VLT 2060

The VLT 2060 frequency converter, manufactured by Danfoss and a member of the VLT 2000 Frequency Converters series, delivers precise motor control for a wide range of industrial applications. This unit provides a constant output current of 9.7 A and a constant output power at 415 V of 7.0 kVA, supporting a typical shaft output power of 4.0 kW with a max output current (60 s) of 15.5 A. Built to operate on a mains supply voltage of 3 x 380–415 V ±10% at 50/60 Hz, the converter maintains a high efficiency at rated load of >0.97 under full load conditions. The device supports an output frequency range of 0–120 or 0–500 Hz, and its rated motor voltage options (380/400/415/440/460 V) and rated motor frequency (50/60/87/100 Hz) ensure broad compatibility with standard motors. Encased in a robust IP20 enclosure rating, this compact unit is optimized for panel mounting in control cabinets.

Performance efficiency is achieved through Danfoss’ advanced Voltage Vector Control (VVC) principle, which minimizes low switching loss by maintaining a very short switching interval and a high switching frequency. The converter’s six semiconductors operate alternately in pairs, reducing thermal stress and extending component life. During open-loop operation, the motor current supplied serves as feedback for basic speed control, while closed-loop operation incorporates direct process feedback for enhanced torque accuracy. Protection features include a max input current of 9.1 A and support for max prefuses of 20 A, safeguarding both the converter and the connected motor from electrical faults. Additionally, the unit accommodates a max motor cable length of 40 m standard or 300 m unscreened, enabling flexible system layouts without signal degradation.

Engineered for reliable continuous operation in demanding environments, the VLT 2060 operates within an ambient temperature range of 0 to +40 °C at full load and meets industrial standards for durability and safety. Its IP20 design protects against solid objects while permitting efficient heat dissipation in enclosed cabinets. Integration into existing automation architectures is streamlined through standard communication interfaces and compatibility with the keyword MS2N07-C1BRA-CMVG0-NNNNN-NN configuration. The compact footprint and straightforward parameter setup reduce commissioning time and simplify maintenance cycles. Ideal for pumps, fans, compressors, and conveyor systems, the VLT 2060 offers a dependable, high-efficiency solution for Industrial Automation deployments.
