Mitsubishi launches new performance inverters

Mitsubishi Electric has extended its inverter portfolio with a 690V version of its FR-A800 series inverters.

The new models of the FRA870 690V line cover power outputs up to 1.5 MW. Yet, this increased power is delivered in a slim package that starts at just 380mm wide, offering significant space saving potential.

Furthermore, the FRA870 line combines this high-power performance with features which enhance functionality, including a built-in brake chopper on all power sizes up to 200 kW to shorten deceleration times.

Numerous applications in areas such as the water industry, food and beverage and machine building are characterised by high power requirements.

The flow demands of larger pumping applications in the water industry, for example, means motors are often oversized. The FRA870 models optimise such applications, while incorporating features to reduce energy consumption and improve system reliability.

In the food and beverage industry, where the likes of refrigeration compressors require inverters with greater power capability, but where space within the control room is at a premium, the slim design of the FR-A870 is a benefit.
