Explosion-Proof Variable Frequency Drive | VT3000-3X-P

Product Overview

The VT3000-3X-P is a specialized variable frequency drive (VFD) designed for low-power industrial applications requiring both precision motor control and explosion-proof protection. As a compact, hazardous-area-rated variant of Danfoss’s VT3000 series, this drive excels in environments where flammable gases, vapors, or dust are present—such as chemical processing plants, oil refineries, and pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities. The VT3000-3X-P delivers reliable speed regulation for smaller AC motors, making it ideal for applications like precision pumps, small conveyors, and ventilation fans in hazardous zones. Its ATEX certification ensures compliance with strict safety standards, while its robust construction withstands harsh conditions, including electrical interference and temperature fluctuations. With a focus on safety, efficiency, and adaptability, the VT3000-3X-P enables precise motor control in high-risk areas without compromising on performance or operational safety.

Key Features and Benefits

The VT3000-3X-P combines the precision of the VT3000 series with specialized explosion-proof design, making it indispensable for hazardous environments. Its 3.7 kW rating targets smaller motors, providing efficient speed control for light to medium-duty applications—from metering pumps in chemical dosing systems to exhaust fans in paint booths—where overspeeding or inefficiency could pose safety risks.

Safety is its defining attribute: the ATEX II 2G certification ensures the drive can operate in Zone 1 and 2 hazardous areas, where flammable gases may be present. Its robust enclosure and internal components are engineered to prevent sparking or excessive heat buildup, eliminating ignition sources and ensuring compliance with global safety regulations. This certification reduces the need for costly secondary enclosures, simplifying installation in high-risk zones.

Energy efficiency remains a core strength, with advanced vector control technology that adjusts motor speed to match load demands, cutting energy consumption by up to 25% compared to fixed-speed systems. For example, in pharmaceutical manufacturing, the VT3000-3X-P can modulate mixer speeds during batch processing, reducing energy use while maintaining precise agitation rates.

Durability is enhanced by an IP54 rating, protecting against dust ingress and water splashes—critical for environments where cleaning or moisture is common. The drive integrates seamlessly with PLCs and SCADA systems via Modbus and Profibus, enabling remote monitoring and control to minimize operator exposure to hazardous areas. Backed by a one-year warranty, the VT3000-3X-P offers a safe, efficient solution for motor control in high-risk industrial settings.
