To protect the frequency converter from overheating, install a thermistor and As all 400 V units in the VLT 2800 Series have intermediate connect it to the thermistor input (digital input) of the circuit coils, there is only a low amount of harmonic mains frequency converter.
The directive applies to all electrical equipment and appliances used in the 50-1000 V AC and the 75-1500 V DC voltage ranges. Danfoss CE labels in accordance with the directive and issues a declaration of conformity upon request.
1.7 Selecting the Correct Frequency Converter 1.7.1 Introduction This section explains how to specify and order a VLT 2800. The frequency converter must be selected on the basis of the present motor current at maximum loading of the unit. The frequency converter's rated output current I must be equal to or greater than the required motor current.
VLT 2800 is available with or without an integral 1A RFI- filter. The integral 1A RFI filter complies with EMC An LCP 2 control panel to be connected via a plug to the standards EN 55011-1A.
To comply with EN55011-1A, the EMC filter for long motor The protocol standard is based on an RS-485 bus system cables can only be fitted to a VLT 2800 with integral 1A with a maximum transmission speed of 9600 baud. The filter (R1 option).
Minimum distance above and below RFI 1B 100 mm To comply with EN 55011-1B, the RFI 1B filter module must filter be fitted together with a VLT 2800 with integral 1A RFI Mounting Vertical mounting filter. only Dimensions HxWxD (mm)
To comply with EN 55011-1B, the RFI 1B filter module must is activated if an overtemperature arises. The frequency be fitted to a VLT 2800 with integral 1A RFI filter. converter can be programmed to stop the motor and activate an alarm via a relay output or a digital output if NOTICE the thermistor is activated.

1.9 PC Software MCT 10 Set-up Software All frequency converters are equipped with a serial communication port. Danfoss provides a PC tool for communication between PC and frequency converter, VLT Motion Control Tool MCT 10 Set-up Software. MCT 10 Set-up Softwarehas been designed as an easy-to- use interactive tool for setting parameters in the frequency converters.

Design Guide Illustration 1.12 Frequency Converter with Brake Resistor and Thermal Switch Some of the Danfoss brake resistors contain a thermal switch (see chapter 1.11.13 Brake Resistors). This switch is NC (normally closed) and can be used e.g. coasting stop reverse between terminal 12 and 27.
Installation Design Guide 3.3 Electrical Installation Side-by-side installation All VLT 2800 units can be installed side-by-side and in any 3.3.1 High Voltage Warning position, as the units do not require ventilation on the side. WARNING The voltage of the frequency converter is dangerous whenever the equipment is connected to mains.
