LS Electric LSLV0055H100-2CONN(Plus) Inverter VFD Low Voltage Drive

Description

LS Electric LSLV0055H100-2CONN(PLUS) Inverter VFD (H100+ Series)

A 7.5 HP (5.5 kW) H100+ series VFD with 3-phase input and output, optimized for HVAC / pump & fan applications and enhanced with built-in communications and control features.

The Polar Energy Assessment:

The LSLV0055H100-2CONN(PLUS) is a high-capability drive for mid-to-large HVAC systems or pump installations. It supports dual ratings (HD/ND), integrates multiple building automation protocols, and is designed with features like protection, overload tolerance, and advanced pump/fan controls. Because its default enclosure is IP20, it should be installed in a control cabinet or similarly protected environment.

Pros

• Dual duty rating: HD 3.7 kW / ND 5.5 kW allows flexibility in motor selection and load profiles
• Built-in communications: Modbus RTU, LS INV 485, BACnet, LonWorks, Metasys N2; optional: EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP, BACnet/IP

• Overload tolerance: 150% for 1 min (HD), 120% for 1 min (ND)
• Features tuned for fan/pump: flow monitoring, setpoint timeout, wake-up modes, etc.
• Certifications: KC, CE, UL, cUL

Limitations

• External EMC filtering may be necessary in sensitive environments
• Enclosure / protection: standard IP20 (UL Type 1 optional) — vulnerable outside controlled environments
• Performance may require derating at high altitudes

Typical use cases

• Large HVAC systems: central air handlers, large fans, chillers
• Pump systems in building services, water distribution in facilities
• Commercial / institutional buildings requiring integration with BAS systems
• OEMs designing mid-power equipment needing efficient control and communications
• Not ideal for exposed outdoor installations or harsh environments unless enclosed
