# AutomationDirect GS23-41P0

Hardware · `GS23-41P0` · verification: source checked

The GS23-41P0 is an enclosed DURApulse GS20 series general-purpose AC variable frequency drive from AutomationDirect. It runs from a 460 VAC three-phase input and produces a three-phase PWM output rated 1 hp at 2.7 A, for use with three-phase induction and permanent magnet AC motors. It provides SVC, V/Hz, FOC and torque control modes, has an RS-485 port for Modbus RTU/ASCII communication, and an integrated dynamic braking circuit.
