Product details

Drive ratings and load matching

The Delta VFD022C43A is a C2000 series AC drive rated for 460 V three-phase input. It carries two duty ratings: heavy duty at 1.5 kW (2 HP) with 5.7 A output current and a 300 Hz max frequency, and normal duty at 2.2 kW (3 HP) with 6.0 A output and a 599 Hz max frequency. The normal-duty figure applies to variable-torque loads (centrifugal pumps, fans) where the drive can exploit the quadratic torque curve to stay within thermal limits.

Carrier frequency and motor cable length

Default carrier frequency is 2 kHz in heavy-duty mode, adjustable up to 6 kHz. Raising the carrier quiets the motor but increases switching losses and derates the output current. For long motor cable runs — over about 50 metres — keep the carrier at the 2 kHz default to reduce reflected-wave stress on the motor windings. The normal-duty mode defaults to 8 kHz and can go to 15 kHz, but the same cable-length caution applies.

Production status and sourcing

The VFD022C43A is listed as current production, so it remains a valid BOM line for new builds and spares.

Frequently asked questions

What is the heavy-duty rating for VFD022C43A?

Heavy-duty rating: 1.5 kW (2 HP) with 5.7 A output current, 4.5 kVA capacity, and a max output frequency of 300 Hz. Carrier frequency defaults to 2 kHz.

How does VFD022C43A compare to VFD055C43A?

VFD055C43A is the next step up in the same C2000 frame: heavy duty 4.0 kW (5 HP) at 11 A, normal duty 5.5 kW (7.5 HP) at 12 A. Both share the same 2.6 kg weight and 460 V three-phase input. The VFD022C43A will not directly replace a VFD055C43A without upsizing the motor and supply wiring.

Where can I buy VFD022C43A and get current pricing?
