The FR-A8AP is a plug-in encoder feedback and vector control module designed for Mitsubishi Electric’s FR-A800 series inverters. It enables advanced motor control capabilities by integrating encoder signals for precise speed, torque, and position regulation.

 Key Functions

Vector Control: Enables full-scale vector control using motors with encoders

Encoder Feedback: Maintains constant motor speed under load variations

Orientation Control: Supports precise positioning and orientation tasks

Speed/Torque/Position Control: Ideal for applications requiring dynamic response and accuracy

 Technical Highlights

Compatible Inverters: FR-A800 series

Encoder Input Voltage: 5 V (for differential line driver type encoders)

Mounting: Direct plug-in to inverter control board

Wiring: Requires shielded twisted pair cables for encoder connection

Safety: Must be installed before wiring; observe precautions for electric shock prevention
