Yaskawa’s U1000 Product Line Expansion Now Includes Type 1 and Type 3R Configured Panels

DCS Yaskawa U1000 Product Line Now Includes Type 1 and Type 3 Enclosures 1 400

January 31, 2022

 

The U1000 Industrial Configured Drive package provides all the low harmonic and regenerative benefits of a U1000 in a UL Type 1 or UL Type 3R enclosure, with space for several commonly used options, such as reactors, circuit breakers, etc. This configured package is rugged and reliable, specifically designed for tough industrial environments.

The U1000 is a compact, total all-in-one solution for ultra-low harmonics and/or full regeneration and is the ultimate choice for power quality and energy savings. Additionally, the U1000 delivers high flexibility and motor control performance to meet a wide variety of application requirements.

A collection of PC software support tools can be used for uploading and downloading drive parameters, calculating energy savings, creating application programs by arranging function block icons, as a programming simulator, or identifying how to reduce your operating costs and meet the harmonics compliance requirements.

DriveWizard® Industrial (Desktop Version)
This support tool is a Windows-based PC program designed to make commissioning and troubleshooting of Yaskawa drives as simple as possible.

DriveWorksEZ
This software tool provides the means to create custom logic and mathematic functionality inside the GA800, U1000 and V1000 drives.

Programming Simulator
This software provides a realistic simulation of the programming and operation of a U1000 drive.

Harmonics Estimator
This software allows you to estimate harmonics at the Point of Common Coupling (PCC) utilizing the drive to select the proper mitigation solution.

Energy Saving
Controlling your applications with our drives can save you energy and reduce your operating cost. The Energy Savings Industrial software is available at no cost to enable users to accurately forecast the energy savings using VFDs.
