VACON NXP00165-A2H1SSV-A1A2000000 is a 16 Amp Vector Control Drive,a wall-mounted 3 Phase AC Drive from the NXP series for 380–500 V induction and permanent magnet motors.It delivers 5.5–7.5 kW output with an integrated brake chopper,IP21/NEMA1 enclosure,and IEC 61800-3 EMC compliance.Suited for crane control,winding,extrusion,and heavy-duty mixing applications.
What Is a 3 Phase AC Drive?
A 3 Phase AC Drive rectifies three-phase AC mains voltage into a DC-link voltage,which is inverted back to variable voltage,variable frequency three-phase AC for controlling the speed and torque of AC induction or permanent magnet motors.Modern drives are categorized by control algorithms(scalar,sensorless vector,closed-loop vector),and high-performance Vector Control variants deliver precise speed and torque regulation.

The VACON NXP is a high-performance AC drive platform providing open-loop and closed-loop vector control for demanding single-motor and multi-motor applications.It supports induction and permanent magnet motors with a modular hardware architecture that accommodates five plug-in expansion slots for I/O,fieldbus,and functional safety boards.

Technical Highlights
Closed-loop vector control achieves speed error below 0.01%(encoder-dependent).The NXP applies dynamic vector control with and without feedback,delivering full torque from zero speed and enabling high-performance applications such as crane hoist and extrusion control where speed regulation accuracy is critical.
Integrated brake chopper eliminates the need for an external braking unit.The internal chopper handles regenerative energy dissipation directly,reducing panel space and wiring for applications involving frequent deceleration,lowering,or overhauling loads.
Five plug-in expansion slots enable modular customization.Users install additional I/O boards,fieldbus interfaces(PROFIBUS,PROFINET,EtherNet/IP,Modbus TCP),or functional safety boards without increasing enclosure dimensions,preserving investment flexibility and reducing system complexity.
Coated circuit boards extend service life in harsh atmospheres.All PCBs feature conformal coating as standard,providing protection against conductive dust,airborne moisture,and mild chemical vapors.This design decision addresses the question:Can VACON NXP drives survive in dusty cement plants or high-humidity textile mills—and the answer is yes,with proven reliability in those environments.
Multi-language firmware support for global deployment.The firmware language package includes UK English,French,Italian,Spanish,and Portuguese,reducing commissioning time for multinational OEMs and end users across Western European markets.
Applications
Crane and hoist control:Closed-loop vector torque control at zero speed with full-load holding capability eliminates mechanical load brakes for overhauling loads.Torque proving occurs before mechanical brake release,preventing load drop on start.
Winding and unwinding machinery:Precise torque regulation with encoder feedback maintains consistent web tension during diameter changes in paper,film,and textile processing lines.The 0.01%speed accuracy minimizes material waste from tension variation.
Screw and piston extruders:High starting torque(200%overload capacity per NXP series rating)overcomes high breakaway friction of cold polymer material.Closed-loop control sustains stable throughput regardless of pressure fluctuations at the die.
Heavy-duty mixers and centrifuges:200%overload capability handles process viscosity peaks during batch mixing cycles.The integrated brake chopper provides rapid controlled deceleration of high-inertia loads without tripping on DC-bus overvoltage.
Synchronization of multiple conveyors:DriveSynch functionality enables master-follower configurations with speed and angle synchronization across multiple NXP drives,maintaining precise product positioning between sequential conveyor sections.
Test stands and dynamometers:Full four-quadrant operation supports motoring and generating modes with closed-loop torque control for motor testing,gearbox endurance testing,and engine simulation requiring high dynamic response.
Selection Guidance
Suitable applications:
Processes requiring closed-loop vector performance with speed accuracy requirements of 0.01%or better,such as precision winding,extrusion,or crane hoist control
Installations where an integrated brake chopper eliminates the need for an external braking unit,reducing panel footprint and component count
Environments with airborne dust,moisture,or mild chemical exposure where conformally coated boards provide extended service life
Not recommended for:
Basic pump,fan,or simple conveyor applications that require only scalar or sensorless vector control.Select the VACON NXS series instead—identical power ratings(e.g.,NXS00165),same frame size,lower cost,and adequate performance for variable-torque and simple constant-torque applications.
High-IP washdown environments requiring IP54 or IP66 enclosures.This IP21 unit is intended for indoor control panel mounting.For hose-down or outdoor applications,select a VACON NXP model with at least IP54 enclosure rating.
Power requirements exceeding 5.5 kW(heavy duty).This frame size 05 unit is limited to 16 A nominal output.For higher power motors,select a larger NXP frame size matched to the motor full-load amperage.
