The Danfoss VACON NXL00315C5H1SSS0000 is an IP54 complete long-reference configuration from the VACON NXL legacy variable frequency drive range.
The drive is intended for three-phase 380-500 VAC systems and provides a 31 A low-overload rating. At 400 VAC, it is commonly positioned for approximately 15 kW fan-and-pump operation or approximately 11 kW high-overload operation at 23 A.
This model uses the MF5 frame and combines the NXL00315 base rating with a C5 protected-enclosure configuration. It should be listed separately from NXL00315C2H1SSS0000 because the enclosure and installation conditions differ.

The NXL00315C5H1SSS0000 is suitable for industrial pumps, fans, conveyors, mixers, process skids and production equipment within the applicable current and overload range.
Motor selection must be based on the motor nameplate current and actual duty cycle. High starting torque, rapid acceleration and repeated overloads may require the high-duty rating rather than the higher 15 kW fan-and-pump figure.
The protected enclosure can be relevant to elevator machine rooms, industrial production areas and installations where an IP21 configuration would not provide sufficient environmental protection.
Related configurations found in the market include:
The C3 reference should only be used as a formal product model when the complete slot code and actual installed board can be confirmed from a nameplate or original documentation.
Common shortened forms include NXL00315C5H1SSS00, NXL00315C5H1SSS and NXL00315-C5H1SSS-0000.
These aliases may be incorporated for search coverage, but the Model field should retain NXL00315C5H1SSS0000.
Save the complete parameter set before removing the drive. Document motor data, speed references, acceleration and deceleration times, current limits, process feedback, digital-input logic and relay functions.
Confirm IP54 construction, frame dimensions, EMC filtering, brake-chopper configuration, keypad, firmware and control-terminal layout.
Used and refurbished drives should be load-tested. A unit that powers up without a motor may still have faults in the DC bus, inverter power stage or current measurement circuitry.
Related VACON NXL ratings include NXL00235, NXL00385, NXL00465 and NXL00615. These models differ in current, power, frame and overload capability.
Please provide the complete type code, drive nameplate, motor nameplate, supply voltage, load type, IP requirement, braking information and parameter backup.
Exact configuration, hardware revision, firmware, functional testing, regional availability and delivery time must be confirmed before quotation.
