What the VACON 100 option codes mean

VACON drives are ordered by a long list of option codes. For this unit +FL07 is the firmware language pack (UK, DE, SI, HR, RS, BG), +SBF3 is a three-relay board in the B slot, +FBM1 gives Modbus, N2 and BACnet as standard protocols, and +LS50 sets 50 Hz default motor frequency with metric units. +GAUL, +GACE and further approval codes show the approvals as printed in the store.

The operating guide for the VACON 100 wall-mounted drives covers both the INDUSTRIAL and the FLOW versions and explains the keypad, the control I/O and the application parameters. A customer who needs Ethernet-based communications should specify the fieldbus board code when ordering.

Selecting between the INDUSTRIAL and FLOW versions

The INDUSTRIAL type serves general machinery with the standard application, while FLOW is meant for pumps and fans, with application functions for them. This code is the INDUSTRIAL type with no preloaded application (+A0000). Plan the cooling and cable entry: the metric conduit plate (+QGLM) is fitted.

The brake chopper needs a resistor that is not included, and the 5 A size fits a motor of up to 2.2 kW at low overload; check the nameplate current of your motor against the 5.6 A figure at normal loading.

This 5 A unit is a common spare in plants that run several VACON drives of different sizes. If your installed base uses a particular language pack or default frequency, say so in the enquiry, because those are part of the order code and cannot be changed by the packing list. Check that the +FL07 language pack matches the language the operators need on the keypad.

About brand

Danfoss is the Danish engineering group that makes refrigeration and air-conditioning controls, heating components, variable speed drives and mobile hydraulics. Mads Clausen founded it on 1 September 1933 at his parents' farm in Nordborg on the island of Als, after making his first refrigeration expansion valve in 1932. Nordborg is still the group's headquarters, and Danfoss remains controlled by the Clausen family through the Bitten & Mads Clausen Foundation.

Danfoss company profile

Founded 1 September 1933, Nordborg, Denmark, by Mads Clausen (1905–1966)
First product Thermostatic expansion valve for refrigeration
Headquarters Nordborg, Denmark
Ownership Private; majority controlled by the Bitten & Mads Clausen Foundation and the Clausen family
Size About 42,000 employees (2023)
Business segments Danfoss Climate Solutions (refrigeration, air conditioning and heating), Danfoss Drives (VLT and VACON frequency converters, soft starters), Danfoss Power Solutions (mobile and industrial hydraulics)

Milestones

  • 1932–1933: First expansion valve; the company is founded in Nordborg.
  • 1939: 26 employees. By the 10th anniversary in 1943 the company has 179.
  • 1950s: Rapid growth turns Nordborg into a Danfoss town with housing and schools for its workforce.
  • 1968: Danfoss launches its VLT frequency converter, one of the first mass-produced AC drives.
  • 2014: Acquisition of the Finnish drives maker Vacon, now the VACON brand.
  • 2021: Acquisition of Eaton's hydraulics business.

Choosing Danfoss products

For solenoid valves, check the operating principle. A direct-operated valve such as EV210B opens even at 0 bar differential pressure. A servo-operated valve such as EV220B needs a minimum differential (typically about 0.3 bar) to open, while an assisted-lift valve such as EV250B works from 0 bar. Coils are ordered separately, so the voltage on the coil (for example 230 V AC or 24 V DC) must match the control circuit. For drives, the VLT family is split by application: FC 51 Micro Drive for small machines, FC 102 HVAC Drive for fans and pumps in buildings, FC 202 AQUA Drive for water, and FC 302 AutomationDrive for demanding industrial duty.

Where Danfoss products are used

In Oman and the GCC, Danfoss drives run pumps, fans and compressors in district cooling plants, water and wastewater stations, desalination and building HVAC. Danfoss pressure switches, transmitters and solenoid valves are built into chillers, refrigeration plants, boilers and hydraulic systems, and AB-QM valves balance chilled-water circuits in large buildings.

Ordering Danfoss products: what we need

Send the Danfoss code number from the label (for example 032U7115 or 131B0149) or the full drive type code (FC-302P3K0T5...). For drives, add the motor power, supply voltage and any fieldbus option. For valves, add the size, connection, medium and coil voltage. For pressure switches and transmitters, add the range, output and pressure connection.
