The Coca-Cola bottle manufacturer (Wu Han) Co, Ltd in China required a frequency convertor that could be installed in the field, could bear high temperature, and could endure frequent wash-down.
The big global OEM that delivered the machine to the bottle manufacturer chose VLT IP66 drives from Danfoss because these drives fulfilled the company’s requirements, it said.
VLT IP66 drives can also withstands ambient temperatures up to 50o C, and offer a warranty period of 24 months.
Most of the drives supplied are VLT Automation Drive series in the power range from 7.5 kW to 22 kW. Generally, two to five units are used in each machine. Danfoss’ global presence also supported the decision to choose Danfoss Drives.
Both the end-user and the OEM are familiar with VLT drives and benefit from the capability to control the application with the drive mounted close to the application.
