SEW MC07B0055-5A3-4-00 AC Drive | 5.5kW 380-500V
Product Introduction
The SEW MC07B0055-5A3-4-00 is a powerful frequency inverter built for industrial motor speed control. As a member of the MOVITRAC® B family, this 5.5kW unit balances compact construction with high output capability. The drive accepts three-phase 380-500VAC input and supplies a rated output current of 12.5A. Its output frequency range reaches 180Hz, supporting a broad spectrum of motor applications. Furthermore, the IP20 enclosure allows direct installation inside control cabinets. Typical uses include conveyors, mixers, pumps, and general machinery drives.
Technical Specifications
The MC07B0055-5A3-4-00 delivers stable performance across its rated voltage band. Input current is rated at 11.3A for three-phase 380-500V supply, with ±10% voltage tolerance and ±5% frequency tolerance at 50/60Hz. The output provides 12.5A at 0-380/500V and 0-180Hz. Recommended motor power is 5.5kW (7.5 HP) for standard duty.
The drive supports V/f control for straightforward motor operation. Additionally, current limiting protects the motor during overload conditions. Terminal connections accept standard industrial wire sizes, and the unit includes integrated protection against overcurrent, overvoltage, and overtemperature faults. The size 2S chassis provides generous thermal headroom for continuous operation.
Mechanical and Environmental Parameters
This SEW inverter uses a size 2S chassis with dimensions of 105 × 335 × 238 mm (W × H × D). The unit weighs approximately 5 kg, making it manageable for single-person installation. Natural convection cooling handles standard loads, while the vertical mounting position promotes airflow across the heat sink.
Regarding environmental limits, the drive operates from 0 to 50°C ambient temperature. The IP20 protection class suits clean, dust-controlled cabinet environments. Storage temperature spans -25 to 70°C for transport and warehousing. The unit complies with standard industrial EMC and low-voltage directives.
Installation Guidelines
Correct mounting supports reliable long-term operation. First, choose a vertical position inside the cabinet to encourage natural convection. Next, maintain clearance above and below the unit per SEW recommendations. The MC07B0055-5A3-4-00 mounts directly to the cabinet backplate using its rear fixing points.
Wiring requires attention to terminal assignments. The mains supply connects to L1, L2, and L3, while the motor attaches to U, V, and W. Additionally, shielded motor cables reduce electromagnetic interference in sensitive installations. Finally, verify all parameter settings match the motor nameplate before commissioning the drive.
