VFD45AMS43ANSAA Delta 460V 3-Phase Vector Control Drive
Product Introduction
The Delta VFD45AMS43ANSAA represents the advanced MS300 series of compact vector control drives. Specifically, this model delivers 30 HP (22 kW) of motor power and operates on a 460V three-phase input. Meanwhile, it offers dual rating modes: 45 Amps for heavy-duty applications and 49 Amps for normal-duty operation.
Engineered for demanding industrial environments, this drive supports both induction motors (IM) and permanent magnet motors (PM). Consequently, it provides high starting torque and fast response to load impacts. Furthermore, the VFD45AMS43ANSAA includes a built-in brake chopper, enhancing its braking capability for rapid deceleration.
The MS300 series prioritizes space efficiency with a compact F1 frame design. In addition, it allows side-by-side installation without derating, saving valuable panel space. Moreover, this model features a removable 5-digit LED keypad for remote operation, adding flexibility to system layouts.

Besides, its compact F1 frame allows for side-by-side mounting, maximizing panel density. Meanwhile, the drive includes Deceleration Energy Backup (DEB) functionality to prevent DC bus undervoltage during sudden power dips.
Installation and Mounting Guide
Proper installation of the VFD45AMS43ANSAA ensures optimal performance and longevity. Follow these guidelines for best results:
Mounting Orientation : Install the drive vertically on a flat, non-flammable surface. Use all four mounting holes for secure attachment.
Clearance Requirements : Maintain at least 100 mm above and below for airflow. Additionally, side clearance can be minimal due to the side-by-side design.
Environmental Conditions : Avoid locations with excessive dust, moisture, or corrosive gases. Otherwise, the drive's service life may be compromised.
Cable Routing : Use shielded cables for control wiring. Meanwhile, separate power input and motor output cables to reduce EMI effects.
Grounding : Connect the ground terminal securely to the system earth ground. Furthermore, use a low-impedance ground path for safety.
Always disconnect input power before starting installation. Moreover, verify that the motor nameplate matches the drive's rated voltage and current.
