Product Information

Product Family: VLT 2800 | Series: VLT 2800

The Danfoss 195N0031, model code VLT2807PS2B20STR1DBF10A00C0, is a compact 0.75 kW (1.0 HP) frequency inverter within the Danfoss VLT 2800 series. Operating from a single-phase 200-240 V AC supply at 50/60 Hz, this variable frequency drive delivers a continuous output current of 4.0 A and an intermittent peak current of 6.4 A, supporting output frequencies from 0 to 1000 Hz. Built in an IP20 panel-mount enclosure, the inverter utilizes Voltage Vector Control (VVC+) technology alongside standard V/f control to deliver full motor torque at low speeds without requiring external encoder feedback. Factory-equipped options include an integrated dynamic brake chopper for regenerative load control and a built-in Class A1/1B RFI filter to reduce electromagnetic noise in industrial environments.

Field connections feature five digital inputs, two analog inputs configurable for 0-10V DC or 0/4-20mA, one high-speed pulse input up to 67 kHz, one analog output, and one SPDT relay output. Network communication is provided through an onboard Profibus DP interface supporting transmission speeds up to 12 Mbit/s, in addition to standard RS-485 serial connection supporting Modbus RTU. Commissioning a replacement spare drive involves transferring internal drive parameters held in the non-volatile EEPROM storage, which accommodates up to four independent parameter setups. Configuration can be executed via an optional Danfoss LCP operator panel or through Danfoss MCT 10 software. Matching drive settings, fieldbus node addresses, and terminal control configurations ensures proper operation. Support from ABC Industrial Parts can assist maintenance teams with parameter extractions and replacement drive preparation.

Drive operational status and internal monitoring are visible via a 4-digit 7-segment display and front panel LEDs, including yellow WARNING, red ALARM, and green BUS indicators. Real-time diagnostic readouts provide visibility into output current, motor voltage, frequency, DC link bus voltage, and inverter heatsink temperature. In the event of a trip, the drive logs specific alarm numbers into an internal fault buffer, covering conditions such as live zero signal drop, mains phase loss, overvoltage, motor overload, earth faults, and fieldbus timeouts. First-line troubleshooting involves checking input phase supply, motor cable insulation, analog signal loop integrity, and Profibus cabling termination. When internal hardware errors like Switch Mode Fault or Inrush Fault occur, board-level repairs or an exchange replacement from ABC Industrial Parts provide an effective solution to restore production uptime.

Programming and Configuration

Drive configuration for the Danfoss 195N0031 is performed either locally using a plug-in Danfoss LCP Control Panel or remotely via Danfoss MCT 10 PC setup software. Parameters are logically grouped, covering motor setup, ramp times, reference scaling, digital/analog I/O assignment, and communication protocols. An Automatic Motor Adaptation (AMT) function allows the inverter to measure motor stator parameters automatically without rotating the load, optimizing VVC+ control precision.

The internal non-volatile EEPROM memory supports four independent parameter setups, enabling multi-mode machinery operation or quick configuration switching. Setup files created in MCT 10 can be saved to a PC and uploaded directly to replacement drives via serial RS-485 or Profibus links, streamlining spare unit commissioning and ensuring parameter consistency across production lines.

Communication and System Integration

The VLT2807PS2B20STR1DBF10A00C0 includes an integrated high-performance Profibus DP option card capable of communication rates up to 12 Mbit/s. This fieldbus interface allows real-time control, reference speed command transmission, operational status monitoring, and diagnostic retrieval directly from a central Programmable Logic Controller (PLC).

In addition to Profibus DP, an RS-485 serial port is available on the control terminals for standard bus or Modbus RTU communication. Network parameters such as station address, baud rate, and bus monitoring timeout limits are configured in parameter group 500, enabling reliable system integration into building automation, material handling, or packaging control architectures.

Diagnostics and Status Indication

The drive features a 4-digit 7-segment LED display alongside dedicated status LEDs to indicate operating states and active fault conditions. Diagnostic readouts allow technicians to evaluate motor current, output frequency, motor voltage, DC bus voltage, and inverter temperature directly at the drive module.

Detailed fault diagnostics are logged into an internal fault buffer, storing historical trip codes for post-event analysis. Live parameters and fault histories can also be analyzed using Danfoss MCT 10 software over the serial or Profibus communication links.

Replacement and Spare Part Considerations

When replacing a Danfoss 195N0031 drive, verify that the complete model code VLT2807PS2B20STR1DBF10A00C0 matches. This ensures that essential hardware features, including the 0.75 kW power stage, integrated dynamic brake chopper, RFI filter, and internal Profibus DP option card, are present on the spare drive.

Because the Danfoss VLT 2800 series is discontinued by the manufacturer, sourcing an exact replacement unit is essential for maintaining control cabinet layouts and network wiring without requiring panel modifications. For new machinery designs or comprehensive plant modernizations, Danfoss recommends migrating to the VLT Midi Drive FC 280 series.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I transfer parameters when replacing a Danfoss 195N0031 drive?

Parameters stored in non-volatile EEPROM can be backed up and uploaded to a replacement drive using Danfoss MCT 10 setup software via RS-485 or Profibus connections, or manually configured using a Danfoss LCP operator panel. Ensure all active parameter setups (up to four) are copied.

What communication ports are built into model VLT2807PS2B20STR1DBF10A00C0?

This model features an integrated Profibus DP option supporting rates up to 12 Mbit/s alongside an RS-485 serial port supporting Modbus RTU or standard bus protocols.

How does Automatic Motor Adaptation (AMT) work on this inverter?

Automatic Motor Adaptation measures motor stator resistance at standstill to optimize VVC+ vector control settings. After entering motor nameplate values in parameters 102 to 106, running AMT automatically calculates performance values without rotating the motor.

What steps should be taken if Fault 15 (Switch Mode Fault) or Fault 35 (Inrush Fault) occurs?

Fault 15 indicates an internal switch-mode power supply failure, and Fault 35 indicates a pre-charge relay failure. Both represent internal hardware defects that cannot be serviced in the field, requiring board repair or drive replacement.

Is the Danfoss 195N0031 discontinued, and what is the recommended successor line?

Yes, the VLT 2800 series is discontinued. Exact part number 195N0031 replacements are maintained to support existing control systems, while the Danfoss VLT Midi Drive FC 280 series is recommended for new system designs.
