22F-B2P5N103 New In box Variable Frequency Drive 22FB2P5N103
PRODUCT DETAILS
22F-B2P5N103 — V-mini Micro Drive, 240V Single-Phase, 0.4 kW, IP30
The 22F-B2P5N103 is a V-mini series micro variable frequency drive rated at 0.4 kW / 0.5 HP, accepting 200–240V AC single-phase input. Output current is 2.5A to a three-phase motor. The IP30 / NEMA 1 enclosure (indicated by the "103" suffix) adds a top cover to the standard IP20 open-type housing, offering basic protection against falling objects — appropriate for open-rack installations or environments where the drive is accessible rather than enclosed in a sealed panel.
At this power level and with single-phase input, this drive suits a specific bracket of applications: equipment running from standard single-phase 240V outlets that needs variable speed on a small three-phase motor. Laboratory mixers, small pumps, light-duty conveyors, and fan drives on machines without three-phase supply available are the most common scenarios. The 55 mm mounting width keeps the drive physically compact.

Standalone Operation vs. PLC Control
The 22F can run completely standalone — no PLC, no communication card, no network. Using the four digital inputs and the analog input, a simple standalone control circuit handles most small machine needs:
- A maintained contact from a panel selector switch connected to the Run Forward input starts and stops the motor.
- A 10 kΩ potentiometer powered from the drive's internal 10V reference provides a 0–10V speed reference via the analog input.
- A normally closed contact from an overtemperature switch or interlock wired to the Stop input protects the driven equipment.
- The relay output can drive a run indicator or a remote signal to a SCADA system.
For PLC-controlled installations, the analog input accepts a 0–10V signal from a PLC analog output module, and the digital inputs accept 24V DC signals from PLC transistor or relay outputs. The V-mini has no fieldbus port and cannot be controlled over EtherNet/IP or DeviceNet — if network control is needed, a larger drive platform with an option port is required.
Panel Installation
- Mount vertically on a 35 mm DIN rail or panel surface using the four mounting holes. Do not mount horizontally or inverted — the cooling airflow path depends on vertical orientation.
- Maintain 25 mm clearance above and below. Side-by-side (zero side clearance) mounting is permitted up to the enclosure's thermal derating limit.
- Input protection: fit a dedicated circuit breaker or fuse set for the drive's input current rating — not shared with other loads. The drive provides no internal branch circuit protection.
- Motor cable length: keep under 30 m between the drive and motor. Longer cables increase reflected wave voltage at motor terminals. Add an output reactor if the run exceeds 30 m.
- The IP30 enclosure covers the top — no separate cover plate is needed for the standard installation. In environments with liquid splash or heavy contamination, the IP30 enclosure is still insufficient; a fully enclosed panel with IP54 or higher is required.
FAQ
Q: Can this drive run from a standard 240V household outlet?
The input voltage is within range, but the input current draw (3.5–4A at full load) requires a dedicated circuit with appropriate protection. Sharing with other loads on a household circuit risks tripping the breaker, particularly at startup when DC bus inrush current is highest.
Q: Can a single-phase motor be connected to the output?
No. The drive outputs three-phase PWM regardless of input supply type. Single-phase motors are incompatible with VFD outputs and will be damaged. Only three-phase induction motors should be connected.
Q: Is there a 4–20 mA analog input option?
The 22F-B analog input is 0–10V voltage only. A 4–20 mA signal can be converted to 2–10V using a 500 Ω resistor across the input terminals, provided the signal source can drive that load.
Q: Can communication cards be added to expand network connectivity?
No. The V-mini series has no option port for communication card expansion. For network connectivity (EtherNet/IP, DeviceNet, etc.), a 22A, 22B, or larger drive with an option port is required.
