Product Information

Product Family: i500 | Series: i550

The Lenze I5DAE230F10010000S is a 3.0 kW (4.0 hp) frequency inverter belonging to the i550 cabinet series within the Lenze i500 product family. Designed for control cabinets in industrial automation, this 3-phase AC drive operates across an input supply voltage range of 190 V to 264 V AC and delivers a rated output current of 12 A at a 4 kHz switching frequency. Featuring a compact IP20 enclosure with an integrated RFI filter, the unit supports multiple motor control modes including V/f characteristic control, Sensorless Vector Control (SLVC), and Sensorless Synchronous Motor Control (SL-PSM) across an output frequency range of 0 to 599 Hz. Built-in Safe Torque Off (STO) functional safety rated to SIL 3 and PL e allows safety circuits to be implemented directly without secondary main contactors.

System connectivity and commissioning are structured for efficiency in production environments. Onboard fieldbus interfaces support CANopen and Modbus RTU communication directly, complemented by pluggable spring-clamp control terminals featuring 5 digital inputs, 1 digital output, 2 analog inputs, and 1 analog output. Placing a spare unit into service is straightforward thanks to a pluggable parameter memory module that allows full parameter sets to be moved from an existing drive to a replacement without needing software tools or auxiliary power. System customization can be performed using Lenze EASY Starter commissioning software, plug-in keypads, WLAN modules, or optional snap-on network extension cards for PROFINET and EtherNet/IP. ABC Industrial Parts supplies tested replacement units to support rapid equipment maintenance.

Operational status and diagnostic tracking are indicated directly on the drive front via dedicated LED indicators for ready state, fault status, and fieldbus communication. Technicians can access detailed diagnostic records by reviewing parameter 0x2000 for the internal error code history log or connecting via Micro-USB to EASY Starter software. When encountering unrecoverable electronic faults such as internal hardware failure code 0x6100, internal component servicing is not feasible on-site, making an exchange unit from ABC Industrial Parts the most reliable solution to resume machine operating cycles.

Programming and Configuration

Parameterization of the Lenze I5DAE230F10010000S frequency inverter is designed for quick deployment and servicing. Drive parameters can be configured using Lenze EASY Starter commissioning software connected via the Micro-USB port, an optional plug-in Keypad module (I5MADK0000000S), or an optional WLAN module (I5MADW0000000S) for wireless terminal access. Motor control modes can be switched depending on the dynamic demands of the application, including V/f characteristic curves, Sensorless Vector Control (SLVC) for induction motors, and Sensorless Control for Synchronous Motors (SL-PSM).

A key maintenance capability of the i550 inverter is its pluggable memory module. All operational parameters, motor profiles, fieldbus settings, and I/O configurations are stored on this removable chip. When replacing a damaged or faulty unit, maintenance personnel can extract the memory module from the original drive and insert it into the replacement drive. This allows complete parameter transfer instantly without powering up the new unit or running software programming tools.

Communication and System Integration

The Lenze I5DAE230F10010000S inverter comes standard with built-in CANopen and Modbus RTU serial fieldbus protocols. These onboard interfaces enable control integration into standardized PLC architectures without adding extra communication hardware. Control signals are routed through pluggable spring-clamp terminals that support 5 digital inputs, 1 digital output, 2 analog inputs, and 1 analog output.

For integration into broader industrial Ethernet or fieldbus environments, the modular design accepts optional plug-in extension modules. Compatible networking options include the PROFINET extension module (I5MADF0000000S) and EtherNet/IP extension module (I5MADF0000001S), as well as modules for EtherCAT, PROFIBUS-DP, and Modbus TCP. This enables flexible integration into decentralized automation systems across packaging machinery, conveyors, pumps, and fans.

Diagnostics and Status Indication

Real-time drive diagnostics are provided on the front panel through clear LED status indicators. The RDY LED displays operational readiness or active inhibit states, while the ERR LED alerts operators to warnings or active trip faults. The CAN / Fieldbus LED provides network status feedback regarding communication states on onboard or optional network interfaces.

For deeper fault investigation, technicians can query parameter 0x2000 using Lenze EASY Starter software to inspect the error history log. Diagnostic sessions can be established through the Micro-USB interface or wirelessly when using the optional WLAN adapter.

Status LED Indicators

LEDColor/StatusMeaning
RDYGreen - Solid / Flashing / OffGreen ON: Drive operational / Ready. Green flashing: Inhibit active or initialization state. Off: No supply voltage or severe internal fault.
ERRRed - Solid / Flashing / OffRed ON: Active fault/error trip. Red flashing: Warning or pending error state. Off: Normal operation without faults.
CAN / Fieldbus LEDVariousIndicates network connectivity and communication status (Run/Error) for built-in or optional fieldbus.

Replacement and Spare Part Considerations

When replacing a Lenze I5DAE230F10010000S cabinet inverter, match the specific part number to ensure identical electrical ratings (3.0 kW, 12 A output, 3-phase 230 V AC supply) and integrated Safe Torque Off (STO SIL 3 / PL e) safety functionality. If the drive utilizes optional communication expansion cards (such as PROFINET or EtherNet/IP) or keypad accessories, transfer those modules to the replacement chassis prior to installation.

To minimize replacement time, transfer the pluggable parameter memory module from the original drive directly into the replacement unit. This transfers all dynamic motor settings, network parameters, and I/O mapping without requiring PC connection via EASY Starter. Verify that terminal wiring is reattached correctly to the spring-clamp control header and that safety circuit connections to the STO terminals are firmly seated before reconnecting main power.
