September 29, 2015 - Lenze releases i500 frequency inverters that are compliant with efficiency class IE2, and feature a slim design and peak energy efficiency in the 0.33 to 60 Hp (0.25 to 45 kW) power range.
The compact, modular Lenze i500 frequency inverter features a lower housing depth along with a sophisticated cooling system to reduce heat losses and allow side-by-side installation with minimal wiring in a smaller control cabinet. Inverters for control cabinet installation feature IP20 and IP31-rated protection.
Delivering functional scalability and integrated safety, the i500 power section is structurally separate from the control unit, and contains different forms of field bus communication, including Ethernet, multiple I/O interfaces, and plug options for a keypad, a USB interface or a wireless LAN module. These interfaces provide users with greater flexibility and ease of commissioning, parameter setting, maintenance and diagnostics. The wireless LAN module can communicate with a PC or via a smart phone keypad application.
