CIMR-VC4A0038HAA-0080 Yaskawa Inverter V1000, 400 V, VT: 38 A / 18,5 kW, CT: 31 A / 15 kW, IP66 with Digital Operator

Why Choose the Yaskawa CIMR-VC4A0038HAA-0080 V1000 AC Drive?

The Yaskawa CIMR-VC4A0038HAA-0080 is a high-capacity V1000 series variable frequency drive (VFD) engineered for precise speed and torque control of three-phase AC motors in demanding industrial automation environments. By converting fixed-frequency AC input power into a variable-frequency output, the inverter allows motors to operate efficiently while improving machine performance, reducing mechanical stress and lowering energy consumption.

Designed for operation from a three-phase 380–480 V AC power supply, the drive supports motors up to approximately 15 kW heavy-duty or 18.5 kW normal-duty. The V1000 platform incorporates advanced open-loop vector control technology, enabling stable torque production and precise speed control while supporting both induction motors and permanent magnet motors without feedback devices.

This model features a robust IP66 / NEMA Type 4X enclosure with integrated digital operator, allowing installation directly on machinery or in harsh industrial environments without requiring a sealed control cabinet. The enclosure protects against dust, water jets and wash-down conditions, making the drive ideal for demanding production lines, outdoor installations and heavy industrial machinery.
