CIMR-VC4A0031FAA Yaskawa Inverter V1000, 400 V, VT: 31 A / 15 kW, CT: 24 A / 11 kW, NEMA 1

Why Choose the Yaskawa CIMR-VC4A0031FAA V1000 AC Drive?

The Yaskawa CIMR-VC4A0031FAA is a high-performance V1000 series variable frequency drive (VFD) designed for precise speed and torque control of three-phase AC motors in industrial automation systems. By converting fixed-frequency AC input power into a variable-frequency output, the inverter allows machines to operate more efficiently while improving process control and reducing energy consumption.

Operating from a three-phase 380–480 V AC supply, the drive supports motors up to approximately 11 kW heavy-duty or 15 kW normal-duty. The V1000 platform integrates advanced control technologies including open-loop vector control, support for permanent magnet motors without feedback and automatic motor tuning for improved performance across a wide range of industrial applications.
