- LED display for parameter monitoring (4-digit, 7-segment)
- Keypad interface (5 buttons) for parameter programming
Working Principle:
AC mains is rectified to DC via a diode bridge and filtered to a 310 V DC bus. The IGBT inverter (PWM, 8 kHz switching frequency) converts DC back to variable-frequency AC for the motor. The microcontroller (STM32F103 or equivalent) implements V/F or sensorless vector control algorithms. The built-in PID controller adjusts motor speed based on the 4–20 mA feedback signal to maintain constant pressure or flow.
Key Advantages:
- Built-in PID controller eliminates need for external PLC
- Dry-run protection prevents pump damage
- Modbus RTU for SCADA integration
- Compact design fits in small enclosures
Applicable Industries:
Water supply and distribution, boiler feed systems, HVAC circulation, irrigation, fire suppression systems.
Installation Requirements:
- Install in IP54-rated enclosure for outdoor/wet locations
- Connect motor cable with maximum length 50 m (unshielded) or 100 m (shielded)
- Ground motor frame and drive chassis to PE
- Set carrier frequency to 4 kHz if motor noise is an issue
Usage Precautions:
- Perform auto-tuning before first operation
- Set acceleration/deceleration ramps appropriate for pump system (typically 5–30 s)
- Do not operate without motor connected (open-loop protection active)
- Check fan operation if ambient exceeds 40°C
