SEW MOVIDRIVE MDX61B0055-5A3-4-00 | 5.5kW AC Inverter Drive

In high-demand industrial processing, maintaining consistent motor torque and speed control under continuous operational loads is critical. The SEW MOVIDRIVE B MDX61B0055-5A3-4-00 Drive delivers exceptional performance for mid-range power applications. Designed for constant-load duty, this frequency inverter supplies 5.5 kW (7.5 HP) of recommended motor power with an apparent output capacity of 8.7 kVA and a rated current output of 12.5A.

Constant-Load Capability & Electrical Performance

Operating across a standard 3-phase 380–500V AC power supply, the SEW MOVIDRIVE B MDX61B0055-5A3-4-00 Drive is engineered to maintain high operating efficiency without thermal breakdown during uninterrupted industrial cycles.

  • Continuous-Duty Sizing: Built specifically to handle sustained torque demands in continuous manufacturing processes rather than brief load bursts.

  • Stable Power Delivery: Provides a clean 12.5A output current to ensure smooth motor shaft rotation and minimal speed fluctuations under load changes.

  • Seamless Scalability: Serves as an ideal step-up drive option when expanding plant machinery beyond lower 3.0 kW or 4.0 kW power thresholds.
