Features and Benefits Exceptional Quality Enjoy peace of mind by knowing that you are considering a product from Yaskawa, the factory automation controls company with the highest reputation for quality and reliability. Historically, Yaskawa drives have demonstrated extremely high reliability with an average MTBF (mean time between failure) of 28 years or more. The new 1000 series products take reliability to the next level with a calculated design life that is twice as long as previous generations. Highly Integrated Design results in fewer parts and interconnections, reducing the number of failure...

Easy to Apply and Maintain Features, Benefits and Specifications Whether your applications are simple or complex, the A1000 is supported by user-friendly configuration tools. For local field access, the keypad interface features a multi-language LCD display, parameter storage, and application presets to make programming a simple task. It also has built-in memory for backup purposes. In addition, a USB Copy Unit can be loaded with a drive’s program for convenient portable transfer of configuration between an office environment and the factory floor. Application General-purpose Water Supply Pump...
