Description

The MW500 is a high-performance variable speed drive for controlling three-phase induction motors with dedicated functions and high degree of protection IP66 / NEMA4X that allow their use in applications requiring a high level of precision and robustness. In addition, the MW500 has excellent flexibility because it can be installed directly on the wall or mounted on the motor, reducing costs of wiring and panels.

Product Documentation

Refer to the MW500 user manual for detailed product information, installation requirements, parameter descriptions, and electrical specifications.

Ladder Availability

The Ladder tool is not available for MW500 firmware below v3.00 in WPS. If Ladder programming is required, use the WLP application.

Versatile

The MW500 is an inverter with IP66 rating and special mounting characteristics for environments that require high degree of protection. It offers VVW vector or V/F scalar control and can be vertically mounted in electrical panels or mounting surface.

Characteristics

• Single phase power supply (200-240 V) or three-phase power supply (380-480 V);
• Rated current: up to 16 A (10 cv);
• VVW vector or V/F scalar control;
• SoftPLC - adds the functionalities of a PLC to the MW500;
• Economy of space and electrical installation;
• Low harmonic distortion
• Aluminum frame;
• NEMA 4X/IP66 protection degree;
• It can be coupled to the WEG W22 motor line, or mounted in electric panels or surfaces;
• Dedicated potentiometer for speed reference;
• Dedicated PTC;
• Operating temperature: 0º to 40ºC;
• Switch-disconnector (optional);
• Operation indicator LED;
• Compatible with the main accessories of the CFW500 family;
• Standard RS485 network;

Mounting

Directly to the motor or in the vertical position, directly on the wall (wall mounting), or inside electrical panels.
