Why Choose the Lovato VLG30075A480 Variable Speed Drive?
The Lovato VLG30075A480 is a 7.5 kW three-phase variable speed drive from the VLG3 series, designed for precise speed and torque control of three-phase AC motors in industrial machinery and automation systems. It operates from a 380–480 V AC three-phase supply at 50/60 Hz and delivers a rated output current of 16 A.
The VLG30075A480 provides a three-phase output adjustable from 0–480 V AC with an output frequency range of 0–400 Hz. Multiple motor-control modes are available, including linear V/f, quadratic V/f, custom V/f and sensorless vector control, allowing the drive to be configured for applications ranging from pumps and fans to conveyors and general-purpose machinery.
For straightforward integration into industrial control systems, the drive includes RS485 communication with Modbus RTU, a built-in Category C3 EMC suppressor, an integrated brake chopper and configurable digital and analogue I/O. Functions including PID control, autotuning, flying restart, DC braking and preset speeds provide additional flexibility for machine builders and automation engineers.
