KBVF

Chassis type - Hybrid AC Drive: a digital drive with analog interface

The KBVF Series of Adjustable Frequency Drives consist of sixteen inverter models rated for 1/10 to 5 horsepower motors. These chassis / IP 20 drives are ideal for OEM applications where digital programming and displays are not required. Hybrid drives are a digital drive with an analog interface.

Primary Features

  • Horsepower 1/10 to 5 HP
  • 1Ø & 3 Ø Input 115/230/460 VAC, 50/60 Hz
  • 3 Ø Output 230/460 VAC 
  • 200% Starting Torque
  • Power & Status Indicators
  • IP-20 Enclosure

Benefits

  • Saves Time. Easy to Install and Simple to Operate. Does not require programming or commissioning. Up and running in less than 10 minutes.
  • Motors Last Longer. Proprietary CL Software. Provides overload protection, prevents motor burnout and eliminates nuisance tripping. UL approved as electronic overload protector for motors. 
  • Energy Saving. Uses only the power the application requires. Replacing constant speed with variable speed will significantly reduce energy costs.
  • Economical to Use. Combines Soft Start with Variable Speed. Adjustable Soft Start.
  • KB Customization for OEM’s. When an off the shelf drive does not meet your needs, we will work with you to provide a custom drive solution, Ready to Use, “Out-of-the-Box.” Customization includes: Pre-calibrating or programming of a stock control, adding a custom label or branding, custom software, PLC functions or designing a new control. GFCI software, with factory programming, allows the equipment to operate with Ground Fault Circuit Interruption circuit breakers or outlets

Additional Features

  • Sensorless Flux Vector Control. Flux Vector Compensation with Static Auto-Tune provides excellent speed regulation with high torque loads throughout the entire speed range. Auto energy saving at light loads. Smooth motor torque.
  • Electronic Inrush Current Limit (EICL™) Protection. Eliminates harmful inrush AC line current during power up.
  • Ride-Through. Provides smooth recovery to the previous set speed during a momentary power loss.
  • Holding Torque at Zero Speed. Resists motor shaft rotation when the drive is in “Stop” mode.
  • Regeneration Protection. Eliminates tripping due to high bus voltage caused by rapid deceleration of high inertial loads.
  • Undervoltage and Overvoltage Protection. Shuts down the drive if the AC line input voltage goes above or below the operating range.
  • Short Circuit Protection. Shuts down the drive if a short circuit occurs at the motor (phase-to-phase).
  • Basic, Programmable, Trimpot Adjustments. Min. Speed, Max. Speed, Accel, Decel, Current Limit, Slip Comp. Drive

Options

  • Drive-Link™ Programming Kit. Allows PC programming.
  • SIVFR Signal Isolator and Run Fault Relay (Standard on 460 VAC models). Provides isolation between a non-isolated signal source and the drive. • DIVF Modbus Serial Communication Module
  • Class “A” or “B” (CE) RFI Filter. Installs on drive.
  • DBVF Dynamic Brake Module. Provides faster braking.
  • Multi-Speed Board. Provides up to four independently adjustable preset speeds.
  • KBRK Remote Digital Keypad. Allows remote operation and programming of drive (OEM applications only).
  • IOVF Input/Output Multi-Function Module. Adds up to 17 points of additional I/O.
