Overview
The SEW-Eurodrive MOVIDRIVE MDX60A0220-503-4-00 is a 22kW AC inverter drive from the base-version MDX60 line, accepting a 3-phase 380–500VAC input (50–60Hz) at 41.4A and delivering a 46A output current. Power loss at rated output sits at 750W, with a cooling air consumption of 180 m³/h (108 ft³/min), giving you the figures you need for cabinet ventilation planning. At 15kg, it’s a manageable unit for standard control panel installation, built for IP20 indoor use.
Being an MDX60 (rather than MDX61) model means this is the non-expandable base version — a good fit if your application doesn’t require the modular option-card flexibility of the 61 series, and you’d rather have a simpler, more cost-effective drive for a defined task.
Understanding the Model Code
- MDX — MOVIDRIVE® inverter family
- 60 — Basic version (non-expandable); the “61” series supports modular expansion instead
- A — Version A (the “B” series represents the latest generation)
- 0220 — Recommended motor power of 22kW
- 5 — AC 380–500V mains voltage
- 03 — Built-in EMC filter, Class C2
- 3 — Three-phase input
- 4 — Four-quadrant operation with built-in brake chopper and regenerative feedback
- 00 — Standard version (as opposed to “0T” application versions with added electronic cam and synchronous operation functions)
Key Features
- 22kW Power Rating — Suited to higher-power industrial motor control
- Four-Quadrant Operation — Built-in brake chopper with regenerative energy feedback
- Built-In EMC Filter (Class C2) — Reduces electromagnetic interference without external hardware
- Documented Thermal Data — Known power loss and cooling air requirements simplify cabinet design
- IP20 Protection — Suited to standard indoor panel installation
- Base MDX60 Platform — Straightforward, non-expandable design for defined applications
Applications
- Manufacturing — Conveyors, mixers, fans, and pumps
- Logistics & Warehousing — Automated storage systems and hoists
- Precision Processing — Textile tension control, printing registration, metal rolling
- Energy Management — Wind power and photovoltaic system applications
- Building Automation — HVAC, lifts, and ventilation systems
