1. Introduction
1.1 Product Overview
Although the Vacon 50X AC drive is small in size, it is big on performance. It is an economical yet powerful
solution for many industrial applications. It features remote communications capability (using Modbus®
protocol), a keypad for easy configuration, and standard NEMA 4X / IP66 and NEMA 12 / IP55 enclosures
that eliminate the need for mounting in a separate enclosure.
The Vacon 50X product family includes a wide variety of models to suit almost any input voltage require-
ment. An ‘x’ in the following table indicates what models are currently available. Refer to Chapter 2 on
page 5 for help in interpreting model numbers.
