Selection Guide l VACON® NXP System Drive
Save costs and improve reliability – the easy way

The best partner for reliability and performance

Customers in heavy industries, such as Marine, Metals and Pulp and Paper, need drive systems that excel in terms of reliable performance. If you can rely on your system, it leaves you with more time and money to spend on optimizing the rest of the application.

• You can now be sure to receive a drive system that is unmatched in terms of quality and ready in a shorter space of time than ever before. That’s because we have changed our production approach to bring it into line with what customers are after. VACON® NXP System Drive ensures that you receive an excellent level of quality and service, each and every time.
• In the system drives business, communication between partners is the key to successful end result. Large-scale projects often feature many different components which are reliant upon communication on both sides to avoid technical problems anywhere down the line.

Driven by drives

• Our ability to work around the challenges our customers face everyday, regarding efficiency and cost savings, is the reason why we have reached where we are. By choosing Danfoss

• Drives, you can be sure to receive a top-class drive system – nothing else will do. We also won’t compete with system integrators
  for projects, unlike many other drive suppliers. This enables an atmosphere of mutual trust with our network of system integrators and end-users.

• Complex solutions   made simple

It’s essential that you receive a solution with a level of quality that’s as consistent as it is excellent. VACON NXP System Drive provides complex solutions which are simplified through standardization, resulting in a product that will easily integrate into the process. This doesn’t prevent you from getting the exact solution you need – we can tailor some elements of the system in order to meet your requirements.

Why choose VACON® NXP System Drive?

• Cost savings
  • Traditionally, the design of a project-based enclosure accounts for up to 35% of the total cost.
  • With VACON® NXP System Drive, this is reduced to around 5%.
• Focus on drives
  • We concentrate on drives so you can concentrate on the rest of the application.
  •  Danfoss Drives is always a non-competing partner for system integrators on projects.
• Quality as standard
  • Standardized and pre-tested solutions.
  • We support our customers by supplying them with complete drive systems.
• Proven track record
  • VACON® NXP Common DC Bus technology has been the ideal choice for drive systems for a number of years.

VACON® NXP System Drive – quality as standard

• Reliability is key
  VACON® NXP System Drive brings what customers need above all else – consistent and reliable quality guaranteed. We excel in delivering verified and tested solutions that combine VACON® AC drives, DC bus components and options. No need to worry about waiting for technical data, documentation or piloting – we’ve done all that before it reaches your premises.

• Quick installation
  Aside from the quality delivered, VACON® NXP System Drive is also easy to adapt. Engineered sections slot in alongside each other, allowing you to arrange integrated transport splits to save space. Alternatively, you can add extra transport sections to speed up installation. All larger modules have slide-out mechanics that facilitate setup and maintenance. This also enables late module delivery, which  can be helpful if the system is to be installed in a harsh environment. All sections are grouped depending on their functionality, making it possible to plan each installation phase exactly how you wish.

• Cost efficiency
  Besides the peace of mind that comes with stress-free installation and setup, you’ll also save a lot of time and money.

Key benefits

• Complete drive solutions

  • Standardized products which fit all your application needs
  • Modules can be delivered closer to start of the operation
  • Minimized lifetime cost

  • Industry-leading VACON® NXP and VACON® Common DC bus solutions
  • Safe, tested and verified design
  • Comprehensive documentation available with each delivery

• Save on time and cost

  • Modular design equipped with pull out feature for quick setup and maintenance
  • Short setup time
  • Easy to train onsite engineers
    

• This is because the setup is essentially formulated when you order it, meaning system integrators can get on with designing the rest of the application. The fact that the drive system’s setup is uniform also means that it’s far easier to provide spare parts.

Safety and service means a longer lifecycle

• A complex and wide-ranging solution is not one you want to have to replace, which is why VACON® NXP System Drive is built to last. One of the cornerstones of the relationship with our partners is a commitment to drives performance that goes far beyond the point of purchase.
• Items such as busbar systems and high/low power devices are separated into individual compartments, away from each other. This means that,  if things go wrong, the problem is compartmentalized and doesn’t cause widespread failure. The fact that VACON® NXP System Drive is easy to maintain also makes it safer.
• Service engineers are immediately familiar with the way the system is set up, meaning they can get straight to the focal point.

Proven AC drive technology for heavy industry

• Still need a reason to choose us? How about the fact that VACON® NXP drives have been leading the way in the industry for the past decade. Aside from frequency converter units, we can also deliver software and common DC bus components, which combine to make your personal solution.
