Overview

The Dart Controls VF-100E-R is a NEMA 4X enclosed EZ VFD® variable frequency drive designed for simplicity without sacrificing performance. This single-phase input (110-240VAC) to three-phase output (230VAC) drive delivers 1HP at 230VAC (3.2A max) or 1/2HP at 120VAC (2.4A max), making it ideal for small to medium industrial motors. Unlike complex VFDs requiring engineering expertise to commission, the VF-100E-R features plug-and-play setup with trimpot adjustments for MIN/MAX speed, acceleration, deceleration, current limit, and boost startup. It includes a removable trimpot board for identical drive configurations and tamper prevention. Built with a vibration-resistant single-board design and Power Factor Correction (PFC), the VF-100E-R reduces energy costs while protecting motors from over-temperature and over-current conditions. Standard features include 8kHz switching frequency, 5-120Hz output range, static braking, reversing inputs, and an isolated 0-5VDC voltage signal follower for precise control. The NEMA 4X enclosure ensures durability in harsh environments, and the built-in run relay confirms operational status. 100% manufactured in the USA, this drive is a reliable, cost-effective solution for OEMs and end-users seeking an easy-to-install VFD without compromising Dart Controls' quality.
