Mitsubishi Electric FR-A820-1.5K-1 Variable Frequency Drive

The Mitsubishi Electric FR-A820-1.5K-1 Variable Frequency Drive is a 1.5 kW panel-mounted drive from the FR-A800 series, designed for precise motor speed and torque control in industrial automation systems. It accepts 1-phase 200–240 VAC input and provides 3-phase AC output across a 0.2 to 400 Hz range, with control options that include advanced vector control or V/F control. Built for demanding environments, it supports forced-air cooling and 150% overload for 60 seconds, making it suitable for conveyors, pumps, fans, HVAC equipment, water treatment, and other production machinery requiring smooth acceleration and energy efficiency. Communication is via RS-485 with optional network modules, and it is designed for easy panel mounting in industrial installations. Common replacements include FR-A820-2.2K-1, FR-A840-1.5K-1, and FR-D720-1.5K.
