SEW MOVIDRIVE MDX61B0370-503-4-00 | 37kW Configurable Inverter Drive

SEW-Eurodrive MOVIDRIVE MDX61B0370-503-4-00 — 37kW, 3-phase 380-500V AC, 51.1kVA, IPOSplus positioning, STO safety, 0-400Hz output.

Overview

The SEW-Eurodrive MOVIDRIVE MDX61B0370-503-4-00 is a configurable inverter drive built to adapt to your specific application rather than force a fixed setup. Rated for 37kW under constant load, it runs on a 3-phase 380–500VAC supply and delivers 51.1kVA of output power with a rated output current of 73A across a 0–400Hz output range — solid capacity for demanding, high-power industrial motor control.

This drive supports both synchronous and asynchronous motors, giving you flexibility in motor selection without needing a different drive family. It comes with an integrated STO (Safe Torque Off) function compliant with EN ISO 13849-1 Performance Level d, plus the standard IPOSplus® positioning and sequence control system — meaning all motion control happens directly within the MOVIDRIVE unit rather than requiring an external motion controller. The drive also includes electronic cam and internal synchronous operation technology functions, giving it real capability for coordinated, multi-axis motion tasks.

What makes commissioning easier here is SEW’s guided parameter-setting approach: rather than complicated custom programming, you enter the parameters your application needs and the drive handles the rest, cutting down on training time and speeding up project startup. At 280 x 522 x 307mm and 27kg, it’s a substantial unit reflecting its higher-power classification, and the modular design supports a wide range of expansion options as your system’s needs grow.
