vacon 5x

small and robust ac drive

the simple drive for harsh environments

The Vacon 5X is a small and robust range of AC drives designed for the harsh environments
found in most process industries and on building sites. The powers available are from
0.37 kW to 7.5 kW (220 V, single-phase, 220 V and 400 V three-phase). The Vacon 5X range
is suited for all types of applications, typically industrial conveyors, fans and pumps.

The rugged IP55 enclosure allows installation directly on the Features
