FR-E820S-0080EPA-60

What does this inverter do?

This unit is a compact variable speed inverter designed to control the speed and torque of compatible AC motors. It is suited to applications that need dependable motor control from a single-phase 200-240 V AC supply, while also offering built-in networking and a compact footprint.

What input supply does it require?

It is designed for a single-phase AC input with a rated voltage range of 200-240 V. The permissible input range is 170-264 V, which gives some tolerance for supply variation in practical installations.

What motor size is it intended for?

The inverter is rated for a normal duty motor capacity of 1.5 kW with a rated output current of 8 A. This makes Mitsubishi FR-E820S-0080EPA-60 a good match for many compact conveyor, fan, pump and machinery drive duties within that rating.

Which motor control methods are available?

It supports magnetic flux vector control, PM sensorless vector control, real sensorless vector control and V/F control. This gives flexibility when the application needs straightforward speed control or more refined motor performance.

Can it operate both induction and permanent magnet motors?

Yes. It is suitable for use with both induction motors and PM motors, which can help when standardising across different machine designs or motor types.

What communications are built in?

This model includes two Ethernet ports and built-in support for BACnet/IP, CC-Link IE Field Basic, CC-Link IE TSN, Ethernet/IP and Modbus/TCP. That makes it well suited to installations where the inverter needs to sit directly on an industrial network without adding separate communication hardware.

What onboard inputs and outputs are included?

The unit includes 2 digital inputs, 1 relay output and 2 analogue inputs. It uses spring clamp terminal connections and also has a built-in 4-digit LED display for local indication.

Does it include Safe Torque Off?

Yes. Safe Torque Off (STO) is built in, which can be an important feature in machines where drive shutdown needs to be integrated into the wider control design.

Is there an integrated EMC or radio noise filter?

No, this model does not have an integrated filter. If the installation requires additional noise suppression, compatible external filter options are available for this frame and rating.

Does it include a brake chopper?

Yes. It has a built-in brake chopper rated at 100% ED. However, it is not a regenerative 4Q model, so that distinction should be considered when selecting it for applications with frequent deceleration or overhauling loads.

What is the output frequency range?

The output frequency range is 0.2 to 590 Hz. This gives a wide operating range for applications that need either very low-speed running or higher-speed motor control, subject to the motor and machine limits.

What are the physical dimensions and weight?

The inverter measures 108 mm wide, 128 mm high and 161 mm deep, with a unit weight of 1.4 kg. Its compact size can be helpful where panel space is limited.

What enclosure rating does it have?

It has an IP20 protection class. This means it is intended for installation inside a suitable enclosure or control panel rather than exposed mounting in harsher environments.

What compliance information is available for this model?

The unit is listed as CE, UL/cUL, EAC and UKCA compliant, and it is also RoHS compliant. For many export-oriented or multi-region machine builds, that can simplify component selection.

Can this inverter be expanded with accessories or options?

Yes. The platform is expandable and has compatible options such as additional I/O modules, encoder feedback accessories, external filters, a DC link choke and connection accessories. That allows the core drive to be adapted more closely to the machine requirement.
