Carlo Gavazzi debuts single phase VFD for industrial doors
10 May 2022
CARLO GAVAZZI has launched RVDS single phase variable frequency drives specifically designed to be used in industrial door applications.

The RVDS is used to control the rotational speed of induction motors by controlling the frequency of the electrical power supplied to it. Providing dedicated functions such as reverse, multi-speed operation, external braking, and management of an external electro-mechanical brake all via its 5 digital inputs. Highlighting its suitability for rolling and sliding doors.
The open board design is available as 0.55 kW (2.5 Arms) and 0.75 kW (4.2 Arms) versions, providing a compact solution that especially suits electrical panels where space is a premium whilst the easy set up and push-in connectors make for a more reliable and faster installation time.
As Industry 4.0 and the Industrial Internet of Things continues to digitise our processes across all industries, the built-in Modbus RTU communication port facilitates integration with an automation system and/or PLC allowing real time status monitoring which improves efficiency and provides predictive maintenance as well as providing real-time data.
As well as providing faster and simpler installation, the new RVDS benefits from compliance with IEC / EN 61800-5-1 and IEC / EN 61800-3 (Industrial environment) and carries the CE, and UK CA approval.
