Toshiba VFAS3-4150PC

The Toshiba VFAS3-4150PC is a high-performance adjustable speed drive from Toshiba’s AS3 series. This drive is engineered to manage the most rigorous industrial applications, offering precise motor control, robust communication capabilities, and improved safety features.

Technical Specifications:

The VFAS3-4150PC can handle both light and large loads thanks to its 460 VAC input voltage. It has a normal-duty output of 25 horsepower and a heavy-duty output of 20 horsepower. With ratings of 31.7A for heavy duty and 39.2A for regular duty, the FLA is more than capable of handling substantial power loads with ease.

The narrow 9.1-inch width, 7.7-inch depth, and 21-inch height make this model a miniature. Because of its diminutive size, it is simple to include in a wide range of industrial environments. The drive’s light weight—about 35.8 pounds—makes it easy to install and maintain.

Because of its versatile architecture, the VFAS3-4150PC can function in a wide variety of environments. The most significant temperature it can withstand is 50°C, and it can be derated to +60°C. It is adaptable to a wide range of climates thanks to its resistance to derating at altitudes of up to 1000 meters and non-condensing humidity levels of up to 95%.

One standout feature of the VFAS3-4150PC is its ability to connect several drives on a single network using its dual-port EtherNet/IP functionality. Streamlining cable management and improving system interoperability are both made more accessible by this capability. Furthermore, the built-in web server allows for easy diagnostics and modifications by providing normal web browser access to setup parameters and real-time monitoring.

Communication and Control Features:

The VFAS3-4150PC’s LCD and smart keyboard simplify setup and use. The IP65-rated multi-language LCD can be mounted remotely and survive harsh conditions. The drive’s calendar and real-time clock for fault logging are essential for performance and maintenance monitoring.

The VFAS3-4150PC has an STO terminal for safety. IEC-compliant, this removable terminal strip allows emergency system shutdown. In industrial environments, operator and equipment safety is crucial.

The drive can operate permanent magnet motors for enhanced torque and efficiency. This is ideal for accurate motor control and energy conservation applications. With sleep and multi-PID control, it can regulate pumps independently based on system needs.

Software and Applications:

Toshiba’s ASD Pro software allows logic-type programming on the VFAS3-4150PC without a micro PLC. This simplifies programming and cuts costs. With its built-in web server and connectivity, the drive is ideal for IoT and Industry 4.0 applications that require remote monitoring and advanced data analytics.

Many industrial operations require accurate motor control and reliable operation, making the Toshiba VFAS3-4150PC perfect. Factory-friendly, it supports fans, pumps, and conveyors. Intelligent features like permanent magnet motor control and multi-PID pump control aid automated assembly lines, HVAC systems, and water treatment plants. Its compatibility with Industry 4.0 and IoT makes it essential in modern smart factories, ensuring stable and efficient operation in high-demand industries.
