Specially engineered for space-restricted and cost-conscious motor control applications, this micro-drive accepts a 230V single-phase AC input and converts it into an adjustable three-phase variable frequency output to drive standard AC induction motors. Rated at 2.2 kW (with a capacity balancing across the 2 HP to 3 HP application range at an 11 Amp continuous output), its responsive microprocessor optimizes motor torque curves while significantly reducing baseline mechanical wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCore Technical Advantages\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Density Space Saving Profile:\u003c\/strong\u003e Its miniaturized dimensions allow for side-by-side mounting inside compact control panels, optimizing cabinet layout architecture and saving valuable rail space.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle-Phase to Three-Phase Inversion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Eliminates the requirement for costly three-phase grid drop lines by sourcing standard 230V single-phase utility power and outputting balanced three-phase lines to run industrial-grade motors.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThermal and Weight Efficiency:\u003c\/strong\u003e Weighing a lightweight 2.2 lbs (approx. 1.0 kg), the drive utilizes a structured modular airflow path alongside low-loss IGBT switches to limit the thermal emission profile under heavy load conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse;\"\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f2f2f2;\"\u003e\n      \u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px; text-align: left;\"\u003eParameter Attribute\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px; text-align: left;\"\u003eFactory Specification Data\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand \/ Manufacturer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003eDelta Electronics\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComplete Product Model\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003eVFD022EL21W-1 (VFD022EL21W)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Series\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003eVFD-EL-W Series (Micro Sub-Fractional Inverters)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput Phase Requirements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e230 V AC Nominal | 1-Phase (Single Phase)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMotor Power Handling\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e2.2 kW (Matches 2 HP to 3 HP industrial motors)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRated Output Current\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e11 Amperes continuous operation\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarmonized \/ HTS Code\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e8537101190 \/ 8504409999\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNet Unit Weight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e2.2 lbs (approx. 1.0 kg)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhysical Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ddd; padding: 8px;\"\u003e3.94 in (W) x 3.5 in (H) x 6.85 in (D) \u003cbr\u003e [ Approx. 100mm(W) x 89mm(H) x 174mm(D) ]\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation \u0026amp; Power Wiring Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInput Terminal Layout (Single-Phase):\u003c\/strong\u003e Wire the incoming 230V AC grid single-phase utility hot and neutral lines strictly to terminals \u003cstrong\u003eR\/L1\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eS\/L2\u003c\/strong\u003e.

If you are using a standard dual-voltage motor (e.g., 220V\/380V), you must configure the motor junction terminal box to a \u003cstrong\u003eDelta connection ($\\Delta$ connection)\u003c\/strong\u003e. Do not use the Star configuration (Y connection), as the reduced line voltage will result in a severe loss of motor output torque.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Delta","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51914661200004,"sku":"VFD022EL21W-1","price":127.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/7454\/7844\/files\/VFD022EL21W-1-1.jpg?v=1780500080","url":"https:\/\/www.etowonauto.com\/products\/delta-vfd022el21w-1-variable-frequency-drive-2-2kw-2hp-230v-single-phase","provider":"Etowon Auto","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
