Yaskawa America: U1000 Industrial Matrix Drives

October 1, 2019

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.

Highlights:

  • Full Regeneration
  • Low Input Distortion Across a Wide Load and Speed Range
  • Facilitate IEEE 519 Compliance
  • Eco-Mode to Achieve Near Across-the-Line THD
  • High Efficiency Design Provides Extra Energy Savings as Compared to Other Low Harmonic Solutions
  • Near Unity True Power Factor at Full Load
  • Integrated Input Fusing Provides 100kA SCCR
  • Compact Design
  • High Reliability with an MTBF of 28 Years
  • Embedded Modbus RTU Communications
  • Removable Terminal Block
  • High Carrier Frequency (Low Motor Noise) Capability
  • 0-400 Hz Output Frequency
  • 120% Overload for 60 Seconds (ND)
  • 150% Overload for 60 Seconds (HD)
  • Multi-language LCD Display with Copy function
  • Start into Spinning Load (Speed Search)
  • Both Induction and Permanent Magnet Motor Control
  • Closed or open loop vector control for outstanding regulation, torque production, and position control capability
  • Continuous Auto-tuning optimizes performance by compensating for changes in motor temperature
  • High Frequency Injection enables high precision open loop control of Interior Permanent Magnet Motors
  • Fast acting current and voltage limiters help achieve continuous drive operation during periods of excessive demand
  • Communication options for all major industrial networks provides high speed control and monitoring, reducing installation cost
  • DriveWizard computer software and Application Sets for easy configuration
  • Embedded Safe Torque Off minimizes downtime for applications requiring occasional intervention (SIL CL3, PLe, Category 3)
  • Embedded function blocks, programmable with DriveWorks EZ, provide additional application flexibility and the opportunity to eliminate separate controllers
  • USB Copy Unit and Keypad configuration storage provide speed and convenience for duplicate configuration of multiple drives
  • Made with RoHS compliant materials
