The Yaskawa CIMR-VC4A0018FAA V1000 AC Drive is a compact current-vector drive that delivers about 7.5 kW (10 HP) of output power for 3-phase 380–480 VAC systems, enabling precise speed and torque control for general-purpose industrial motors, and is designed for a compact footprint suitable for panel installations. As part of the V1000 series, it supports open-loop vector control and V/f control, with an adjustable 0–480 VAC output and 0–400 Hz range, designed for use in conveyors, pumps, fans, HVAC equipment, compressors, and production lines. The unit is IP20, panel-mounted, and fits in the 1/8 to 25 HP series range, offering reliable operation in compact spaces; it provides 150% overload for 60 seconds, helping to handle brief motor demands without tripping. Motor compatibility includes AC induction and permanent magnet motors, and the drive is intended for general-purpose speed and torque control across a broad range of automation tasks. For compatibility and upgrade paths, common replacements include CIMR-VU4A0018FAA, CIMR-AU4A0018FAA, and CIMR-VB4A0018FBA.
