Omron Industrial Automation is a leading UK supplier of inverter drives for a wide range of industrial and commercial applications.  They are designed with high quality components to guarantee a long operation life and minimise downtime.

This section provides an introduction to the range of general purpose and machine control models including: JX compact drive; MX2 for advanced machine control; RX high performance drives, and the SX for high power loads up to 690V.

JX

For motors three phase motors up to 7.5kW and with the RFI filter built-in and communications integrated as standard, the JX provides a compact and complete solution to a whole range of simple applications.  JX is designed to minimise space and cost.

Key features of JX are:

RS485 Modbus built-in

Side-by-side mounting

EMC filter built-in

PID function

Micro-surge voltage suppression

Automatic energy saving

Emergency shut-off

Second motor setting

Auto carrier-frequency reduction

PTC thermistor input

Cooling fan switch control

RoHS, CE, UL

MX2

MX2 has been developed to provide advanced motor and machine control.  Its advanced design and algorithms enable the MX2 to provide smooth control down to zero speed, and precise cyclic operations and torque control capability in open loop.

The MX2 provides high functionality for machine control such as positioning, speed synchronisation and logic programming and safety.

Key features of MX2 are:

Up to 15 kW

200% starting torque

Torque control in open loop

Double rating VT 120%/1 min and CT 150%/1 min

IM & PM motor control

Safety conforming to ISO13849-1 Category3 performance level PLD

Built-in Logic programming

Positioning functionality

Integrated at Omron machine Automation solution

Fieldbus communications: EtherCAT, Modbus, DeviceNet, Profibus, CompoNet, MECHATROLINK-II and EtherNet/IP

IP54 version

RX

RX is the Omron high performance, high reliability inverter for intensive machine control up to 132 kW.  It has abundant application functionality on board and can be customised to match the machine requirements.

The RX can be operated in either open or closed loop mode.  In sensorless vector mode, 200% starting torque is available to speeds as low as 0.3 Hz, and in closed loop mode, with the option card fitted, full torque is available down to zero speed. This makes the RX ideal for applications including conveyors, mixers, hoists, pumps and many more.

Key features of RX are:

High starting torque in open loop: 200% at 0.3 Hz

Full torque at 0 Hz in closed loop

Sensor-less and vector closed-loop control

Double rating VT 120%/1 min and CT 150%/1 min

Built-in EMC filter

Built-in logic programmability

Built-in application functionality

Positioning functionality

Automatic energy saving

Fieldbus communications: Modbus, DeviceNet, Profibus, Componet, EtherCAT and ML2

CE, cULus, RoHS

SX

SX Series IP54 drives

The SX inverter is designed to drive high power applications such as pumps, fans, compressors or blowers through to closed loop vector control required by cranes, crushers, mills or mixers. The standard inverter has built-in application software.

Key features of SX are:

500V – 690V power supply from 90kW up to 1000kW

400V power supply from 0.75 kW up to 800 kW

Compact design IP54 full range

Built-in Filter according to C3 Class

Safety according to EN13849-1 and EN62061 standards

Load curve control

Logic programmability

Built-in special application functionality as Multi-pump control or Crane applications

Hardware customisation (Main switch, Liquid cooling, 12-pulse rectifier)

Fieldbus communications: EtherCAT, PROFINET, Modbus, DeviceNet, PROFIBUS, Modbus TCP
