Easily handle high-power, highly redundant application requirements

VACON® DriveSynch is a brand-new control method that enables the parallel connection of standard drives to manage high-power motors. It’s typically used to drive power loads exceeding 1 MW by controlling single- or multi-winding motors.

• Capable of driving motors with power up to 5 MW

• Modular configuration, easy to scale

• Large loads can be distributed and driven by multiple smaller actuators.

• Each drive operates independently, resulting in higher redundancy.

• The drive unit has a smaller volume, making it easier to install and maintain.

• Effectively reduce spare parts demand and system setup costs.

• No specialized high-power drive system installation, maintenance, or engineering experience required.

• Controllable multi-winding motor operation

Fully meeting the demands of high-end drive applications

In addition to the common wall-mounted units, the air-cooled VACON NXP series is also available as compact, lightweight cabinet models and IP00 drive modules. The lightweight cabinet models come in either IP21 or IP54 protection ratings, making them ideal for applications that demand a highly compact inverter design and effortless installation. Meanwhile, the IP00 modules are specifically engineered for easy cabinet integration, featuring a robust, square-shaped structure that simplifies and streamlines the installation process—particularly well-suited for OEM and system integration applications.

To meet the demands of high-power motor drives or applications under harsh environmental conditions, Vacon can also offer the VACON NXC high-performance frequency converter cabinet, the VACON NXC low-harmonic energy-regenerative frequency converter cabinet, as well as the water-cooled VACON NXP, catering to a broader range of industrial drive applications.
