Who Is Danfoss?

Danfoss is a global manufacturer of AC drive technology, motion control, and automation solutions used across industrial, commercial, and HVAC systems. Danfoss products are known for energy efficiency, advanced control capabilities, and long-term reliability. Danfoss’s drive portfolio includes VLT®, VACON®, iC7, iC2, and legacy drive lines. Danfoss states that Vacon became part of the Danfoss Group effective December 1, 2014.

Danfoss Drives We Service

Control Concepts services and supports a wide range of Danfoss motor control products, including both current production and legacy equipment.

We service:

  • AC drives
  • Industry-specific AC drives
  • Machinery AC drives
  • Soft starters
  • Control boards and industrial electronics

Danfoss does not manufacture DC drives. Legacy DC drive products associated with former Danfoss lines may exist under other brands and are not serviced as Danfoss equipment.

Communication Protocols & System Integration

Danfoss AC drives are designed to integrate with building automation systems, PLC platforms, and industrial control networks using standard communication protocols.

HVAC Communication Protocols

  • LonWorks
  • BACnet

Industrial Communication Protocols

Danfoss drives are commonly used in applications requiring accurate control, consistent output, and reduced energy consumption.

  • PROFIBUS

  • PROFIBUS DP

  • PROFINET

  • CANopen

  • DeviceNet

  • EtherNet/IP

  • EtherCAT

  • POWERLINK

  • Modbus

  • Modbus TCP

These communication options allow Danfoss drives to integrate reliably into both building management systems and complex industrial control architectures.

Energy Efficiency and Control Features

Danfoss AC drives are engineered to improve efficiency and system reliability. In HVAC and industrial environments, these drives continuously adjust operating conditions based on demand, helping reduce energy use and mechanical wear.

Many models include features such as:

  • Built-in PID controllers for independent process control
  • Sleep Mode functions that shut motors down during no-demand conditions
  • Adaptive control algorithms that optimize performance across varying loads

Control Concepts provides 24/7 service and support on Danfoss products.

Common Danfoss Drive Issues

Some common Danfoss drive issues we address include:

  • Drive does not run the motor
  • Blown fuses or tripped breakers
  • Loose or damaged connections
  • Non-functional cooling fans
  • Software or programming problems
  • Circuit board failures

The Control Concepts Repair Process

Inspection

We inspect the drive, control boards, terminals, and power connections for damage caused by heat cycling, vibration, contamination, or improper torque practices.

Electrical Testing

We perform diode and IGBT testing on input and output power sections, along with control circuit checks, before applying power.

Controlled Power-Up

The unit is powered up gradually while monitoring voltage, current draw, and output frequency until rated input voltage is reached.

Functional Testing

We back up existing parameters and test the drive through basic jog and operational functions, verifying output, motor rotation, and communication performance.

Final Verification

Each Danfoss drive or electronic component is fully tested to confirm proper operation before returning it to service.

Preventive Maintenance Recommendations

To reduce failures and extend equipment life, we recommend:

Keeping drives and control equipment free of dust and debris

Dust buildup can trap heat and interfere with cooling and internal components.

Ensuring proper ventilation

Adequate airflow helps prevent overheating and supports reliable drive operation.

Keeping equipment dry and protected from moisture

Moisture can damage electrical components and lead to shorts, corrosion, or premature failure.

Inspecting terminals and connections regularly

Routine checks can help identify loose or heat-damaged connections before they cause downtime.

Scheduling periodic testing and inspection

Regular inspection of power sections, wiring, and operating condition can help catch problems early and reduce unexpected failures.

Preventive maintenance plays a key role in reducing unplanned downtime and extending equipment life.
