1.4 Product Overview
1.4.1 I
ntended Use
The drive is an electronic motor controller intended for:
Regulation of motor speed in response to system feedback or to remote commands from external controllers. A power-drive
system consists of the drive, the motor, and equipment driven by the motor.
System and motor status surveillance.
The drive can also be used for motor protection.
Depending on the conguration, the drive can be used in standalone applications or form part of a larger appliance or installation.
The VLT® Decentral Drive FCD 302 is designed for decentral mounting, for example, in the food and beverage industry, or for other
material handling applications. With the FCD 302 , it is possible to reduce costs by placing the power electronics decentrally. Central
panels are then rendered obsolete, saving cost, space, and eort for installation and wiring. The basic design is service-friendly with
a pluggable electronic part and a exible and spacious wiring box. It is easy to change electronics without the need for rewiring.
Installation environment: The drive is allowed for use in residential, industrial, and commercial environments in accordance with
local laws and standards.
