Het item werd toegevoegd aan uw offerteaanvraag
Product Information
The Lenze 00408599 (type EVF9324-EV) is a 5.5 kW vector-controlled frequency inverter belonging to the 9300 Vector product family. Operating on a 3-phase AC input supply voltage range from 320 to 528 V AC with a rated mains input current of 12 A, this drive delivers a continuous output current of 13 A across a 0 to 400 V AC output range. Constructed in a compact book-format chassis designed for space-saving panel mounting, the inverter regulates motor speed and torque across multiple operating modes, including sensorless vector control, field-oriented vector control with feedback, and V/f characteristic control up to a maximum output frequency of 480 Hz at an 8 kHz default switching frequency.
Control integration is provided through 6 freely programmable digital inputs, 1 controller inhibit input (CINH), 4 digital outputs, 2 bipolar analog inputs, and 2 analog outputs. For networked architectures, the unit features an integrated CAN system bus operating up to 500 kbit/s, along with an Automation Interface (AIF) slot that supports plug-in fieldbus modules such as PROFIBUS-DP (EMF2133IB) or DeviceNet (EMF2175IB). Commissioning and device parameterization are conducted using Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) PC software or the optional pluggable EMZ9371BC keypad. The drive's internal non-volatile EEPROM memory can hold four complete parameter sets, enabling rapid parameter transfer when setting up a spare unit provided by ABC Industrial Parts to minimize line downtime.
Operational status and troubleshooting are indicated via a dual Red/Green status LED, where flashing green indicates inverter ready or inhibited, solid green signifies drive enabled, flashing red signals an active fault trip, and solid red indicates a fatal internal control hardware failure. The unit records diagnostic history in parameter C0168 and displays diagnostic parameters across the C005x and C018x series. Common faults include overcurrent (OC1, OC2, OC5), overvoltage (OU), undervoltage (LU), overtemperature (OH, OH1, OH3, OH4, OH7), mains phase failure (LP1), and communication errors (CE0, CE1). When severe internal faults such as memory corruption (EEr) or hardware initialization failures (H05) occur, internal control components are not field-serviceable, making repair or a tested exchange unit from ABC Industrial Parts the most reliable path back to operation.

Programming and Configuration
The Lenze EVF9324-EV frequency inverter is configured using Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) software or via the optional pluggable EMZ9371BC keypad module. Software-based commissioning provides parameter monitoring, drive tuning, and configuration management over a direct communication interface or fieldbus network. Users can store and modify functional parameters including acceleration time (C0012), deceleration time (C0013), motor rated parameters (C0087/C0088), and maximum speed limits (C0596).
The inverter features internal non-volatile EEPROM memory capable of retaining up to four complete parameter sets. This capability allows complex machine profiles to be saved directly on the drive. Parameter restoration to factory default values is performed by setting parameter C0002 to 1. When downloading configuration files to a replacement unit, parameter data must originate from a compatible hardware revision and power class, as mismatched parameter sets trigger error code P12.
Communication and System Integration
Network communication on the Lenze 00408599 drive relies on an integrated CAN system bus and a plug-in Automation Interface (AIF) expansion slot. The system bus operates at data rates up to 500 kbit/s via terminal blocks X4 and X5. Correct network topology requires a 120 Ohm bus termination resistor positioned at both physical ends of the CAN cable segment to prevent signal reflections and communication timeouts.
For high-level industrial fieldbus systems, the drive's AIF slot accepts optional plug-in interface modules, including the EMF2133IB PROFIBUS-DP module, EMF2175IB DeviceNet module, and LECOM-B RS485 module. Communication status and slot health are continuously monitored by internal system diagnostics. Interrupted communication between the inverter control board and the AIF slot triggers error code CE0, while system bus frame errors or timeouts trigger error code CE1.
Diagnostics and Status Indication
System diagnostics for the EVF9324-EV frequency inverter are accessible via visual status LED indicators, parameter monitoring, and diagnostic software tools. A front-panel dual Red/Green LED displays the immediate operational state: flashing green indicates ready or inhibited status, solid green confirms drive enabled running status, flashing red signals an active fault TRIP, and solid red indicates a fatal internal hardware defect.
Detailed fault diagnostics are stored in an internal history buffer accessed through parameter C0168. Current real-time operating conditions, terminal states, and status flags are monitored via parameter series C005x and C018x using the EMZ9371BC keypad module or Global Drive Control (GDC) software.
Status LED Indicators
| LED | Color/Status | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| Ready / Red-Green LED | Red/Green - Flashing / Solid | Green flashing = Inverter ready / inhibited; Green solid = Drive enabled / running; Red flashing = Fault / TRIP active; Red solid = Fatal internal control hardware failure. |
Replacement and Spare Part Considerations
The Lenze 9300 Vector series, including model EVF9324-EV (part number 00408599), has reached end-of-life status. While the Lenze i550 cabinet inverter series serves as the recommended manufacturer successor for new system designs, existing production installations frequently require direct drop-in replacements to preserve control panel wiring, mounting footprints, and fieldbus configurations without re-engineering the automation architecture.
Replacing a faulty EVF9324-EV inverter requires transferring the existing parameter set from the original drive using GDC software backup files or a saved keypad parameter profile. Prior to powering on the motor, technicians must verify mains supply wiring on L1, L2, L3, motor output phases, brake resistor connections, and thermal sensor connections on terminal X10. Optional fieldbus modules installed in the AIF slot must be transferred to the replacement unit and secured with fixing screws to ensure proper communication.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can parameter configurations be transferred to a replacement Lenze EVF9324-EV drive?
Parameter sets can be transferred using Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) PC software via a PC connection or by using an optional EMZ9371BC keypad module to back up and restore parameters from the drive's non-volatile EEPROM memory.
What do the different states of the Red/Green status LED indicate?
A flashing green LED indicates the inverter is ready or inhibited, while solid green means the drive is enabled and running. Flashing red indicates an active TRIP fault, and a solid red LED signals a fatal internal control hardware failure.
What external fieldbus communication modules are compatible with the EVF9324-EV?
The inverter features an Automation Interface (AIF) slot that supports plug-in modules, including the EMF2133IB module for PROFIBUS-DP, the EMF2175IB module for DeviceNet, and LECOM-B RS485 communication modules.
How do I troubleshoot a CE1 fault code on the Lenze 00408599 inverter?
A CE1 error code indicates a communication fault on the integrated CAN system bus. Check the system bus wiring at terminals X4 and X5, ensure 120 Ohm termination resistors are installed at both physical cable ends, and verify baud rate parameters.
Is the Lenze EVF9324-EV field-serviceable if an H05 hardware error occurs?
No. Error code H05 indicates an internal control hardware initialization or self-test failure. If power cycling the inverter does not clear the fault, internal control components are not field-serviceable, requiring unit repair or replacement.
