Yaskawa introduces the U1000 Industrial Matrix Drive, featuring low harmonic distortion and full power regeneration in a space-saving design without the need for additional components. Yaskawa’s Matrix technology employs a system of nine bi-directional switches that convert a three-phase AC input voltage directly into a three phase AC output voltage, eliminating the need for a rectifying circuit and DC smoothing circuit.
The U1000 Matrix Drive features:
• Full regeneration
• Low input distortion across a wide load and speed range
• IEEE-519 compliance (<5% THD)
• Eco-mode to achieve near across-the-line THD
• Near unity power factor
• Integrated input fusing providing 100kA SCCR
• Compact design
The U1000 Industrial Matrix drive is available in these voltage and power ranges:
• 240V Class: 10 – 100 HP Normal Duty (7.5 – 75HP Heavy Duty)
• 480V Class: 7.5 – 350 HP Normal Duty (5 – 300HP Heavy Duty)
