Control Techniques’ Unidrive M600 variable speed AC drive (VFD) delivers increased machine performance with sensorless induction and sensorless permanent magnet motor control for dynamic and efficient machine operation. An optional encoder port can be used for precise closed loop velocity applications and digital lock/frequency following for induction motors.

Additional I/O, encoder feedback options, industry standard fieldbuses and Ethernet communications maximize system connectivity and flexibility

 
  • High power modular drives

    Unidrive M’s modular offering gives you never before seen flexibility in building compact, reliable high-power solutions. Paralleled together, Unidrive M can control asynchronous and synchronous motors up to 2.8 MW (4,200 hp). At the top of the modular drives range, the Frame 12 is a 500 kW (700 hp) single module that delivers unmatched power density, while keeping both footprint and system costs to a minimum. The Unidrive M modules can be paralleled together into a wide range of flexible solutions to solve all system needs, including Active Front End and multi-pulse rectifier configurations.

    Efficient system build

    Designing and building a high power drive cubicle takes immense engineering knowhow. Most people don’t have that expertise in-house, but we do. And we’ve put it all into our DFS freestanding drives. The cubicle system is designed to make the most of our high power modular drives, benefiting the applications that need them the most. The results are maximum energy efficiency in an ingress protected package. Our cubicle drives come pre-assembled, easy to set up, with all necessary system components included. Furthermore, we can ship your Freestanding drive to you with a very short lead time, saving weeks on typical industry standards.

 
  • Functional Safetyfunctional-safety

    All Unidrive M drives have integrated dual Safe Torque Off (STO) inputs, certified to SIL3 / PLe, providing an elegant and reliable safety solution. 
    The addition of an MiS210 safety option extends the built-in STO with the ability to safely monitor and/or restrict the scope of motion. 
    Safety functions include: STO, SBC, SOS, SS1, SS2, SLS, SSM, SLA, SDI, SLP & SES
    For maximum flexibility in the safety system architecture, the modules support both wired and network safety connections: CIP-Safety on EtherNet/IP and Safety over EtherCAT (FSoE).
