FR-F740-00620-EC

What type of device is this?

It is an inverter drive from Mitsubishi’s FR-F700 Series, designed to control the speed and operation of AC motors. The FR-F740-00620-EC is commonly used where variable-speed control is needed for industrial fans, pumps and HVAC-related equipment.

What motor power is this drive rated for?

This drive is rated for a 30 kW motor, making it suitable for medium-power industrial motor control applications such as ventilation systems, extraction fans, water handling equipment and process pumps.

What supply voltage does this inverter use?

The unit is intended for three-phase 400 V class installations. Its typical operating range is suited to 400 to 415 V AC systems, with FR-F700 Series data also indicating use across a wider 380 to 500 V three-phase class range.

What is the rated output current?

The rated output current is 62 A under the standard low-overload rating. A 57 A rating may also apply under the higher-overload operating condition, depending on the selected duty profile and installation requirements.

Is this drive suitable for pump and fan applications?

Yes. The FR-F700 Series was developed with energy-saving pump and fan control in mind. It is well suited to applications such as HVAC fans, air extraction, water pumps, drainage systems and other variable-torque loads.

What enclosure protection rating does it have?

This model is listed with an IP20 protection rating. It is intended for appropriate panel or cabinet mounting where the surrounding environment is controlled and the unit is protected from unsuitable exposure.

What are the physical dimensions of the drive?

The drive measures approximately 250 mm wide, 400 mm high and 190 mm deep. These dimensions are useful when checking panel space, mounting clearances and replacement fit.

How much does the unit weigh?

The unit weighs approximately 15 kg. This should be considered when planning mounting arrangements and handling within a control panel.

What frequency range can it provide?

The FR-F700 Series specification indicates an output frequency range of approximately 0.2 to 590 Hz, allowing flexible speed control for compatible AC motor applications.

What control methods are associated with this drive series?

The drive series provides inverter control methods suited to industrial motor operation, including V/F control and energy-efficient control features intended to optimise operation in pump and fan applications.

Can it help reduce energy use?

Yes. By varying motor speed to match the actual load demand, this inverter can reduce wasted energy in applications such as fans and pumps, particularly where the motor does not need to run continuously at full speed.

What operator interface is used on this series?

The FR-F700 Series uses the FR-DU07 control unit, which provides parameter access, monitoring and alarm display functions through a front-mounted operator panel.

Which communication options are relevant to this drive family?

The drive family is associated with serial communication capability and optional industrial network integration, including options for networks such as RS-485, Modbus RTU, Profibus/DP, DeviceNet, CC-Link and LonWorks, depending on the installed option hardware.

Is it suitable for multi-motor pump systems?

Yes. The FR-F700 Series includes functions intended for pump system control, including multi-motor operation where one motor can be inverter-controlled while additional motors are staged as demand changes.

What overload ratings are associated with this model size?

For the 30 kW rating, the series data identifies operation at 62 A for the 120% overload class and 57 A for the 150% overload class. The applicable rating depends on the required duty and motor load profile.

What kind of applications should be checked before selecting this drive?

Key checks include motor power, supply voltage, load type, required current, enclosure environment, braking requirements, network requirements and available panel space. The FR-F740-00620-EC is best matched to 30 kW variable-speed applications in the 400 V class.
