Danfoss VACON 0100-3L-0072-5 VACON 100 INDUSTRIAL AC Drive 380-500VAC 72A 37kW MR7
Product Overview
The Danfoss VACON 0100-3L-0072-5 is a catalog-listed VACON 100 INDUSTRIAL variable frequency drive base reference for three-phase 380-500 VAC industrial motor systems.
The model provides a continuous low-overload current rating of 72 A and is positioned for approximately 37 kW motor operation at 400 VAC. Its corresponding high-overload rating is approximately 61 A and 30 kW.
The drive uses the MR7 mechanical frame and is available within wall-mounted IP21 or IP54 product configurations. Enclosure, control unit, communication interface and option hardware must be confirmed from the complete factory reference.

Compatible System and Applications
The VACON 0100-3L-0072-5 is suitable for conveyors, compressors, mixers, extruders, process skids, production lines, pumps, fans and other machinery operating within the applicable current and voltage range.
The 37 kW low-overload rating should not be used as the sole selection criterion. High-torque or repeated-overload applications should be evaluated using the 61 A and 30 kW high-overload ratings.
Confirm compatibility with the motor-control method, existing PLC commands, analog and digital signals, communication network, braking equipment and external safety circuits.
Maintenance and Replacement Notes
Verify the complete original ordering code and nameplate before replacement. Drives sharing the VACON 0100-3L-0072-5 base reference may have different enclosure, control, communication and option configurations.
Save the full parameter set and record the motor data, current limits, speed references, ramp times, I/O assignments, fieldbus settings and fault-response logic.
A migration from legacy VACON products requires engineering review of dimensions, cables, overload ratings, control functions and parameter mapping. Direct interchangeability must not be assumed.
