The Yaskawa CIMR-VA2A0008FAA is an ultra-compact vector control drive from the V1000 Series, designed for 200V class three-phase input applications requiring precise speed regulation and silent motor control in the smallest power class. Featuring advanced open-loop vector control with 200% starting torque at 0.5Hz, built-in braking transistor, Safe Torque Off (SIL3/PLe) and automatic energy-saving optimization, this fanless micro drive delivers industrial-grade precision across heavy-duty (0.75kW) and normal-duty (1.1kW) dual-rated applications. It is ideally suited for micro conveyors and belt drive systems, compact circulation pumps and ventilation fans, laboratory automation and analytical instruments, medical and diagnostic equipment, precision dosing and metering pumps, compact packaging and labeling machines, and general sub-kilowatt motor automation where silent operation, ultra-compact footprint and proven Yaskawa reliability deliver exceptional value at the entry power level.
Silent Fanless Design — Self-cooling construction with zero fan noise makes this drive ideal for laboratory, medical and cleanroom installations where acoustic performance and maintenance-free operation are critical requirements.
Advanced Micro Vector Control — Full open-loop vector control with auto-tuning delivers 200% starting torque at 0.5Hz, bringing premium drive performance to sub-kilowatt motor applications previously limited to basic V/F inverters.
Dual-Rated Versatility — Supports both Heavy Duty (0.75kW / 5A) and Normal Duty (1.1kW / 6A) motor ratings in a single micro-sized drive, providing application flexibility and inventory reduction for OEM machine builders.
Integrated Safe Torque Off — SIL3/PLe certified dual-channel STO function eliminates external safety relays and contactors, simplifying machine safety architecture even in the most compact machine designs.
Energy-Saving Intelligence — Built-in automatic energy optimization continuously adjusts output voltage to minimize power consumption, achieving significant cost savings in continuously running micro pump and fan applications.
Ultra-Compact Footprint — Side-by-side mounting capability and book-style form factor enable installation in the most space-constrained control panels and direct machine-mounted configurations.
Built-in Braking Transistor — Integrated braking chopper enables rapid motor deceleration and precise positioning for micro positioning and indexing applications without external braking hardware.
Global Market Ready — Full CE, UL/cUL, RoHS and ISO 13849-1 certification with built-in C3 EMC filter and standard RS485 Modbus RTU ensures plug-and-play compliance and connectivity for OEMs exporting to worldwide markets.
