Available in two versions - covering the voltage range from 380 to 690 V and the power range from 450 to 710 kW in normal operation - the CFW11 in frame size H can control both squirrel-cage and permanent-magnet motors and is designed for normal and heavy load operation in a wide range of industrial and commercial applications. WEG’s CFW11 drive is easy to configure and operate. Users can configure device parameters simply, either individually or in defined groups for specific applications, and the control panel features a user-friendly navigation and control with programmable buttons. In addition, a guide helps users through programming, helping them save installation and setup times.

“Our CFW11 VSDs are highly versatile and easy to use and are designed to help users across a wide range of industrial and commercial applications operate motors more efficiently according to the latest energy efficiency regulations,” says Marek Lukaszczyk, European & Middle East Marketing Manager at WEG. “The new frame size H version has been introduced to make the CFW11 even more versatile meeting the needs of high power level applications.” Many plug-in extension modules are available for adapting the variable speed drives to users’ needs and are automatically recognised by the device for convenient plug-and-play operation. The standard model also features an integrated micro-PLC, enabling users to program their own applications at any time using the included WLP software for relay logic.
