Product Information

Product Family: 8200 vector | Series: 8200 vector

The Lenze 00400035 (model EVF8213-E) is a 3.0 kW frequency inverter from the 8200 vector series, designed for precise velocity and torque control of 4-pole standard asynchronous motors in industrial automation systems. Operating on a 3-phase AC input voltage range from 320 V to 550 V, this IP20 panel-mount drive delivers a continuous output current of 7.0 A at a default switching frequency of 8 kHz. To handle high starting torque and momentary peak loads, the drive supports a 150% overload current of 10.5 A for up to 60 seconds. The inverter features dual motor control strategies, incorporating both linear or quadratic adjustable V/f characteristic control and high-dynamic sensorless vector control (VC) across an output frequency range of 0 to 480 Hz.

Integrating a replacement unit into an existing machine requires matching the modular function architecture and transferring drive parameters. The EVF8213-E relies on attachable option modules to interface with control terminals and fieldbus networks such as CANopen, PROFIBUS-DP, INTERBUS, or LECOM. Commissioning a spare drive involves configuring or cloning the four internal non-volatile EEPROM parameter sets, which can be transferred using the optional EMZ8201BB Keypad XT module without a PC or uploaded using Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) software. When replacing a failed drive, ABC Industrial Parts can support maintenance teams with tested replacement units and expert guidance on parameter extraction and module transfer to minimize machine downtime.

Diagnostic information is provided through dual front-panel LEDs, a programmable TRIP relay output, an active fault reader on the Keypad XT, and a fault history buffer accessible via parameter C0168 in GDC software. A solid green LED indicates normal operation, while a blinking green LED signals controller inhibit (CINH) or active parameter configuration. A solid red LED indicates a TRIP fault state with drive outputs disabled; if a red light appears immediately at power-up, an internal hardware failure is indicated. Basic field checks should include checking 3-phase mains voltage, motor winding insulation, cooling fan operation, and fieldbus wiring. Internal electronic failures or persistent EEPROM errors cannot be serviced in the field, making drive replacement or professional repair through ABC Industrial Parts the most reliable path back to operation.

Programming and Configuration

Parameter management on the Lenze EVF8213-E frequency inverter is structured around four internal non-volatile EEPROM parameter sets. Drive configuration and adjustments can be performed directly at the unit using the attachable EMZ8201BB Keypad XT module or remotely from a computer running Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) software.

System parameters can be duplicated efficiently between drives using the Keypad XT module's internal memory, allowing maintenance technicians to clone drive configurations without connecting a PC. In instances where drive parameters become corrupted or need re-initialization, the drive memory can be reset to factory default values by setting parameter code C0002 = 1.

Communication and System Integration

The EVF8213-E drive utilizes a modular function interface architecture to handle fieldbus communications and control terminal signals. The inverter accommodates plug-in function modules, allowing adaptation to networks such as CANopen via the E82ZAFCC module, PROFIBUS-DP via the E82ZAFPC module, as well as INTERBUS and LECOM serial bus protocols.

Fieldbus configuration, network addresses, and I/O assignments are governed by the specific function module inserted into the front interface slot. This plug-in design permits swapping fieldbus interfaces or converting control topologies without modifying the main 3.0 kW power section.

Diagnostics and Status Indication

Operational monitoring and fault identification on the EVF8213-E are conducted using the front status LEDs, the Keypad XT text display, and internal software diagnostic buffers. The drive records historical fault logs in parameter C0168, accessible via Lenze GDC software, and features a programmable TRIP relay output for integration into external safety and alarm circuits.

Status LED Indicators

LEDColor/StatusMeaning
Green LED (Operation)Green - Solid / FlashingContinuous green indicates normal operation / ready. Blinking green indicates controller inhibit (CINH) or active parameter setting.
Red LED (TRIP / Fault)Red - SolidContinuous red indicates TRIP/fault state with drive output disabled. Solid red immediately on power-up indicates internal hardware fault.

Replacement and Spare Part Considerations

When installing a replacement Lenze 00400035 / EVF8213-E inverter, ensure that both the electrical ratings (3.0 kW, 320–550 V AC) and attached option modules match the original unit. Because control terminals and fieldbus interfaces rely on external function modules, the module from the existing drive must be moved over to the spare unit or reconfigured accordingly.

Commissioning a replacement drive requires reloading the machine parameters stored in memory. This can be accomplished by copying saved parameter profiles via the EMZ8201BB Keypad XT or loading saved files using Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) software. Although Lenze has discontinued the 8200 vector series, direct replacement units remain vital for maintaining legacy machinery, with the Lenze i550 cabinet inverter series available as the modern lifecycle successor for broader panel redesigns.
