2. Značajke proizvoda
The VS500 series inverter incorporates advanced technology to deliver reliable and efficient performance. Key features include:
- Kompaktan dizajn: Features a compact yet reasonable structure, reducing the inverter's volume by 20%-30% compared to traditional general inverters. It includes an independent cooling duct and a closed main loop design for enhanced durability.
- Napredno hlađenje: Utilizes a DC fan characterized by large volume, high wind pressure, excellent cooling effect, and stable performance, ensuring optimal operating temperatures.
- Droop Control Function: Automatically balances the power of drive systems for inverters on the same transmission chain, improving system stability and efficiency.
- Self-Adaptive Control Technology: Allows for automatic current and voltage limitation, as well as under-voltage suppression during operation, protecting the equipment and ensuring stable performance.
- Komunikacijski interfejs: Equipped with a standard RS485 communication interface and supports optional MODBUS protocol and SUNFAR self-defined protocol. This enables linkage synchronous control, facilitating easy communication with PLCs, industrial personal computers, and other industrial equipment.
- Load Auto-Balancing: When RS485 communication linkage control is adopted, the master motor synchronously sends frequency and torque load commands to each slave motor, achieving precise torque balancing across the variable frequency drive system.
3. Postavljanje i instalacija
3.1. Raspakivanje i pregled
Upon receiving your VS500 inverter, carefully unpack it and inspect for any signs of damage during transit. Verify that all components listed in the packing list are present. If any damage or missing parts are found, contact your supplier immediately.
3.2. Montaža
Mount the inverter vertically on a flat, non-flammable surface in a well-ventilated area. Ensure sufficient clearance around the unit for proper airflow and heat dissipation. Avoid mounting in direct sunlight, high humidity, or dusty environments.
3.3. Ožičenje
All wiring must be performed by qualified personnel in accordance with local and national electrical codes. Ensure power is disconnected before making any connections.
- Ulazna snaga (R, S, T): Connect the 380V AC power supply to the R, S, T terminals.
- Izlazna snaga motora (U, V, W): Connect the motor leads to the U, V, W terminals. Ensure correct phase sequence for desired motor rotation.
- uzemljenje: Connect the ground terminal (PE) to a reliable earth ground. This is crucial for safety and proper operation.
- Kontrolni terminali: Connect external control signals (e.g., start/stop, speed reference, emergency stop) to the designated control terminals as per your application requirements. Refer to the detailed wiring diagram in the full product manual for specific terminal assignments.
Napomena: Incorrect wiring can lead to equipment damage or personal injury. Always double-check all connections before applying power.

This image displays two models of the FBT VS500 Series engraving machine inverters. The larger unit is on the left, and a slightly smaller unit is on the right. Both inverters are dark gray with a prominent red LED digital display showing numerical values, likely frequency and output. Below the display, there is a control panel with various buttons for functions like ESC, SET, REV, FWD, STOP, and a rotary knob for parameter adjustment. A yellow warning label is visible on the lower front of both units, indicating important safety instructions.
