The AC10 IP66 delivers simple yet proficient motor control in day-to-day applications requiring speed or torque control within the power range of 0.4 to 1 kW.

The IP66 enclosure enables its use in both indoor and outdoor applications where harsh conditions may be a concern, such as wash-down areas in food and beverage facilities, and in waste plants or rooftop units.

The AC10 IP66 provides sensorless vector mode, an output frequency of up to 590Hz, three-phase 400V supplies in all five frame sizes, and a full 150 percent overload for one minute.

In addition, the micro drive is designed to cut the time and effort needed to install, set-up and commission using its integrated keypad.
