Features
Toshiba’s AS3 adjustable speed drive is designed for demanding industrial systems. With an emphasis on built-in communications, end-users can access real-time data and refined controls without the expense of a micro PLC, maximizing system efficiency.
The AS3 provides the flexibility of working with permanent magnet motors. In addition, multi-PID control allows a greater level of precise control of difficult dynamic systems, by controlling booster pumps based on system demand.
Industry 4.0/IoT (Internet of Things) | Industry 4.0 is the evolution of manufacturing, empowering businesses to learn and adjust from data available through connected manufacturing. |
Dual Port EtherNet/IP | Enables simple connection of multiple AS3s together on one network while simplifying cable management. |
Embedded Web Server | Allows for quick access to EtherNet/IP setup, parameters and real-time monitoring for diagnostics. Accessible through standard web browsers on PC, tablets, and smart phones. |
Built-in LCD Display & Advanced Keypad | Multi-language LCD display, remote mounting, IP65 rated, transfer/save parameters, real-time clock for fault logging, and calendar functionality. |
QR Codes | Displayed when troubleshooting faults or alarms, providing immediate access to a dedicated web link for maintenance and support. |
STO Terminal | Detachable terminal strip meets IEC directives for safety with full implementation of Safe Torque Off, which quickly shuts down the system in the event of an emergency stop. |
Permanent Magnet Motor Control | For control of permanent magnet (PM) motors with higher torque and efficiency values. |
Pump Control | Multi-PID control with sleep function and the ability to autonomously control booster pumps based on system demands or operating a secondary PID control loop. |
ASD Pro Software | Toshiba’s programming software, which allows the user to utilize logic-type programming without the expense of a micro PLC. |
