Our partners

SENSORS
Fundamental components for process control, Gefran's sensors measure main variables such as temperature, pressure, position and force. The main element of the sensors is produced in cleanrooms, in environments protected from any kind of pollutant and equipped with highly technological work and control instruments.

COMPONENTS
Three product lines are dedicated to indicating and controlling process variables: static groups, regulators and electronic indicators. A range of constantly evolving devices capable of providing innovative solutions and responding to the needs of process optimisation and intelligent management of energy consumption. These devices complete the range of support services offered and faster delivery times, the key factors that make Gefran a competitive and reliable partner.

AUTOMATION PLATFORMS
Gefran designs and manufactures automation control systems offering machine constructors a wide range of specific components (Unit Control Panels, Operator Interfaces, input/output systems, as well as programmable logic controllers and industrial PLC). This dedicated division also designs and develops solutions that adapt to customer projects, offering unique and exclusive "turnkey" solutions.

MOTION CONTROL
This range of products, designed and manufactured at the Drive and Motion Control Unit of Gefran in Gefrenzano (VA), consists of continuous and alternating current electronic drives and electric motors, including a complete range to fully satisfy the needs of industrial automation. The line also includes a series of inverters for the domestic and industrial photovoltaic industry.

GEFRANSIEI - ADV200 CABINET

got questions?

The ADV200 is a range of panel-mounted inverters designed as a compact, ready-for-use solution fully compatible with the maximum operating conditions of the drive.

During conformance testing, we therefore paid particular attention to ensuring absolute compliance of the panels with all legal requirements.

Savings in terms of installation space and assembly and commissioning times, the guarantee of functionality and certified compliance with legal requirements are the main advantages of the Gefran panel-mounted solution.

Ready to use

Basic

The “Ready to use” version is supplied as a complete panel ready to be installed. It includes the entire power section, from the automatic line circuit breaker to the motor connection bars, all the auxiliary circuits and controls needed to start a single-motor system, all of which are supplied as standard.

In the “Basic” version, the entire power section, from the automatic line circuit breaker to the output bars for connecting the motor, is supplied with the panel as standard. The appropriate auxiliary circuits can be added by the customer as required.

Sizing for low overload currents (Light Duty)

Sizing for high overload currents (High Duty)

Light Duty panels are designed to guarantee the rated current of the motor and an overload of 110% for 60 seconds every 300 seconds.

High Duty panels are designed to guarantee the rated current of the motor and an overload of 150% for 60 seconds every 300 seconds.
