SEW MOVIDRIVE MDX61B0300-503-4-00 | 30kW General Purpose Inverter

SEW-Eurodrive MOVIDRIVE B MDX61B0300-503-4-00 — 30kW, 3-phase 380-500V AC, 60A output, EtherCAT/PROFIBUS/Modbus, IP20.

Overview

The SEW-Eurodrive MOVIDRIVE B MDX61B0300-503-4-00 delivers 30kW of capacity, one of the higher-power options in the MOVIDRIVE B general-purpose range. It runs on a standard 3-phase 380–500VAC supply and delivers a rated output current of 60A across a 0–400Hz output frequency range — solid capability for demanding industrial motor applications.

Communication flexibility is a strong point here, with RS485 Modbus RTU built in alongside support for Ethernet, EtherCAT, Fieldbus, PROFIBUS, and SBus, so it integrates smoothly into virtually any existing plant automation network. Onboard PID control and V/f control mode cover both process control loops and standard speed regulation, and the I/O set (2 analog inputs, 8 digital inputs, 2 analog outputs, 5 digital outputs) provides room for more complex machine control logic. A 150% overload capacity for one minute gives useful headroom for load spikes, and acceleration/deceleration times are adjustable from 0 to 6000 seconds for precise motion tuning.

Housed in an IP20/IP10 enclosure at 200 x 465 x 308mm and 15kg, this drive shares its physical footprint with the smaller 15kW and 22kW models in the same family — handy if you’re standardizing cabinet layouts across a range of power ratings. It’s rated for 0°C to +40°C operation (storage from -25°C to +70°C).

Key Features

  • 30kW Power Rating — Strong capacity for high-demand industrial motor control
