FR-D800 Series Variable Frequency Drive Q & A

+ What types of motors can the FR-D800 Series control?
The FR-D800 is designed to control three-phase induction motors and permanent magnet (PM) motors, making it versatile for a wide range of applications. It supports both constant and variable torque loads and is ideal for fans, pumps, conveyors, and machine tool applications.
 
+ Does the FR-D800 Series include built-in safety features?
Yes. The FR-D800 includes built-in Safe Torque Off (STO) as standard. This feature disables the drive output without cutting power to the entire unit, which enhances safety during maintenance and complies with international safety standards (such as ISO 13849-1 and IEC 61800-5-2).
+ Is the FR-D800 easy to program and set up?
Absolutely. The FR-D800 features a simple, user-friendly interface with built-in LCD display, preset parameter groups, and automatic motor tuning. Users can also program the drive using Mitsubishi's FR Configurator2 software for more advanced configurations and monitoring.
+ What communication protocols are supported?
The FR-D800 supports RS-485 (Modbus RTU) communication as standard. Optional communication cards are available for CC-Link, Ethernet/IP, PROFIBUS, and other protocols, making integration with existing control systems flexible and easy.
 
+ What are the main advantages of choosing the FR-D800 over other VFDs?

The FR-D800 Series offers several key benefits:

  • Compact footprint for easy installation in space-constrained panels
  • Built-in energy-saving functions that automatically optimize motor efficiency
  • Long-life design with advanced diagnostics and maintenance reminders
  • Advanced PID control and auto-tuning for precision applications
  • Wide input voltage range (single-phase 200–240V, 3-phase 200–240V)
