SMVector drives provide robust features for demanding applications, including four modes of operation – V/Hz, Enhanced V/Hz, Vector Speed, and Torque – plus high starting torque, auto-tuning, advanced low-speed control, and dynamic speed regulation. Designed by Lenze as a universally applicable inverter, the SMVector has an input voltage ranging from 120VAC 1-phase to 600 VAC, 3-phase. The removable EPM (electronic programming module) memory chip allows customers to store operational memory and parameter settings for fast and efficient programming of multiple drives.

Accompanied by a major software upgrade, the new SMVector 40, 50 and 60 HP drives feature sequencer mode operation where up to 16 segments can be set, each at an individual frequency set-point, acceleration/deceleration time, digital output state, and analog input value. Advanced setup parameters include analog input configuration, deceleration override time, voltage midpoint and frequency midpoint V/Hz characteristics.

Plug-in communication modules make the SMVector easily integrated into commonly used industrial networks, including Modbus/RS485, DeviceNet, CANopen, PROFIBUS DP and EtherNet/IP, among others. Programmable digital and analog I/O allow SMVector drives to be configured for application-specific tasks, such as presetting multiple speeds, electronic braking, and motor jogging. The integrated dynamic brake connection requires only an external resistor for fast stopping or deceleration.
