About

The VACON NXS is the standard-performance member of the VACON NX platform. It shares power hardware, enclosure sizes, keypad and option boards with the higher-specification VACON NXP, but has no closed-loop vector mode, offering U/f and open-loop sensorless vector only, and its range stops at frame FR11 where the NXP continues to FR14.

Ratings run from 0.37 kW at high overload on 230 V to 560 kW at low overload on 690 V, each published twice, at 110 per cent up to 40 °C and 150 per cent up to 50 °C. Frames FR4 to FR9 are wall-mounted, FR10 and FR11 standalone.

The control unit has no fixed I/O: five slots, A to E, take a mix of basic, expander and fieldbus boards, so an input that appears dead may be a card or slot problem rather than a control-board failure. The snap-on cooling fan is the only regularly replaceable component. Danfoss lists the NXS in its active drives range.

Key Features

  • 0.37 kW to 560 kW, at supply voltages from 208 V to 690 V

  • U/f and open-loop sensorless vector control, in wall-mounted frames FR4 to FR9 and standalone FR10 to FR11

  • IP21/UL Type 1 and IP54/UL Type 12 enclosures, with an IP54 retrofit kit for FR4 to FR6

  • No fixed I/O: five slots, A to E, take basic, expander and fieldbus boards that can be added in the field

  • Integrated RFI filters, with EMC levels C1 to C4 selectable through the type code

  • Steady state speed error below 1%

  • Snap-on cooling fan, named as the only regularly replaceable component

This table lists the first 45 models in the range. The kW figure is the motor shaft power at 10 percent overload (low overload duty, 40 degrees C ambient) and the current is the matching rated continuous current IL. Vacon publishes a second, higher overload rating for each unit, which is not listed here. Contact us if your unit is not listed and we will confirm it.
