps, dirty impellers or broken belts. Because we utilise this method of detection, nuisance trips that are associated with other systems are avoided.
The motor preheat function can be used to avoid moisture collecting on the motor windings in periods of inactivity and prior to motor start up. This can also be used to reduce condensation, or freezing of a pump station.
With the addition of the -E2 series, CC-Link IE Field Basic, Ethernet on Board is now also available.
