Fact Sheet
VLT® Leakage Current Monitor Module
RCMB20 and RCMB35
The Leakage Current Monitoring Module is
speci cally adapted to VLT® frequency converters
and comes as a pre-con gured connection kit,
eliminating the need for con guration of
monitoring parameters.
Danfoss introduces a drive
integrated Leakage Current Monitor
Module that detects insulation
faults and unwanted leakage
currents. Specially adapted to the
VLT® drive, the module monitors the
entire drive system, including lter,
frequency converter, motor and
motor cable.
The module has been developed in
cooperation with Bender, one of the
world’s leading specialists within
insulation monitoring. The module is
CE certifi ed and UL listed.
Increases plant safety
The module reliably detects system
errors in IT and TN grids. Not only does
this guarantee the avoidance of
sudden shutdowns due to failures, it
also facilitates early detection of faults
in the system setup.
In order to ensure safe and reliable
monitoring, the module functions
independently of the drive system and
only shares the power supply with the
drive. To provide additional protection
the module can also be confi gured to
monitor entire drive groups.
Easy operation
One of the main benefi ts of the
completely preconfi gured module is
that it is fast and easy to install, due to
the fact that it is not necessary to set
additional parameters.
The module is especially suited for
reliable operation in IT or TN grids,
which are common in the chemical,
raw commodities and marine
industries, where it can help prevent
sudden production breakdowns.
Protect
drive systems
with a comprehensive
monitoring solution that
protects drive units, filters,
motor cables and motors
from insulation faults and
unwanted leakage currents.

Reliable system protection
Versatile
Adapted to VLT® drives
Compact
Pre-confi gured installation kit.
Can optionally be powered from the frequency converter (no external 24 V necessary).
CE certifi ed and UL listed Can be used all over the world
provides early detection of serious
damage or danger and avoids production
stops and accidents.
The module monitors itself and functions
independently of the drive. It monitors
single or multiple drives and can be used
to monitor single or multiple drives.
Monitors the entire drive system,
including frequency converter, motor
and motor cable.
Can also be used with older VLT drives.
Save space in the panel or cabinet by
mounting the module directly onto the
frequency converter.
Save time and simplify commissioning.

Comprehensive system
protection
The Leakage Current Monitor Module
for VLT® frequency converters provides
a comprehensive protection system
that contributes both to increased
operational safety and fi re protection.
In addition to monitoring typical
industrial applications the module is
also suitable for use in food & beverage,
water/wastewater and building
automation applications.
