Product Description
VFD-E Series Small-Horsepower Inverter (0.2-11KW)
Note: This product series has been discontinued. Delta recommends the MS300 Series and other alternatives as replacements.
The VFD-E Series is a compact AC motor drive available in single-phase 115V, single-phase 230V, three-phase 230V, and three-phase 460V models, with power ratings from 0.2 to 11KW. Featuring a modular design that supports side-by-side mounting and DIN rail installation, this series offers space-saving solutions with easy maintenance through detachable cooling fans and control panels.
Key Features & Capabilities
Built-in PLC Function
Integrates a programmable logic controller with 350-step program capacity, supporting multiple programming languages including instruction list, ladder diagram, and SFC. Equipped with 45 types of instructions for writing simple automation programs, eliminating the need for external PLCs and reducing system costs.
Advanced Control Modes
Supports V/F open-loop and vector closed-loop control. Utilizes sensorless vector control algorithm to deliver high torque output at low speeds (150% torque at 1Hz) with dynamic torque compensation and automatic motor parameter identification.
Communication & Expansion
Standard RS-485 communication interface with MODBUS protocol support. Compatible with various fieldbus communication modules including DeviceNet, Profibus, LonWorks, and CANopen. Supports flexible expansion of I/O cards, relay cards, PG cards, and other function cards.
Comprehensive Protection
Multiple protection mechanisms including overcurrent, overvoltage, ground fault, overheating, and overload protection. Includes motor overheating protection to ensure continuous operation reliability.
EMI Filter Integration
Single-phase 230V and three-phase 460V models feature built-in EMI filters compliant with EN61800-3 standards, effectively reducing electromagnetic interference in sensitive applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the 3-phase 460V model work with 400V European power systems?
While 400V is within the 380-480V input range, output torque will be reduced by 10-15%. For equipment requiring full torque, we recommend using a step-up transformer from 400V to 460V for optimal performance.
Why does my VFD-E keep tripping overload protection on my treadmill?
Check motor power compatibility and ensure proper ventilation. Clean cooling fans with compressed air and maintain at least 10cm clearance around the inverter for heat dissipation during extended operation.
How can I connect multiple VFD-E inverters to a single PLC?
Use MODBUS RTU via RS-485 with an RS-485 to Ethernet converter. Set unique addresses (1-5) in the parameter menu and control via MODBUS instructions - a cost-effective solution for small factory automation.
What replacement is recommended for discontinued VFD-E models?
Delta's MS300 series provides direct replacement with identical installation dimensions and similar parameter menus. The MS300 offers improved energy efficiency (5% better) and extended 2-year warranty coverage.
Where can I find English manuals for VFD-E inverters?
Download from Delta's global website (www.delta.com.tw) Support section or contact regional technical support (support@delta-emea.com for Europe, support@delta-americas.com for Americas) with your model number.
