Key Technical Specifications
Power Output: 2.2 kW (3 HP).
Input Power: Single-phase 200V to 240V AC (+10% to -15%).
Control Method: Dynamic Torque Vector Control for high performance at low speeds (starting torque of 150% at 1 Hz).
Overload Capacity: 150% for 1 minute; up to 200% for 0.5 seconds.
Communication: Built-in RS-485 port (RJ45) supporting Modbus RTU.
The Fuji Electric FRN0012C2S-7A (FRENIC-Mini C2) functions as a high-capacity motor controller for 2.2 kW (3 HP) motors, delivering a robust 11 Amps of output current. While it is physically larger than the smaller C2 models, it provides the most powerful torque management available in the single-phase input "Mini" category.
Core Control Functions
High-Power Torque Vectoring: Uses Dynamic Torque Vector Control to provide a massive starting torque of 200% at 0.5 Hz. This allows it to easily start heavy 3 HP loads, such as large industrial mixers, stone crushers, or loaded vertical conveyors.
Variable Speed Range: Regulates speed from 0.1 to 400 Hz, allowing a 3 HP motor to run at extremely slow speeds without stalling or at very high speeds for specialized equipment.
Braking Performance: Unlike the smaller units, this 2.2 kW model is frequently used in applications requiring frequent stops. It features a built-in braking chopper (transistor), allowing for the direct connection of an external braking resistor to dissipate energy during rapid deceleration.
Advanced Intelligence
PID Control with Sleep Mode: Automatically manages pressure or flow. It includes a "sleep" function that turns the motor off completely when demand is zero (like a closed water tap) and wakes it up automatically when pressure drops.
Synchronous Motor Support: In addition to standard induction motors, the C2 series can control permanent magnet synchronous motors, which are increasingly used for high-efficiency industrial applications.
Automatic Energy Optimization: Continuously calculates the most efficient voltage/frequency ratio for the current 3 HP load, reducing wasted heat and energy costs.
Integration & Protection
Maintenance Diagnostics: The drive monitors its own health, including the "life expectancy" of the main capacitors and the cooling fan, providing a warning signal before a failure occurs.
RS-485 Networking: Supports Modbus RTU through its RJ45 port, allowing it to be linked with other drives or an HMI like the Weinview MT8052iP for a complete control system.
Safety Suite: Built-in protection against overcurrent, overvoltage, input phase loss, and motor thermal overload.
Comparison to 1.5 kW Model
The FRN0012C2S-7A provides nearly 20% more current (11A vs 9.2A) than the 1.5 kW model, making it the preferred choice for heavy-duty industrial 3 HP motors where reliable startup and thermal headroom are critical.
