IP20, per DURApulse AC Micro Drive: 230 VAC, 1hp with 1-phase input, (VFD) (PN# GS11N-21P0) | AutomationDirect (automationdirect.com).

AutomationDirect DURApulse GS11N-21P0

The GS11N-21P0 is an enclosed DURApulse GS10 series AC micro variable frequency drive. It takes single-phase 230 VAC input and produces three-phase 230 VAC output for 3-phase induction and permanent magnet AC motors, rated 1 hp with 1-phase input. It runs in SVC or V/Hz control mode and provides an RS-485 port for Modbus RTU/ASCII slave communication plus integrated dynamic braking.
