AutomationDirect DURApulse GS23-21P0

The GS23-21P0 is an enclosed DURApulse GS20 series general-purpose AC variable frequency drive from AutomationDirect. It takes 230 VAC input and produces three-phase output, rated 1 hp with three-phase input or 1/2 hp with single-phase input. It supports SVC, V/Hz, FOC and torque control modes, communicates over an RS-485 port using Modbus RTU or Modbus ASCII, and includes integrated dynamic braking.
