MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC Changes for the Better
United Kingdom

High performance and high quality new inverter of the highest level

The FR-A series, with its enhanced real sensorless vector control and vector control, meets the needs of all machinery type

Precise, powerful, versatile

Designed for unparalleled drive precision, speed control, simple startup, and versatility, Mitsubishi Electric has developed a new generation of drive technology: the remarkable FR-A800.

Some of the outstanding features are the integrated high level PLC, USB port for programming and parameter copying, an-easy to-read control panel, optimum power usage and energy saving functions, improved system safety, three expansion slots for a range of option and supported network card.

The FR-A800 Series is backwards compatible with the FR-A700 series. Parameters can be easily copied by FR Configurator2. In order to match the former machine response time, the input/output signals of the FR-A800 can be delayed.

Powerful features and intelligent functions

The FR-A800 series has a two channel emergency stop for safe shutdown. This ensures safe operation in compliance with the European Machinery Directive without installation of another contactor. The FR-A800 thus conforms to the EN ISO13849-1/PLe cat. 3, EN 61508-1/-2/-3:2010(SIL3) and EN 61800-5-2 SIL3 standards.

The operation panel with the one touch Digital Dial allows direct access to all important parameters. The FR-A800 series also allows easy connection of a Mitsubishi Electric graphical operation terminal (GOT DRIVE). Communication parameters for the HMI connection are automatically set as a batch.

The drive’s built-in EMC filter ensures full compliance with European EMC Directive standards (EN 61800-3 2nd environment category C3), so separate certification is not required for the drive.

Take advantage of the energy saving function, that suits your application. The impressive energy savings can be displayed on the energy monitor.

The cooling fans and the built-in capacitors have an estimated lifespan of 10 years. By using the ON/OFF control function, the service life of the fans can be even further extended.

Various network compatibility

The drive can be controlled and monitored by a controller via network. For the major network protocols such as CC-Link IE Field, CC-Link IE Field Basic, Modbus TCP, CC-Link, Profibus DP/DPV1, Profinet/Ether- Net IP/EtherCat and SSCNETIII/H as well as DeviceNet™ and LONWORKS communication options are available. RS485 communication (Mitsubishi Electric drive protocol, Modbus-RTU protocol) is supported as option.
