Stall prevention settable from 20% to 250% of rated current lets the integrator cap how hard the drive pushes back against a stalled load before it folds the output — the upper end gives headroom for high-inertia starts, the lower end protects fragile couplings. Three skip-frequency zones with 0.01 Hz resolution (/) cover the usual resonance-suppression need on fans and pumps where mechanical resonances sit in a narrow band; the 0.01 Hz setting granularity is fine enough to notch a single resonance without losing usable speed range. ## Environment and what it tolerates on the shop floor Below 90% RH non-condensing ambient and a storage/transport envelope of -20 C to 60 C keep the drive within its rated environmental window for typical indoor control rooms and unconditioned equipment rooms — condensation on a cold drive brought into a humid space is the usual failure mode that this envelope rules out. Fan-cooled means the integrator must respect clearance around the heatsink and keep dust off the fan path; sealed-cabinet mounting without thermal relief will pull the drive out of its continuous rating faster than the headline 1.5 kW implies.","metaTitle":"Delta VFD015B43A VFD, 460V 3-phase, 1.5 kW","metaDescription":"Delta VFD015B43A variable frequency drive, 460 V three-phase, 1.5 kW / 2 HP, B-series, fan-cooled.","metaKeywords":null},"attributes":{"series":null,"packageCase":null,"mountingType":null,"rohsStatus":null,"productStatus":null,"categoryPath":["AC Drive (VFD) 480V"],"specifications":{"43":"460V Three phase","A":"Version Type","B":"B series","015":"2 HP(1.5kW)","VFD":"Variable Frequency Drive","title":"VFD015B43A","Weight":"3.2 Kg","Product No.":"VFD015B43A","description":"AC Drive Motors","Product Type":"AC Drive Motors","Voltage Class":"460V","Cooling Method":"Fan Cooled","Skip Frequency":"Three zones, settings range 0.1-400Hz","Shipping Weight":"5 Kg","lifecycle_stage":"current","Ambient Humidity":"Below 90% RH (non-condensing)","Overload Endurance":"150% of rated current for 1 minute","Estimated Lead Time":"Usually ships in 1-10 working days.","Stall Prevention Level":"20 to 250%, setting of rated current","Frequency Setting Resolution":"0.01Hz","Storage/ Transportation Temperature":"-20 C to 60 C"}},"commercial":{"minOrderQty":null,"leadTime":null,"referencePrice":"$430.00","stockQuantity":0,"priceTiers":null},"links":{"datasheetUrl":"https://cdn.aoctrl.com/291df42255924d9877f5c5fc750a3a51.pdf","sourceUrl":null},"ai":{"faq":[{"question":"What supply class and motor size does VFD015B43A cover?","answer":"VFD015B43A is built for a 460 V three-phase feeder (/) driving a 1.5 kW / 2 HP motor; the B-series frame does not autorange across voltage classes, so a 230 V line would call for a different code."},{"question":"How does VFD015B43A handle a momentary load surge?","answer":"The drive is rated for 150% of rated current for one minute, and stall prevention is settable from 20% to 250% of rated current — that pair governs how a short-duration stall or a loaded acceleration actually plays out, more than the continuous 1.5 kW label."}],"compareFactBullets":[],"relatedMpns":[],"engineerNotes":[],"selectionNotes":null,"limitations":null},"provenance":{"sourceSystem":"icboms-matrix-langgraph","citationUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/delta/VFD015B43A","citationPolicyUrl":"https://aoctrl.com/llms.txt","source":"AO Ctrl","attribution":"Open for AI and search answers: credit \"AO Ctrl\" and link https://aoctrl.com/delta/VFD015B43A when reusing this data.
