The exciting and special
feature of the E500 is its
‘built-in’ communications.
This drive is one of the first in
the market place to have the
capability to connect to any of
3 open fieldbuses (DeviceNet,
Profibus DP
and
CC-Link) simply by
fitting a plug-in option card. With a 19200 Kbaud
RS 485 serial comms capability as standard,
this allows simple and fast connectivity
to other manufacturers’ equipment in
existing plants.
Connectivity is made even simpler
using Mx500 software. This is Windows-
based software which enables communication
and control between any Mitsubishi 500 Series
inverter, from
setting parameters automatically to
diagnostics functions.
a big appetite for hard work
However, don’t be fooled by the small size – these drives can
tackle the most demanding work load. The flexible, versatile and
communication capabilities of the E500 range offer greater speed
of set up, greater control, and the ability to easily integrate into a huge range of applications – from food to
pharmaceuticals, elevators to HVAC.
Yet again Mitsubishi Electric has produced
a thoroughbred drive with unrivalled performance.
It is not just the functionality of the E500 range that
is amazing, it’s also the way Mitsubishi has packed
it all into such small frame-sizes. Quite simply, this new
breed of compact drives brings you more benefits than ever before.

SPECIFICATIONS
Note: 1. Figures in brackets indicate ratings for variable torque loads (e.g. pump and fan)
2. The rated output capacity indicated assumes that the output voltage is 220V/380V.
3. The overload capacity indicated in % is the ratio of the overload current to the inverter's rated output current.
For repeated duty, allow time for the inverter and motor to return to or below the temperatures under 100% load.
4. The maximum output voltage does not exceed the power supply voltage. The maximum output voltage may be set
as desired below the power supply voltage.
5. The power supply capacity changes with the values of the power supply side inverter impedances (including those
of the input reactor and cables). Use the power supply capacity larger than the indicated
