Lenze’s 8400 TopLine Inverter Drives
Lenze’s 8400 TopLine Inverter Drives feature an energy-saving V/f characteristic control mode (VFCplusEco).

Lenze’s (Uxbridge, MA) 8400 TopLine Inverter Drives offer automation control and support for asynchronous motors and dynamic synchronous servo motor applications. Features include:

An energy-saving V/f characteristic control mode (VFCplusEco)

Operation in partial load, with a 10 to 30% improvement in energy efficiency.

Lower inertia than standard asynchronous motors.

Sensorless vector control for synchronous motors.

A pluggable memory module and online diagnostics interface.

L-force drive configuration software.

A Safe Torque Off (STO) option that protects the equipment and user by disabling the drive and disconnecting the power supply to the motor so the drive cannot generate torque.

Integrated filters, brake transistors, pluggable memory chip and CANopen.

Plug-in compatibility with other existing fieldbus systems.

Optional communication modules that support EtherCAT, Ethernet POWERLINK, INTERBUS, PROFIBUS and PROFINET.

Sustained performance up to 300 cycles per minute with 0.01 mm accuracy in positioning tasks.

16 power levels from 0.37 to 45 kW.
