Reliable
Durability is at the core of Commander S design, guaranteeing performance throughout its whole lifetime.

Cost Effective
Equipped with unique features designed to save you time, energy, and money.

Flow Control Application
Fans, Pumps, and Compressors

• Improved energy efficiency during periods of low demand.
• PID functionality makes advanced control easy and efficient without the need of an external controller.
• Easily avoid equipment resonant frequencies and reduce high vibration levels using the skip frequency.
• Catch an already spinning motor to reduce start-up time and increase productivity.
• Motor thermal protection prevents overheating of the motor during operation.
• Fire mode maximizes availability of a building’s smoke extraction system in the event of a fire. Once activated, the drive will run until failure.

Moving Applications
Conveyors, Treadmills, Automatic Doors & Barriers

• Reliable speed control with onboard communications.
• S-ramp acceleration / deceleration profiling provides smooth speed transitions minimizing machine jerk.
• Linear V to F with a controllable boost to get the machine running.
• Drive overload capacity up to 150% for rapid acceleration or load changes.
• DC braking with stop indication used to stop the motor quickly.

Processing Applications
Mixers, Crushers, Agitators, Centrifuges, Kneaders, Spinning & Braiding Machines for Textile

• Ease of integration to external PLC or other management systems with on board communications.
• Stability optimizer for improved motor control.
• Resistance compensation for excellent torque performance.
• Built-in EMC filter effectively reduces electromagnetic interference.
