Lenze i500 conveyor solutions
i500 drives are available in IP20, NEMA 1, as
well as NEMA 4X versions, ready to mount
where you need them. NEMA 4X models also
feature an optional, lockable disconnect switch
to service the motor right at the conveyor.
The NEMA 4X models can also be equipped
with optional 22 mm operators which can
be used for functions such as START/STOP
and potentiometers for speed control for
ease of operation by gloved workers.
i500 drives are compatible with both induction and
PMAC motors, and have been employed successfully in
Motorized Drum Roller (MDR) applications, keeping pace
with design trends in the intralogistics industry.
i500 inverters can also be equipped with
optional WLAN communication modules
for ease of diagnostics or programming
when mounted in hard-to-reach locations.
No challenge is too great nor single application too small. From industrial plants to OEMs to intralogistics centers,
Lenze i500 conveyor solutions are hard at work. Versatile and robust, our industrial drives are cost effective and low
maintenance. Whatever your specific application requires, Lenze has the drive to match form, fit and function.

i500 — Conveyor Ready!
Conveyors are used in a wide range of commercial, industrial,
and intralogistics applications. Conveyor motors are sized for
the maximum torque starting condition; however, once a
system is running at speed the required torque, and thereby
the energy requirements, drops significantly.
To get the best sizing possible, the i500 drives series are all
capable of 200% peak load for 3 seconds, and 150% for 1
minute. To achieve maximum energy savings, i500 drives
can use their “V/Hz eco” function to dynamically adjust their
V/Hz profile to reduce the voltage supplied to the motor as a
function of dropping motor current.
Adjustable S ramp acceleration/deceleration allows jerk to be
reduced and results in gentler material handling. Switch-off
positioning can be employed for repeatable stopping
orientation of the application.

The i550 also features an optional Safe Torque Off (STO)
input module rated for SIL3 level e performance-ready to
integrate into your plant’s stringent safety control systems.

Technical Details
DetailsV/Hz Eco mode for maximum energy savings:
In the Lenze i500, set the “Motor control mode” (P300.000) = “V/f
control (open loop) [6]” and also set “V/f characteristic shape”
(P302.000) = “Eco [3]” to take full advantage of the energy savings
for induction motors in conveyor applications.
