ODE-3-120043-301A

The Optidrive E3 from Invertek is a general purpose sensorless vector drive that is great for most motor types.

E3 series, 3 phase rated drives (with the exception of Size 4 IP66/NEMA 4X models) can be derated by 50% for use in single phase power applications. Please see more information under 'Documents'.

Invertek offers single phase input drives up to 10 hp, these drives are not derated.

• This is the most popular, general purpose drive from Invertek
• Available from 0.5 to 50hp
• Single and 3 phase input, 110 to 480V models
  • Single phase input models available up to 10hp!
• Choose from IP20 or IP66/NEMA 4X models
• Switch between Industrial or Pump & Fan modes
• Simple set up – just 14 basic parameters and functions
• Includes models for single phase motors
• Can be used with all motor types; induction, AC permanent magnet, brushless DC, line start PM, synchronous reluctance
• Internal Category C1 EMC filter
• 2 year warranty

IP20 (part #'s ending in 2):

• Available up to 50hp, no disconnect switch
• Indoor rated
• 3 phase models can be derated by 50% for use in single phase power applications

IP66/NEMA 4X (part #'s ending in A or B):

• Ending in B is Outdoor, with disconnect switch
• Ending in A is Outdoor, no disconnect switch
• Outdoor rated, dust-tight and washdown ready!
• Please note: For IP66/NEMA 4X three phase input models, chassis size 4 is not capable of being derated for use in applications supplying single phase power to these units.
  • Size 4 chassis use film capacitors which prohibit single phase operation.

Single Phase Input/Output:

• Available from 0.5 to 1,5hp
• For use on permanent split capacitor (PSC) or shaded pole induction motors
• These drives end in -01
