Key Benefits

Optimum excitation control for reducing energy consumption – We have adopted and perfected optimum excitation control to ensure that the energy-saving effects are realized during constant torque as well as during the motor’s acceleration/deceleration operations.

Ethernet Communications as Standard – Communicate with Modbus TCP/IP or CC-Link IE Field Basic communications networks at a speed of 100Mbps without the need for an extra option card.

Automatic IP Address Detection – Automatically detect the IP address of all connected drives, quickly enabling connection and programming using FR-Configurator2 software.

Remote Operation – Communicate with a drive remotely for commissioning, monitoring or troubleshooting anytime from anywhere.

CC-Link IE Field Network Basic – Fast and dependable connection to Mitsubishi Electric PLCs, servos, and robots through the CC-Link IE Field basic system for a complete factory solution.

Multiple Protocol Capability – Network option cards offer connection to other drive based networks and a higher level information system.

Drive to Drive Communications – Utilize the internal PLC to communicate without a master PLC controller allowing the drives to work together as a team.
Reduced Cost – Standard Ethernet connectivity without add-on modules.

Intelligent Energy Optimization

As a result of the enhanced optimum excitation control in Mitsubishi Electric variable frequency drives, over current is no longer generated during steep acceleration/deceleration even without limiting the amount of voltage compensation during these operations which ultimately provides improved energy savings.

Seamless Network Communication

SLMP is a common communication protocol for Mitsubishi Electric factory automation products such as PLCs and GOTs. Adding the FR-A800 Series VFD with built-in Ethernet communication means users will not need to worry about network layering or communication boundaries. The ability to standardize the communication networks via Ethernet will allow the same system infrastructures to be used with different Ethernet based protocols. This is a highly cost-efficient network solution simplifying wiring and network data handling.
