Easy setup

Built on the success and experience of more than 45 years in the drives field, the VLT® Midi Drive shares the same technical heritage represented by the VLT® name in AC drives.

Easy retrofit

  • VLT® Midi Drive is designed to be compatible with the VLT® 2800, for a fast, streamlined retrofit.

Product Overview

Therefore you can rely on the same low-maintenance robustness and reliability – once you have set it, it will run reliably, earning you energy savings for years on end.

Freedom from extra components

  • The integrated DC choke for 3-phase units and active power factor correction (PFC) for single phase units mean you achieve harmonic mitigation with no additional component costs or space requirements.
  • The built-in RFI disconnect switch minimizes leakage current and optimizes safe operation on IT mains – as standard.
  • VLT Midi Drive is designed to operate at 45 °C ambient temperature at full load and 55 °C with derating. This capability means that there is no need to install extra cooling equipment or to oversize the drive.

The integrated features translate into cost savings for your project by not having to oversize the drive due to temperature derating. Not having to purchase additional equipment saves on installation costs and space because no derating is needed.

Compact design for easy installation

  • The compact design, side by side, and horizontal mounting with zero clearance between the drives, make it simpler to optimize panel space.

Flexible/ Easy to use

Easy retrofit

VLT® Midi Drive is designed for compatibility with the VLT® 2800. Its exterior dimensions, connectors, cable lengths, and set-up software tools allow you to easily retrofit an established drive panel.

Service friendly

The integrated USB port as well as the VLT® Memory Module facilitates helpful implementation of factory settings for OEM and machine builders, fast installation of firmware updates, and easy commissioning of drives – a first for VLT® drives.

To transfer pre-defined parameter sets, make a backup copy, or commission the drive online, simply connect the FC 280 to a PC using the handy front-access USB port. Alternatively, connect via fieldbus. Clone a drive by using the VLT® Memory Module or just duplicate the settings using the LCP copy function.

Save time on set-up

Numeric or graphical LCP

Easy parameter set-up makes the path to energy savings both short and simple, via an enhanced numeric LCP or graphical control panel that supports seven languages. Targeted ‘Application Selections’ make it easy for users to set up and commission typical applications.

  1. The typical power loss is stated at nominal load conditions and expected to be within ±15% (tolerence relates to variations in voltage and cable conditions).
    • Values are based on a typical motor efficiency (IE2/IE3 borderline). Motors with lower efficiency add to the power loss in the AC drive and motors with high efficiency reduce power loss.
    • Applies for dimensioning of AC drive cooling. If the switching frequency is higher than the default setting, the power losses may rise. LCP and typical control card power consumptions are included.
    • Further options and customer load may add up to 30 W to the losses (though typical only 4 W extra for a fully loaded control card or Fieldbus).
    • For power loss data according to EN 50598-2, refer to www.danfoss.com/vltenergyeffifficiency.
  2. Measured using 50 m screened motor cables at rated load and rated frequency. For energy efficiency class, see the Operating Instructions, chapter 9.4 Ambient Conditions.

PROFINET

PROFINET uniquely combines the highest performance with the highest degree of openness. The PROFINET variant gives the user access to the power of Ethernet. It is designed so that many of the features from PROFIBUS can be reused, minimizing user effort to migrate PROFINET, and securing the investment in PLC program.

Other features:

  • Support of DP-V1 Diagnostic allows easy, fast and standardized handling of warning and fault information into the PLC, improving bandwidth in the system

PROFINET encompasses a suite of messages and services for a variety of manufacturing automation applications.

POWERLINK

POWERLINK represents the second generation of fieldbus. The high bit rate of industrial Ethernet can now be used to make the full power of IT technologies used in the automation world available for the factory world. POWERLINK does not only provide high performance real-time and time synchronisation features. Due to its CANopen-based communication models, network management and device description model offers much more than just a fast communication network.

POWERLINK provides:

  • Built-in high performance switch enabling line-topology, and eliminating the need for external switches
  • Perfect solution for material handling applications

EtherNet/IP™

Ethernet is the future standard for communication at the factory floor. EtherNet/IP™ is based on the newest technology available for industrial use and handles even the most demanding requirements. EtherNet/IP™ extends commercial off-the-shelf Ethernet to the Common Industrial Protocol (CIP™) – the same upper-layer protocol and object model found in DeviceNet.

Advanced features:

  • Built-in high performance switch enabling line-topology, and eliminating the need for external switches
  • Advanced switch and diagnosis functions
  • Unicast and Multicast communication

EtherCAT

The EtherCAT offers connectivity to EtherCAT®- based networks via the EtherCAT Protocol. The option handles the EtherCAT line communication in full speed. This allows to participate in networks ranging from low performance up to servo applications.

  • EoE Ethernet over EtherCAT support
  • CoE (CAN Over Ethernet) for access to drive parameters
  • TCP/IP for easy access to drive configuration data from MCT 10

PROFIBUS DP

Operating the AC drive via a fieldbus enables you to reduce the cost of your system, communicate faster and more efficiently, and benefit from an easier user interface.

PROFIBUS DP provides:

  • Wide compatibility, a high level of availability, support for major PLC vendors, and compatibility with future versions
  • Fast, efficient communication, transparent installation, advanced diagnosis and parameterization and auto- configuration of process data via GSD-file
  • Acyclic parameterization using PROFIBUS DP-V1, PROFIdrive or Danfoss FC profile state machines, PROFIBUS DP-V1, Master Class 1 and 2

CANopen

  • High flexibility and low cost are two of the “cornerstones” for CANopen. The CANopen variant is fully equipped with both high priority access to control and status of the AC drive (PDO Communication) and access to all parameters through acyclic data (SDO Communication).
  • For interoperability the option has implemented the DSP402 AC drive profile.
  • This all guarantees standardized handling, interoperability and low cost.

Modbus RTU

  • The Modbus RTU protocol is based on the integrated RS485 (EIA-485) interface on the control card.
  • RS485 is a two-wire bus interface that allows multi-drop network topology.
  • Danfoss uses the two-wire system where the communication between master and slave is half-duplex, meaning it cannot transmit and receive at the same time.

According to the EIA-485 specification:

  • A total of 32 nodes can be connected to one Modbus RTU network segment
  • A total of 247 nodes in a network are supported
  • Network segments are divided with repeaters
Functional Extension

Functional extension: Functional safety over fieldbus

The functional safety software variant (SFS1 in typecode) enables activation of Safe Torque Off (STO) and Safe Stop 1 (SS1-t) via the PROFIsafe fieldbus in combination with integrated PROFINET. It improves flexibility by connecting safety devices within a plant. The safety functions are implemented according to EN IEC 61800-5-2.

The functional safety option supports PROFIsafe functionality to activate integrated safety functions of the VLT® Midi Drive FC 280 from any PROFIsafe host, up to Safety Integrity Level SIL 3 according to EN IEC 61508/62061, Performance Level PLe, Category 3 according to EN ISO 13849-1.

Features:

  • PROFIsafe device
  • Reduces external safety equipment required
  • Dynamic commissioning report
