EV510A-2800G/3150P-T4: A High-Capacity VFD for Power, Precision, and Reliability
The EV510A-2800G/3150P-T4 is a high-performance vector frequency inverter engineered for high-capacity industrial systems. Its core strength is the G/P Dual-Rated design, which allows a single unit to be expertly configured for two different operational modes
G-Type (Constant Torque): Rated for 280kW (approx. 375 HP) “General” (G-type) loads, such as large extruders, crushers, or rolling mills. This mode is defined by its high starting torque and robust overload capacity.
P-Type (Variable Torque): Rated for 315kW (approx. 425 HP) “Pump or fans” (P-type) loads. This mode is optimized for energy efficiency in applications like centrifugal pumps and large-scale ventilation.
This intelligent dual-rating streamlines inventory for system integrators and provides a standardized, high-performance control platform. As an enhanced version of the EV510 series, the EV510A is “smaller in size, more compact in structure… and more stable in performance”. It utilizes a “high-performance current vector control” algorithm for outstanding precision and integrates essential reliability features like “Instantaneous stop not stop” (power loss ride-through) and a “Quick current-limit function” to maximize system uptime.
Why Choose the EV510A-2800G/3150P-T4?
In the 280-315kW power class, the EV510A-2800G/3150P-T4 provides an intelligent combination of power, precision, and value.
- Strategic Power Flexibility (Dual-Rated): The G/P dual-rating is this drive’s most intelligent feature. It eliminates the need to source and stock two separate AC drives for a 280kW heavy-duty machine and a 315kW fan. The EV510A-2800G/3150P-T4 handles both, reducing inventory costs and simplifying procurement.
- Engineered for Extreme Uptime: For critical processes, reliability is paramount. The “Instantaneous stop not stop” function provides essential ride-through for brief power sags, while the “Quick Current-limit” actively prevents nuisance trips from load shocks, keeping your operation running.
- A Compact High-Power Solution: As the upgraded EV510A version, this drive is “smaller in size, more compact in structure, and more stable in performance”. This saves valuable cabinet real estate and contributes to a lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) through enhanced reliability.
- Integrated Intelligence: This is more than a simple motor spinner. With powerful Sensorless Vector Control (SVC) for high-torque tasks and a “Built-in PID” controller for process loops, this single drive can manage a wide range of sophisticated automation tasks without needing an external PLC.
Typical Application Fields
Large-Scale Plastic Extruders
Plastic extruders demand high, constant torque to turn the screw and melt plastic. The 280kW G-Type rating with SVC provides stable speed control, which is critical for uniform product diameter and quality.
Heavy-Duty Cranes
For heavy-duty hoisting, FVC mode (with a PG card) provides the 180% torque at 0Hz needed for safely lifting and holding 280kW (375 HP) loads, ensuring precision and safety.
Large Industrial Fans
Perfect for 425 HP large industrial fans, blowers, and HVAC systems. The built-in PID reads duct pressure to precisely match fan speed to building demand, dramatically reducing energy consumption.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What is the G/P Dual-Rating on the EV510A-2800G/3150P-T4?
A: This specifies the drive’s dual-rating, selectable via parameter P9-76. G-Type (General) is rated for 280kW Constant Torque applications (like extruders) and provides a high overload capacity (150% for 60s). P-Type (Pump) is rated for 315kW Variable Torque applications (like fans) with a standard overload (120% for 60s).
Q: Is the EV510A an upgrade from the EV510?
A: Yes, the EV510A is the upgraded version. It is “smaller in size, more compact in structure, and more stable in performance”.
Q: What is “Instantaneous stop not stop”?
A: This is a power loss ride-through function. If the power sags, the drive uses the motor’s feedback energy to “compensate for voltage-drop to keep running for a short time,” preventing a shutdown.
Q: Can this VFD control two different motors?
A: Yes, but not simultaneously. It has a “Multi-motor Switch” function. You can program two motor profiles (in parameter groups P1 and A2) and switch between them using a digital input or parameter P0-24.
Q: What are the most common fault codes?
A: Common VFD fault codes include FU02 (Over current during acceleration), FU06 (Over voltage during deceleration), FU09 (Under voltage), and FU14 (Inverter Overheat).
Q: Does this drive have a built-in PID controller?
A: Yes, it features a powerful “Built-in PID” controller. This allows it to receive an analog feedback signal (like a pressure or temperature sensor) and automatically manage a closed-loop process. The parameters are in group PA.
Quick Start Guide (How-To)
This guide is intended to help you quickly set up and diagnose the EV510A Variable Frequency Drive based on the user manual.
Guide 1: Commissioning – How to Auto-Tune the Motor
To achieve the best performance in Sensorless Vector Control (SVC) mode (when P0-01=0), you must first perform a motor auto-tune.
- Input Motor Nameplate Data: In parameter group P1, enter the following values from your motor’s nameplate:
- P1-01: Motor 1 Rated power (kW)
- P1-02: Motor 1 Rated voltage (V)
- P1-03: Motor 1 Rated current (A)
- P1-04: Motor 1 Rated frequency (Hz)
- P1-05: Motor 1 Rated speed (rpm)
- Select Auto-Tune Mode: Set parameter P1-37 to choose the tuning type:
- 1: Asynchronous machine static self-learning
- 2: Asynchronous machine dynamic complete self-learning (Requires motor to be uncoupled)
- Execute Auto-Tune: After selecting the mode, press the RUN key to begin the auto-tuning process.
Guide 2: Process Control – How to Set Up PID
Using the built-in PID (Group PA) allows you to create a constant pressure pump system without an external PLC.
- Set PID Feedback Source: Wire your 4-20mA pressure transducer to analog input AI2. Set the AI2 jumper on the control board to ‘I’ (current). Then, set parameter PA-02 = 1 (PID feedback source = AI2).
- Set PID Target Value (Setpoint): Set PA-00 = 0 (PID reference source = PA-01). Then, enter your target pressure percentage in PA-01 (e.g., 50.0%).
- Adjust PID Gains:
- PA-05 (Proportional Gain Kp1): Default is 20.0. Adjust to speed up or slow down the response.
- PA-06 (Integral Time Ti1): Default is 2.00s. Adjust to eliminate steady-state error.
- Set Feedback Loss Detection: To prevent the pump from running at max speed if the sensor wire breaks, set PID feedback loss detection.
- PA-26: Set detection level (e.g., 10.0%).
- PA-27: Set detection time (e.g., 2.0s). This will trigger fault FU31 (PID feedback lost).
