Benefits
Saves Time
Easy to Install and Simple to Operate
Does not require programming
or commissioning
Up and running in less than 10 minutes.
Motors Last Longer
Proprietary CL Software
Provides overload protection,
prevents motor burnout
and eliminates nuisance tripping.
UL approved as electronic overload
protector for motors.
Energy Saving
Uses only the power the application requires
Energy savings is realized by using variable motor speed
vs. constant speed motors.
Economical to Use
Combines Soft Start with Variable Speed
Adjustable Soft Start.
KB Customization for OEM’s
“You get exactly what you need. Nothing more, Nothing less.”
Includes: preset calibration, installing drive options and custom software.
Ready to use out of the box.
GFCI software* allows equipment to operate with Ground Fault Circuit Interruption circuit breakers or outlets.
*With factory programming.

Additional Features
Sensorless Flux Vector Control
Flux Vector Compensation with Static Auto-Tune provides excellent speed regulation
with high torque loads throughout the entire speed range. Auto energy saving at light
loads. Smooth motor torque.
Electronic Inrush Current Limit (EICL™) Protection
Eliminates harmful inrush AC line current during power up.
Ride-Through
Provides smooth recovery to the previous set speed during a momentary power loss.
Holding Torque at Zero Speed
Resists motor shaft rotation when the drive is in “Stop” mode.
Regeneration Protection
Eliminates tripping due to high bus voltage caused by rapid deceleration of high
inertial loads.
Undervoltage and Overvoltage Protection
Shuts down the drive if the AC line input voltage goes above or below
the operating range.
D-800B
Short Circuit Protection
Shuts down the drive if a short circuit occurs at the motor (phase-to-phase).
Basic, Programmable, Trimpot Adjustments
Min. Speed, Max. Speed, Accel, Decel, Current Limit, Slip Comp.
Drive Options
Drive-Link™ Programming Kit
Allows PC programming.
SIVFR Signal Isolator and Run Fault Relay*
Provides isolation between a non-isolated signal source and the drive.
DIVF Modbus Serial Communication Module
Class “A” or “B” (CE) RFI Filter
Installs on drive.
DBVF Dynamic Brake Module
Provides faster braking.
Multi-Speed Board
Provides up to four independently adjustable preset speeds.
KBRK Remote Digital Keypad
Allows remote operation and programming of drive**.
IOVF Input/Output Multi-Function Module
Adds up to 17 points of additional I /O.
*Standard on 460 VAC models.
** OEM applications only.
