195N0215 by Danfoss

The 195N0215 is a low-voltage AC drive manufactured by Danfoss for the VLT 2800 Low Voltage Drives series. It is intended for industrial automation tasks where variable motor speed is required to match flow, pressure, or mixing demands in pumps, fans, and process equipment. By electronically converting incoming power to a controlled output frequency, the unit allows flexible motor control while helping reduce energy use on lightly loaded equipment. This operating method supports smoother adjustment of connected machinery than fixed-speed line operation. It can be used where stable speed adjustment improves process consistency during changing load conditions.

It handles a motor with a mechanical output of 0.75 HP and an electrical rating of 0.55 kW. The input accepts 200-240 V AC from branch circuits, and the internal converter reconstructs the waveform to deliver regulated three-phase voltage at the programmed frequency. Because the mains connection is single-phase, the drive can be powered from common facility circuits without requiring a dedicated three-phase feed. An IP20 protection rating means the enclosure helps prevent accidental finger contact with live parts, but the unit should still be mounted inside a control cabinet. These limits indicate the thermal and electrical load the power stage can sustain during continuous operation.

Mechanical integration is aided by the slim Bookstyle housing, which allows several drives to be mounted side by side with minimal clearance. Its narrow format also helps conserve cabinet space in compact enclosures. Local setup is handled through the built-in display (SLCP), which provides access to operating values and parameter changes at the front of the unit. There is no application option installed, and the intended duty profile is Process. Field network communication is not built in, so the drive relies on hard-wired I/O or analog reference signals for speed control and basic integration with surrounding equipment.
