NORD DRIVESYSTEMS, a leading provider of drive technology solutions, has announced the extension of the power range for its decentralized frequency inverter, NORDAC ON. Specifically developed to meet the requirements of horizontal conveyor technology in intralogistics and warehousing, the NORDAC ONSK 300P frequency inverters offer advanced features tailored to these industries.
The key highlight of the NORDAC ON series is its integrated Ethernet interface, enabling seamless connectivity and IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) capability. With full pluggability and a compact design, these inverters provide a convenient and space-saving solution for conveyor systems. Now, NORD DRIVESYSTEMS has further enhanced the power range of the NORDAC ON series, allowing for even greater versatility and performance.
The power range extension brings the NORDAC ON to a maximum power output of 2.6 kW, while the NORDAC ON+ offers an extended power range of up to 3 kW. This enhancement enables users to handle a wide range of applications, from smaller systems to larger intralogistics setups, with ease and efficiency.
One of the standout features of the NORDAC ON series is its compatibility with the NORD modular system, ensuring seamless integration with the manufacturer’s motors. The NORDAC ON is specifically designed for use with asynchronous motors, while the NORDAC ON+ is optimized for highly efficient IE5+ synchronous motors. This flexibility allows customers to choose the most suitable motor option for their specific requirements.
The integrated Industrial Ethernet interfaces in both the NORDAC ON and NORDAC ON+ provide enhanced connectivity options. Users can easily configure communication protocols, such as Profinet, EtherNet/IP, or EtherCAT, through simple parameter settings. Firmware updates can also be conveniently implemented via Ethernet, making the NORDAC ON/ON+ inverters ideal for integration into IIoT environments. Additionally, a diagnostic interface, M12 connections for sensors and actuators, and a protocol-based encoder interface further enhance the functionality and reliability of these inverters.
By utilizing the NORDAC ON/ON+ frequency inverters, businesses can significantly reduce wiring efforts compared to centralized frequency inverters, thanks to their space-saving decentralized design. These plug-and-play inverters are suitable for direct motor mounting or wall mounting, providing a cost-effective and efficient solution for intralogistics applications.
Equipped with a powerful PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), the NORDAC ON/ON+ offers functions close to the drive, enabling data processing from connected sensors and actuators. This allows for the initiation of control sequences and seamless communication of drive and application data to the control center, networked components, or cloud storage. With optional extensions such as functional safety features like STO (Safe Torque Off), internal braking resistors, and an integrated brake control, the NORDAC ON series provides enhanced safety and performance options for various applications. Moreover, the NORDAC ON series is designed to withstand extreme temperature conditions, ranging from -30°C to +40°C, making it suitable for deep-freeze applications as well.
NORD DRIVESYSTEMS continues to innovate and expand its product range to meet the evolving needs of the intralogistics and warehousing sectors. The extended power range of the NORDAC ON series brings enhanced capabilities and performance, empowering businesses to optimize their operations and achieve greater efficiency and reliability in their conveyor systems.
