LS Electric LSLV0001M100-1EOFNA Inverter VFD Low Voltage Drive

Description

LS Electric — LSLV0001M100-1EOFNA (M100 series)

Inverter/VFD – Micro (M100 Series) – 0.1 kW (≈1/8 HP)

Compact micro VFD from LS Electric’s M100 family; these models come with built-in EMC filter and DB unit. Best use case for cases where footprint, simplicity, and OEM integration matters.

The Polar Energy Assessment:

Single-phase 230 V input inverter designed for operating small three-phase motors ranging from 100 W to 2.2 kW. Ideal for compact fans, pumps, and geared motors, it features integrated motor overload protection and standard DC injection braking. Comes equipped with a built-in C2 EMC filter, user-friendly layout, DIN-rail mounting capability, and side-by-side installation support. Offers easy connectivity via RJ45 for Modbus, Smart Copier, Remote Keypad, and DriveView 7. Complies with UL 61800-5-1 design standards, includes an enhanced isolation circuit, a built-in braking (DB) unit for models ≥ 1.5 kW, and Modbus support in the Advanced I/O configuration.

Pros

• Extremely compact: DIN-rail or panel mounting saves space in tight control cabinets.
• Built-in EMC filter (C2) reduces the need for external filtering in many installs.
• Simple keypad and quick-menu make basic setup fast (good for OEMs and field techs who don’t want nightmares).
• Supports Modbus/RS-485 communications for basic PLC/HMI integration (when you need remote control/monitoring).

Cons / trade-offs

• Limited to light-duty motor sizes (0.1 kW for this model); not for continuous high-torque or large horsepower applications.
• IP20 only; needs protection from dust/wet environments; not suitable for outdoor locations without an enclosure.
• No Safe Torque Off (STO) on the micro models (verify safety requirements for your application). Check the series options if you need functional safety.

Typical use cases

• Small conveyors, agitators, fans and pumps in OEM equipment.
• Laboratory or test rigs where space is tight and single-phase supply is the only option.
• Retrofits that need 3-phase motor control but only have single-phase power available.
