SD700
TECHNICAL DATA
SD700 Series – High-Performance Variable Speed Drives
The Core of the SD Family
The SD700 Variable Speed Drive represents the foundation of the SD family, covering a wide power range from 1.2 kW to 2,000 kW and voltage ranges from 230 VAC to 690 VAC, with up to 24-pulse configurations. Designed to meet the needs of general industry and marine applications, SD700 offers IP20 and IP54 mechanical designs, making it one of the most flexible and comprehensive drive series available.
With 11 frame sizes, the SD700 family covers the full power spectrum, ensuring continuous operation in the most demanding environments, and making it a secure investment for both new and retrofit projects.
