Mitsubishi Electric FR-D800 series inverters are designed to deliver better performance, easy operation and improved energy efficiency for a wide range of industrial applications. Compact and intuitive, the new series has features designed to make selection, installation and operation simpler. With a focus on user-friendliness, the FR-D800 inverters feature a door-style surface cover and integrated wiring to make installation faster and easier. The FR-D800 is up to 37% smaller than its equivalent predecessor, reducing enclosure size requirements, allowing for more flexible mounting and reduced installation costs. A new USB Type-C interface lets users set parameters directly from a PC without powering up the inverter, streamlining setup and maintenance. Parameters can be set without needing to power the inverters main circuit. The inverters can help save energy with advanced synchronous motor control, which reduces power consumption and cuts operating costs. Its high-efficiency motor drive and lower standby power consumption also contribute to a reduced carbon footprint, supporting more sustainable production practices.

The FR-D800 series is suitable for a wide range of applications, from conveyors and pumps to food processing equipment and textile machinery. Some models are suitable for harsh, corrosive environments with circuit board protection meeting IEC 60721-3-3:1994 3C2/3S2 standards. FR-D800 inverters can control induction and permanent magnet (PM) motors, eliminating the need for multiple inverters for different motor types. Built-in support for popular Ethernet protocols including CC-Link IE TSN, Modbus/TCP, and EtherNet/IP ensures seamless integration into existing industrial networks, for easier integration into digital manufacturing and smart production environments. Preventive maintenance functions include lifetime diagnostics for key components like capacitors and fans, helping operators spot potential issues early, especially when using the FR Configurator2 support software. Anomaly detection based on current patterns helps reduce the risk of unexpected downtime, and when a fault does occur, analysis functions solve the problem quickly. Models are designed for different voltage requirements, including single-phase 100V, 200V, and three-phase 400V options.
