Product Overview

The Danfoss VACON NXL00165C5H1SSS0000 is a complete long-reference configuration from the VACON NXL legacy variable frequency drive family. It is designed for three-phase 380-500 VAC industrial motor-control applications and is based on the NXL00165 current rating.

This configuration provides a 16 A fan-and-pump or low-overload current rating and is commonly used with approximately 7.5 kW motors at 400 VAC. For higher-overload machinery, the corresponding rating is approximately 12 A and 5.5 kW.

The C5 configuration is associated with an IP54 or NEMA 12 enclosure. Compared with a related C2 configuration, the drive may have different enclosure protection, cooling, mounting and installation requirements even when the base current rating is identical.

The complete NXL00165C5H1SSS0000 reference should be retained for SEO, quotation and replacement identification. The shortened NXL00165 reference does not fully identify the enclosure, EMC, brake-chopper, hardware or expansion configuration.

Technical Specifications

Compatible System and Applications

The NXL00165C5H1SSS0000 is suitable for established pumps, fans, conveyors, mixers, ventilation systems, escalators and general industrial machinery using compatible three-phase AC motors.

The motor full-load current must remain within the selected low-overload or high-overload rating. The 7.5 kW value alone is not sufficient for selection because actual compatibility also depends on motor current, starting torque, acceleration time, braking demand and ambient conditions.

The IP54 enclosure provides greater environmental protection than related open or IP21 configurations, but cabinet ventilation, cable entry, ambient temperature and cooling clearances must still be reviewed.

Configuration Variants

Related market-verified NXL00165 configurations include:

• NXL00165C2H1SSS0000 — related C2 standard configuration
• NXL00165C2H1SSS00AA — related complete configuration with an AA trailing code
• NXL00165C2T1SSV0000 — related T and SSV special configuration
• NXL00165C2T1SSV00AA — related special configuration with an AA trailing code

These references share the NXL00165 base current rating but may differ in enclosure, EMC treatment, hardware coating, keypad, braking and expansion configuration. They are not automatically interchangeable.

Search and Marketplace Aliases

Marketplace listings may use shortened or reformatted references such as NXL00165C5H1SSS00, NXL00165C5H1SSS and NXL00165-C5H1SSS-0000.

These forms may help identify the product in search results, but the complete original nameplate code must be used for quotation and replacement approval.

Maintenance and Replacement Notes

Before removing the original drive, save the complete parameter set and document the motor data, control method, acceleration and deceleration times, digital inputs, analog references, relay functions, current limits and braking settings.

Confirm the enclosure, frame dimensions, keypad, EMC configuration, brake chopper, firmware and control wiring. A C2 drive should not automatically replace this C5 configuration without reviewing environmental protection and installation requirements.

Used or refurbished units should be checked for cooling-fan operation, DC-bus condition, keypad function, terminal operation and stable output under a suitable motor load.

Related Models

Related VACON NXL base ratings include NXL00125, NXL00235, NXL00315, NXL00385 and NXL00465. Selection must be based on current, duty rating, frame, enclosure and complete long type code rather than power alone.

Inquiry and Supply Notes

Please provide the complete original nameplate, motor data, supply voltage, application duty, enclosure requirement, parameter backup, braking arrangement and control-terminal wiring.

Product condition, firmware, exact configuration, functional testing, regional availability and delivery time must be confirmed before quotation.
