Product Information

Product Family: 8200 Series | Series: 8210 Series

The Lenze 00361097, model type 33.8216-E, is a 5.5 kW AC frequency inverter within the Lenze 8200 Series and 8210 product family, designed for variable speed control of standard three-phase AC asynchronous motors. Engineered for control cabinet panel mounting with an IP20 protection rating, this compact drive operates across a three-phase input supply range of 320 V AC to 528 V AC. At nominal 400 V AC, it supplies a rated continuous output current of 13 A, backed by a 150% short-term overload capacity delivering up to 19.5 A for 60 seconds to handle demanding starting loads. The drive provides an adjustable output frequency from 0 Hz to 480 Hz with configurable switching frequencies up to 16 kHz, servicing industrial applications in conveyor speed regulation, material handling, packaging machinery, and ventilation fan control.

Commissioning a replacement unit requires interfacing through integrated control terminals that accommodate analog setpoint inputs, programmable digital inputs for start/stop, direction of rotation, and JOG velocity selection, as well as relay outputs for trip signaling. Network integration is made possible via an option slot supporting fieldbus modules for PROFIBUS-DP, CANopen, INTERBUS, and LECOM protocols, including the 2102IB serial module. Operational settings are stored in non-volatile EEPROM memory and must be backed up and cloned to a replacement unit using either the pluggable Lenze 8201BB operating keypad or Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) software. Expert support from ABC Industrial Parts can assist in verifying parameter backup strategies and hardware option card compatibility when preparing a spare drive for installation.

Operational diagnostic feedback is delivered on the unit through two front LED status indicators: a solid green Ready LED signaling a healthy power supply and operational readiness, and a solid red TRIP LED indicating an active fault condition that disables the inverter output stage. Detailed parameter fault codes and historical event logs are accessible via the 8201BB keypad readout or live status monitoring in Global Drive Control (GDC) software. Common trip conditions include output short circuits (OC1), ground faults (OC2), drive thermal overload (OC5), DC link overvoltage (OU) or undervoltage (LU), heatsink or motor overtemperature (OH, OH4), supply phase failure (LP), and communication loss (CE0). First-line troubleshooting should verify input power quality, motor winding insulation, load dynamics, and parameter limits. For persistent internal faults such as memory errors (EE) or gate drive board failures (H05), unit repair or a pre-tested exchange module from ABC Industrial Parts offers a dependable path to restore operational output.

Programming and Configuration

The Lenze 33.8216-E frequency inverter uses non-volatile EEPROM memory to store all configuration parameters, motor characteristics, ramp settings, and control terminal functions without requiring external battery power. Drive programming and parameter adjustments are performed using either the removable Lenze 8201BB operating keypad module or a PC connected through a serial communication adapter running Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) software.

When replacing a unit, parameter values from the original inverter can be copied directly into the spare drive by utilizing the memory cloning functionality of the 8201BB keypad or through GDC parameter file downloads. If parameter data becomes corrupted or unassigned, performing a factory parameter reset restores default settings, enabling structured re-commissioning of motor data, acceleration and deceleration ramps, and digital I/O assignments.

Communication and System Integration

Integration of the Lenze 00361097 into higher-level machine automation systems is facilitated by an integrated option slot located on the front of the inverter. This slot accepts plug-in communication option cards, allowing direct connectivity to industrial network architectures without external signal gateways.

Supported communication options include PROFIBUS-DP, CANopen, INTERBUS, and Lenze LECOM modules such as the 2102IB serial module. These network adapters allow higher-level PLCs to issue start/stop commands, transmit speed setpoints, and monitor live drive diagnostics while actively supervising fieldbus connection stability.

Diagnostics and Status Indication

Visual operational feedback is provided on the front panel by two LED status indicators. A solid green Ready LED confirms normal internal DC link and auxiliary power supply levels, indicating operational readiness. A solid red TRIP LED signals an active fault condition that has disabled the output power stage.

Comprehensive diagnostic tracking, real-time operating variable displays, and historical error logs are accessible through parameter menus using the 8201BB keypad or live software monitoring in Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC). These tools allow maintenance technicians to isolate external wiring errors, electrical supply issues, or thermal conditions quickly.

Replacement and Spare Part Considerations

Replacing an original Lenze 00361097 inverter with a direct spare unit preserves cabinet layout and power panel dimensions without requiring panel mechanical modifications. Identical physical mounting profiles and IP20 panel enclosures allow seamless drop-in placement during emergency maintenance.

When commissioning a replacement, all parameter configurations stored in the failing unit must be backed up and downloaded to the new drive via the 8201BB keypad or Global Drive Control software. Additionally, fieldbus interface modules installed in the integrated option slot must be transferred to the replacement unit to match network communication addresses and node configurations.

For modernizing legacy control cabinets, the manufacturer's recommended migration route for discontinued 8200/8210 series drives is the Lenze i550 cabinet frequency inverter. When migrating to new generation hardware, control engineers must accommodate structural software differences, parameter mapping variations, and physical footprint changes.
