195N0041 by Danfoss

The 195N0041 is an AC variable-frequency drive produced by Danfoss for the VLT 2800 Low Voltage Drives series. Designed for process automation, it converts fixed mains power into a regulated output so motor speed can be varied on pumps, fans, and small conveyors. The unit is housed in a book-style enclosure that conserves panel width when several drives are mounted side by side. It is intended for low-voltage motor control where stable speed adjustment is needed without using a fixed-speed starter.

It accepts 200-240 V AC, and its terminals allow single-phase or three-phase wiring, so the same frame can operate from single-phase mains or a balanced three-phase source. On single-phase input, the current rises to 14.5 A, which must be matched with suitable upstream protection. The inverter supplies up to 1.5 HP, which corresponds to a 1.1 kW rating. A built-in SLCP display provides local parameter access, and Profibus DP handles communication with a PLC. The drive uses standard hardware, has no application option, comes without coating, and has no internal RFI filter, so external EMC components are required.

Its continuous output current is 6.0 A, and the drive withstands transient loads up to 9.6 A for sixty seconds, supporting short process surges without fault trips. This current capability supports routine operation under steady load while still allowing temporary overload during startup or short acceleration periods. The protection rating is IP20, so live parts are finger-safe, but the cabinet must provide additional enclosure protection. Mechanical dimensions remain compact at 168 mm depth and 75 mm width, while the height is 200 mm for dense vertical mounting that makes good use of the book-style format. Despite the integrated display and fieldbus electronics, total mass stays at 2.0 kg, which helps when the drive is mounted on DIN rails or shallow backplates.
