Standard (IP20) drives are intended for clean environments and can be mounted 3 different ways as follows:
1)In a separate enclosure with heatsink internal. Extra mounting
brackets are not required.
2)In a separate enclosure with heatsink external. Refer to Enclo
3)Mounted without an enclosure. Type 1 Adapters must be
used when mounting the drive without an enclosure.
-
sure Adapters and Kits for drives requiring extra mounting
brackets.
The GA800 offers two separate performance ratings; Heavy Duty and Normal Duty. Heavy Duty is capable of creating more powerful torque,
while Normal Duty allows the drive to operate a larger motor.

Provides 3 high resolution (13-bit signed) analog inputs. These inputs are configurable for
0 - 10 Vdc, -10 Vdc to +10 Vdc, or 4 - 20 mA, and can be combined with the drive’s
standard analog inputs.
Provides an additional 16 digital inputs which can be programmed individually
(multi-function) or used as a binary-coded decimal (BCD) speed reference, configurable as
2, 3, or 4 digit BCD.
Mounts directly to the control terminal block on the drive and allows the use of 120 Vac
control logic circuits to produce multi-function control input signals for the drive. Used for
digital inputs S1 to S8.
Provides 2 signals for remote metering of any two of the drive's "U1" monitors. Additive to
the two standard analog outputs. Signal level: 0 to +/- 10 Vdc (20 kOhm).
Provides 8 additional digital outputs for use in monitoring the status outputs of the drive.
Signal levels: 6 channels PHC (48 Vdc, 50 mA maximum) and 2 channels of Form A (250
Vac at 1 A or less, 30 Vdc at 1 A or less). Shared Common.
This option provides velocity and direction feedback from an encoder. This is primarily used
for motor speed feedback in closed loop flux vector control. A 24 DC buffered output (open
collector) is also included. 32 kHz maximum input frequency.
Provides velocity and direction feedback from an encoder. Primarily used for motor speed

These adapters are for mounting the standard IP20 drives directly to a wall, a machine in a clean environment (Type 1), or inside a Type 1
enclosure with external heatsink. The Type 1 Adapters convert an Open Chassis Drive (IP20) to an enclosed wall-mounted drive (Type 1). The
A1000 to GA800 adapters allow a GA800 to mount where an A1000 was previously mounted.

1. Type 1 Adapters for 4371 and larger are input fuse ready. UL requires Bussman FWH series semiconductor fuses to be installed within the Type 1 Adapter
on these models.
2. Fuses sold individually. A quantity of three are required per drive.

Single Phase Converter
Decreases the regenerative energy of the motor and decrease the deceleration time (Duty cycle of 3%
ED). An installation attachment is required.
Decreases the regenerative energy of the motor and decrease the deceleration time (Duty cycle of 10%
ED). The unit contains a thermal overload relay.
The R1000 regenerative module is used to divert energy generated by the motor back onto the line for
use by other loads. The energy is directed back onto the line by taking DC voltage from the drive running
the motor and converting it into a three-phase AC voltage waveform.
The Single Phase Converter is used in single-phase to three-phase conversion applications to eliminate
drive derating. The Single Phase Converter significantly reduces stresses on the power grid with near
unity power factor and less than 10% iTHD.
Use a DC Bus Reactor on the DC bus terminals of a drive to reduce the effect of line-side transients and input current total harmonic
distortion (THD). Large HP drives include a 3% bus impedance as standard. The DC bus reactor is available loose in a separate Type 1
enclosure.
3% and 5% impedance reactors may be used on either the input or output to reduce the effects of line or load side transients on the drive.
The reactors listed are available loose or in a separate Type 1 enclosure.
