the toughest ac drives on the planet!

The Vacon X Series Drives are designed for the REAL world - a world that is
not gentle or forgiving to electronic devices. They have been designed to keep
driving in harsh environments and are built from the ground up to survive hostile
conditions and still be simple to use. They are built to be mounted where the
work is, not hidden in another enclosure or room that adds costs and space.

robust and reliable

The same enclosures that can survive in the harsh
industrial world makes them ideal when cleanliness is
extremely important, such as the Food and Beverage
industry where high pressure washings are needed on
a regular basis. The Vacon X Series drives, through 100
HP, exceed the specifications of their rated UL Type 4X
/ IP66 Indoor and Outdoor rated enclosures, each being
able to withstand high pressure washdown of 1000 PSI
from 12” away. The Vacon X Series drives are also packed
with advanced control and operation features that make
them the best choice for ever ything from simple, stand­alone applications to advanced system-level controls.

simple and flexible

The Vacon X Series drives also boast the easiest
programming and operation in the industry. The

62

bright, clear, backlit display provides an easy to
read and customizable view for operation and
programming. The Vacon X Series keypad has
large, well marked buttons to control all aspects
of the drive operation and programming.

The Vacon X4 has the toughness and features to handle
most industrial jobs with ease. If the application is
more unique, the X5 accepts option boards, has a USB
interface, fully coated PC boards for added protection
and other advanced features such as a real-time-clock.

A tough enclosure, an easy to read display, simple
programming and the confidence of knowing you can
mount the drive almost any where make the Vacon X Series
the only choice for the most demanding environments.

new to vacon x series

230vac single phase input

The VACON X4 and VACON X5 now feature a best in
class, out-of-the-box, single phase 230VAC input
product offering with standard ouput powers of
5HP, 10HP and 15HP (230V 3-Phase AC). These new
offerings provide all the benefits of the VACON X
Series family including the most robust UL Type 4X,
Indoor/Outdoor, rated enclosure with the ease of
use and flexibility you’ve come to know and trust.

new enclosure rating for frame 5

Just when you thought the VACON X Series couldn’t
possibly stand up to any more of a beating, we go ahead
and make the Frame 5 even more robust. From 125HP
through 200HP, the VACON X Series can now be placed
outside in the elements with the new UL Type 3R, Indoor/
Outdoor rating. For the first time, EVERY VACON X
Series can be placed outside in the elements, allowing
for even greater mounting flexibility without having
to spend even one cent more on installation costs.

standard vacon x series features

toughest packaging

The VACON X Series is the toughest drive on the market today.
Featuring an incredibly robust design with (low failure rate), the
VACON X Series can truely be mounted where it is needed the most.

• Thick injected foam and metal covers protect against bumps and

misuse

• Withstands 1,000 PSI washdown from 6 inches away on models
though 30 HP

• Withstands 1000 PSI washdown from 12 inches away on models
through 100HP

• Mounts close to the motor to eliminate long motor lead problems

indoor or outdoor

Each drive in the VACON X Series features a built-in braking resistor
that not only allows the VACON X Series to handle higher inertial

loads out of the box, but allows it to warm itself up in even the coldest

conditions. Add to this the standard UL-approved Outdoor Rating

found on every frame size and you have a one-two punch that just
can’t be beat.

• UL Type 4X / IP66 Indoor and Outdoor rated enclosures through
100 HP

• UL Type 3R / IP55 Indoor and Outdoor rated enclosures for 125
HP and above

• Dynamic Braking resistors included as standard

• ARCTIC Mode maintains safe operating temperature in cold

locations

easy to use

The VACON X Series features a user-friendly keypad which makes

operation simple. The easy-to-read display communicates operational
status information as well as parameter names and settings in a
clear, plain text, format making navigation and programming easier
than ever.

• Simple intuitive programming with color coded buttons

• Multi-language display – no codes to learn

• Two parameter levels eases simple application programming

• Application Macros make set-up a breeze

versatile programming

Not only does the VACON X Series feature a robust and reliable

enclosure, it also brings with it a level of versatility to meet almost

any application requirements. By including features such as Modbus
RTU, a multi-step PLC-like sequencer and plenty of dedicated and
programmable I/O, the VACON X Series helps to reduce the overall

system investment costs.

• Operate from keypad, remote I/O, fieldbus communications or
any combination

• Built-in 9-step PLC functions (25-step with X5)

• Modbus RTU as standard fieldbus communications

advanced vacon x5 features

integrated usb port

The VACON X5 control platform includes a USB port as standard for

functions like parameter saving, firmware updating and using the
built-in data-logger function.

• Parameter Save / Recall

• Save parameter set to USB stick and upload to another drive

• Stored data easily opened with Microsoft Excel

• Ability to define custom file name (numbers or text)

• Easy firmware upgrades using standard USB memory stick

• Collect real time data and event logs

option card support

In an ever changing world, a drive must be ready to support newer
technologies as well as maintain a level of compatibility with

established technology. The VACON X5 easily walks this line through

the addition of support for several communications option cards
that include built-in 115V I/O and an encoder input for high demand
applications.

• DeviceNet, Ethernet IP, Profibus and Modbus TCP option cards
are available to supplement the built in Modbus RTU

• All option cards include five channels of 115VAC control inputs

and offer a shaft mounted encoder interface

• An option card is available with a dedicated encoder interface

real-time clock

By adding a real-time clock to the VACON X5, the information received

from the drive is not only much more useful, but many of the functions
in the drive are further expanded for greater time based control.

• Time and date stamped Fault Information

• Keeper Function — logs time-based data from external or

internal signals

• Data read via serial communication or transferred to USB
Memory Stick

• Control operation based on time-of-day. Separate weekday and

weekend settings available

• Signals an event via text on the display or contact closure,

independent of drive operation

enhanced program sequencer

The VACON X5 features an enhanced 25-step programmable

sequencer that unlocks even more PLC-like capabilities than the

9-step sequencer of the VACON X4. This allows an unprecedented

level of built-in control that helps to reduce investment costs and
increase efficiency.

• Create up to 4 independant groups of steps for ultimate flexibility

• New loop and branch capabilities available

• Real Time Clock — time-of-day (TOD) enable function, allows

programmed operation to specific periods of the day or week

X4: 9-step, PLC-type functionality to control speed, direction and ramp times based on time,
analog input, digital input or pulse count.
X5: 25-step, PLC-type functionality that can control speed, direction and ramps based on time,
analog input,digital input, or pulse input. Conditional branching, addressable outputs and real time
operations possible.

X4: PI Process control available with the use of a customer supplied transducer, either 0-10Vdc,
4-20mA or optical encoder input to the drive.
X5: Process control available with the use of a customer supplied transducer, either 0-10Vdc,
4-20mA or optical encoder input to the drive. Includes an optional sleep mode, activated when the
loop is satisfied.
