General Purpose Inverter

General Purpose
Inverter E3
Cost-effective, user-friendly industrial
inverters for rugged, reliable control
General Purpose Inverter E3
The E3 range is available with IP20 and IP66 enclosures to suit customer needs. Dust-tight and ready for
washdown, the IP66-rated general purpose inverters can be mounted directly on your processing equipment.
The IP20-rated inverters can be mounted in control cabinets or in machine parts providing the required
protection. The E3 range also features the world’s first fully digital drive for low power single phase motors.
Designed for use with permanent split capacitor (PSC) or shaded pole, single phase induction motors.
