Omron Electronics LLC (www.omron247.com) has introduced 3 new high-performance AC drive series that help machine builders and plants achieve energy savings in a time of rising utility costs and extend motor life to reduce operating costs. These AC drives were designed to be easy to install and maintain for fast commissioning and maximum system availability. The 3G3JX series for simple applications offers V/Hz control; the compact 3G3MX for side-by-side mounting offers open loop control; the 3G3RX series provides both open- and closed-loop control, and advanced features to meet the needs of challenging torque and speed control applications.
"This new line of drives fills a gap in our industrial automation offering and allows someone to build a more complete control system from Omron as a primary supplier," according to Gregg Holst, the Americas President and COO for Omron Electronics LLC. The simplicity of operation and ease of integration into new and existing machines was a guiding design concept for the line. Omron's service organization provides critical support for AC drives throughout a machine's lifecycle. Users can take advantage of Omron application engineers' experience optimizing the performance of AC drives in automation projects and fabricating custom control panels, obtaining training and extending operation life with board repair services. These space-saving AC drives are also RoHS compliant to assist in pursuing environmentally responsible procurement and e-waste disposal programs.
Highlights of the three new AC drives series are shown below:
AC Drives for Simple, General Purpose Applications-Model 3G3JX o V/Hz control can be used for simple, general purpose applications such as fans, blowers and pumps. o Top and bottom wiring enables simple contactor replacement o Side-by-side mounting contributes to space savings o Micro-surge Voltage Suppression reduces motor burn out, allows use of most general purpose induction motors o Automatic Energy Saving Function significantly reduces energy usage on constant speed fan and pump applications o Overcurrent and Overvoltage trip suppression reduces nuisance tripping o Restart Function allows automatic recovery from momentary power loss o Built-in PID function eliminates the need for external controller o Wide selection of models: ¼ to 3 hp, 240 VAC single phase starting at $256 list; ¼ to 10 hp, 240 VAC 3-phase starting at $231 list; ½ to 10 hp, 480 VAC 3-phase starting at $382 list; all models are available from stock
Compact AC Drive for High Starting Torque Applications-Model 3G3MX o Open Loop Vector Control supports all general purpose and moderate- to high-performance applications such as mixers, compressors and conveyors. o High starting torque: 200% at 1 Hz allows start of high inertia loads o Side-by-side mounting saves panel space o Micro-surge Voltage Suppression reduces motor burn out, allows use of most general purpose induction motors o Overcurrent and Overvoltage trip suppression reduces nuisance tripping o Built-in PID function eliminates the need for external controller o Restart function allows automatic recovery from momentary power loss o Removable control circuit terminal block saves wiring time o Wide selection of models: ¼ to 3 hp, 240 VAC single phase starting at $370 list; ¼ to 10 hp, 240 VAC 3-phase starting at $311 list;½ to 10 hp, 480 VAC 3-phase starting at $515 list; all models are available from stock
Advanced AC Drive for Excellent Speed and Torque Regulation-3G3RX o Open- and Closed-Loop Vector Control deliver precise speed and torque regulation for high performance applications such as extruders, winders, and packaging machines. o High starting torque: 200% at 0.3 Hz (Closed loop) allows zero speed load holding o Combine AC drive with an encoder for feedback to perform low precision positioning applications. o Automatic Energy Saving Function significantly reduces energy usage on constant speed applications o Micro-surge Voltage Suppression reduces motor burn out, allows use of most general purpose induction motors o Overcurrent and Overvoltage trip suppression reduces nuisance tripping o Restart Function allows automatic recovery from momentary power loss o Built-in radio noise filter lowers noise impact on other drives and equipment. o Wide range of models: 7.5 to 75 hp, 240 VAC 3-phase starting at $1,805 list; 7.5 to 75 hp, 480 VAC 3-phase starting at $1,908 list; the 480 VAC 3-phase models are available from stock
