EVF9325-CVV003 Lenze 9300 Vector Inverter 5.5 kW Cold-Plate Drive

EVF9325-CVV003 Lenze 9300 Vector Frequency Inverter

EVF9325-CVV003 is a three-phase frequency inverter from the Lenze 9300 vector series. It uses a cold-plate mounting design. The suffix C marks the cold-plate build. It gives 150% overload for 60 s. You can choose V/f control or sensorless vector control. It drives a 5.5 kW four-pole asynchronous motor on 3 AC 400 V. The unit has no built-in fan. It needs an external cooler. It is a legacy product with a clear migration path to the i950.

Installation Guide

• Mount the cold-plate body through the panel. The body has no fan.
• Fit an external cooler. Follow the thermal resistance in the official manual.
• Keep the ambient within 0 to +40 °C for full current.
• Derate 2.5% per °C above +40 °C up to +55 °C.
• Wire supply at 3/PE AC 320 to 528 V, 45 to 65 Hz, or 460 to 740 V DC.
• Set the chopper frequency to match your cable length and noise needs.
• Plug any fieldbus module into X1 before you power up.

Commissioning and Maintenance Ease

• Pick V/f for simple pumps and fans. Pick vector for better speed control.
• Adjustable chopper frequency helps you cut motor noise or reduce losses.
• The cold-plate design keeps heat out of the cabinet.
• Pluggable fieldbus modules let you change networks without a new drive.
• No integrated fan means less dust pull and fewer moving parts.

Compatibility Notes

Expert Review

The EVF9325-CVV003 is a solid pick for tight cabinets. The cold-plate body pushes heat to an outside cooler. That keeps the panel cooler. The 150% overload for 60 s handles hard starts. Sensorless vector gives good speed hold without an encoder. The adjustable chopper frequency helps with noise and cable length. The main catch is cooling. You must size the external cooler well. This drive is not a drop-in swap for newer lines. Plan the i950 path if you need long-term support. For existing 9300 vector racks, this unit keeps lines running.

Manager’s Insight

Keep one EVF9325-CVV003 on the shelf for critical cold-plate racks. The legacy status means lead times can grow. The 12-month warranty and 12-24 hour dispatch cut downtime risk. FedEx, UPS and DHL cover most plant sites. Check the external cooler and the AIF module before you order. Ask sales@powergearx.com or +86 18030005825 about stock and the i950 migration plan.

Best Fit Devices and Applications

• Pumps and fans with 5.5 kW async motors on 3 AC 400 V.
• Conveyors that need 150% overload for short peaks.
• Cold-plate cabinets with limited internal airflow.
• Lines that use CAN system bus or pluggable PROFIBUS DP, CANopen or DeviceNet.
• Plants that still run 9300 vector racks and need spares.

FAQ

• Q: Does the drive have a built-in fan?
  A: No. The C suffix means cold-plate design. You must fit an external cooler.
• Q: Can I run full current at 50 °C?
  A: No. Above +40 °C you derate 2.5% per °C. Full current needs 0 to +40 °C.
• Q: How do I add PROFIBUS DP?
  A: Plug a PROFIBUS DP module into the X1 AIF port. No fieldbus is built in as standard.
• Q: Is a same-code replacement available?
  A: No. Lenze lists this code as legacy. The official path is the i950 with a PROFIBUS module or the L_ICIP library.
• Q: What chopper frequency should I start with?
  A: Start at 8 kHz for 13.0 A nominal. Go to 16 kHz only if you need 600 Hz output and accept lower current.

Buying Guide

• Confirm the cold-plate mount and the external cooler size.
• Match motor power at 5.5 kW and 3 AC 400 V.
• Pick the AIF fieldbus module your network needs.
• Check the output frequency you need against the chopper table.
• Plan for legacy support or the i950 migration.
• Ask sales@powergearx.com or +86 18030005825 about warranty, dispatch and courier options.
