£84,213.60
The Danfoss 137U8144 is a high-performance AC variable frequency drive (VFD) from the advanced Danfoss iC7-Automation Enclosed Drive series, designed for demanding industrial motor control applications. Built as an enclosed, air-cooled drive solution, it provides reliable speed regulation, improved power quality and robust operation for modern automation and process systems.
The iC7-Automation platform is developed for industrial environments where power quality, connectivity and dependable motor control are essential. This model features a low-harmonic drive configuration, integrated Modbus TCP communication, coated boards, functional safety capability and a practical IP21 / UL Type 1 enclosure for protected industrial installations.
With a rated current of 820 A and a three-phase 380–500 V AC supply, the Danfoss 137U8144 is suitable for large motors used in conveyors, pumps, fans, compressors, process machinery and heavy-duty automation systems. Its enclosed construction supports straightforward installation while maintaining strong operational reliability in demanding applications.
Variable frequency drives such as the Danfoss 137U8144 regulate motor speed by adjusting output frequency and voltage. This helps improve process control, reduce mechanical stress and optimise energy consumption across large industrial machines and production systems.
The iC7-Automation enclosed drive platform is suited to applications where power quality, connectivity and reliability are important. Its low-harmonic design helps reduce mains distortion, while integrated Modbus TCP communication supports smooth connection with PLCs and wider automation networks.
