Vector frequency inverters up to 220 kW

September 2001 Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration

LG Industrial Systems, with more than 13 years of experience in the field, is offering its range of vector frequency inverters in South Africa.

The range presently consists of four types, viz IG5, IS5, IS3 and IH3 with a new mini-range scheduled for later in the year. All units offer dual analog inputs and built-in PID control. Sizes range from 0,4 to 220 kW. All LG inverters undergo stringent factory testing prior to release to the market. These tests include G vibration tests, lightning pulse voltage, high frequency interference, humidity exposure and X-ray testing for component internal integrity. The units are also protected against earth-fault input/output miswiring and short-circuit during running on the motor side, features not usually offered by other makes of inverters. These tests and features ensure total reliability in the field.

A comprehensive range of accessories and add-on boards are available for functions such as encoder feedback, Profibus DeviceNet, etc. The inverters are supported nationwide by Anadigi.
