Het item werd toegevoegd aan uw offerteaanvraag
Product Information
The Lenze 13188648 ESMD371X2SFA is a sub-micro frequency inverter from the Lenze smd series, engineered for speed control of three-phase AC induction motors rated up to 0.37 kW (0.5 HP). Operating on a single-phase 230 V AC supply ranging from 180 V to 264 V AC at 48 to 62 Hz, this drive delivers a three-phase 0 to 230 V AC output with a continuous current capacity of 2.4 A at an 8 kHz carrier frequency. Featuring linear and quadratic V/f characteristic control up to an output frequency of 500 Hz, the unit is built in a compact IP20 enclosure suitable for high packing density inside electrical enclosures. An integrated Class A EMC filter suppresses electromagnetic interference, eliminating external filter components across automated packaging machinery, conveyor drives, centrifugal pumps, and ventilation fans.
Control interfacing relies on three programmable digital inputs, one selectable analog input supporting 0 to 10 V DC or 0/4 to 20 mA signals, and one programmable relay output rated for 250 V AC at 3 A. Commissioning and transferring configurations between drives is handled via the front-mounted Electronic Programmable Module (EPM), a removable blue EEPROM memory chip storing all drive parameters. During replacement, maintenance personnel can transfer the EPM chip from a original inverter directly into a spare unit or duplicate settings using an optional handheld EPM programmer. This hardware-based parameter transfer allows instant parameter replication without demanding complex software setups, supported by ABC Industrial Parts for sourcing fully tested replacement units and hardware spares.
System status and operating conditions are displayed on an integrated front keypad featuring a 3-digit LED display that presents output frequency, parameter values, and active error codes. Initial diagnostic checks involve verifying the main AC supply voltage, checking motor wiring integrity, and confirming that the EPM module is seated correctly in its slot. The inverter actively indicates faults ranging from input undervoltage (F03) and motor overload (F04) to EPM read faults (F08). While parameter adjustments and external safety trip wiring can be managed in the field, internal hardware failures such as control board faults (F09) or CPU errors (CF) cannot be serviced on site, making drive replacement or tested exchange units from ABC Industrial Parts the fastest route back to production.

Programming and Configuration
Programming the Lenze ESMD371X2SFA frequency inverter centers on the plug-in Electronic Programmable Module (EPM) located on the front panel. All operational drive parameters, including acceleration ramps (parameter C01) and deceleration ramps (parameter C02), are retained in non-volatile memory on this blue EEPROM chip. Operating parameters can be modified directly using the built-in 3-digit LED keypad display or programmed offline using an optional Lenze handheld EPM programmer.
The drive provides configurable linear and quadratic V/f characteristic curves, adapting motor performance for constant torque applications like material handling conveyors or variable torque loads like centrifugal fans and pumps up to 500 Hz. If drive parameters become corrupted or need to be reset to factory default configuration, setting parameter C02 to 01 restores the factory parameter set stored in the drive.
Communication and System Integration
The Lenze 13188648 ESMD371X2SFA interfaces with automation systems using dedicated physical I/O terminals and option card fieldbus links. Standard control integration includes three programmable digital inputs for start, stop, or external trip commands, alongside one selectable analog input accepting 0 to 10 V DC or 0/4 to 20 mA signals for setpoint speed reference.
System signaling is managed via one programmable digital relay output rated up to 250 V AC at 3 A. When operating with an optional fieldbus communication module or serial connection, the drive monitors link health and generates a communication time-out fault (F10) if the signal connection to the master controller is interrupted.
Diagnostics and Status Indication
Diagnostic tracking for the ESMD371X2SFA drive is delivered through the front keypad 3-digit LED display. The display provides live operational data including output frequency, parameter indexes, and fault codes ranging from F01 through F12 as well as CPU control faults (CF). Technicians can review parameter history logs and inspect terminal logic states directly via monitoring parameters to verify drive response and control input signal levels.
Status LED Indicators
| LED | Color/Status | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| 3-digit LED Display | Red/Green - Active | Displays output frequency, parameter codes, parameter values, or fault error codes (F01–F12, CF) |
Replacement and Spare Part Considerations
When swapping a Lenze 13188648 ESMD371X2SFA frequency inverter, physical installation and electrical rating alignment are critical. Ensure the replacement drive matches the single-phase 230 V AC input specification, 0.37 kW (0.5 HP) output rating, and integrated Class A EMC filter designation. Because complete parameter profiles are stored directly on the blue EPM chip, moving the existing EPM module into the replacement drive transfers all parameters instantly without manual programming.
The Lenze smd series has reached phase-out status, making exact direct-replacement units important for maintaining existing panel layouts and control wiring. For facilities undergoing full equipment modernizations or upgrading control platforms, Lenze recommends migrating to the Lenze i510 or i550 cabinet frequency inverter series as current successor lines.
