# AutomationDirect DURApulse GS4-4125

Hardware · `GS4-4125` · verification: source checked

The GS4-4125 is an open-frame AC variable frequency drive in the AutomationDirect DURApulse GS4 series. It takes a 460 VAC three-phase input and is rated 125 hp with three-phase input, driving three-phase induction motors in either sensorless vector control (SVC) or V/Hz mode. It provides an RS-485 (RJ12) port, analog and discrete I/O, and requires an external dynamic braking unit.
