ENEXT e.f-drive.stand 1.5 kW, three-phase 3×380 V input is a common frame size for small pumps and ventilation on three-phase mains. 1.5 kW is the range taken most often for circulation pumps, supply/exhaust fans and small process equipment.
Control is scalar V/F or sensorless vector (SVC), with an output frequency range of 0–999.9 Hz (for standard induction motors the practical setting is around 400 Hz). The manufacturer states 150% overload for 1 min (and 180% for 5 s) — enough for a typical start. The built-in PID holds pressure or flow, and RS485 Modbus RTU links the drive into the automation system. The enclosure is IP20.
Confirm braking and the EMC filter by version. As an alternative with proven documentation, consider Veichi AC10.
ENEXT e.f-drive.stand — entry-level VFD 0.7–5.5 kW with single- and three-phase input
e.f-drive.stand is the entry-level frequency-inverter line from the Ukrainian brand E.NEXT, sitting below e.f-drive.pro. These are compact drives from 0.7 to 5.5 kW for simple everyday jobs — pump, fan, conveyor, small production equipment. The series' main advantage over PRO is that it includes single-phase 1×220 V models (3×220 V output to the motor), so it is used where the site has no three-phase mains: a borehole, a workshop, a small boiler room. It is convenient for installers who already build their switchgear from E.NEXT and want one supplier with a dealer network across Ukraine.
How stand differs from PRO
By control type the two series are close — both offer scalar V/F and sensorless vector control (SVC, no feedback). The difference is mostly in positioning and packaging: stand is an affordable drive for typical V/F duties and pumps, with a compact I/O set, while PRO targets a wider power range (up to 220 kW) and more demanding industrial use. If you need only 3×380 V above 5.5 kW, that is already PRO territory.
What the series can do
- Supply: single-phase 1×220 V (3×220 V output to the motor) and three-phase 3×380 V, depending on the part number.
- Control: scalar V/F + sensorless vector (SVC). The output frequency range is 0–999.9 Hz (for standard induction motors the practical setting is around 400 Hz).
- Overload: the manufacturer states 110% continuous, 150% for 1 min and 180% for 5 s.
- Pump functions: built-in PID controller, minimum/maximum pressure control, empty-pipe filling, additional-pump connection — handy for water supply without a separate controller.
- Communication: built-in RS485 with Modbus RTU — direct link to a PLC or SCADA.
- I/O: 5 digital inputs, 1 analog input (0…10 V / 0…20 mA), an open-collector output, a relay output and an analog output.
- Enclosure: IP20 — cabinet-mount design.
- Standards: compliant with EN 61800-3 and EN 61800-5-1.
Braking and EMC — confirm by version
According to dealers, on these frame sizes the manufacturer states a built-in braking unit (chopper); the braking resistor is sized separately in any case to match the stopping dynamics. For the EMC filter on the stand line the data is inconsistent: individual part-number pages do not list a built-in filter, so plan an external filter for EMC compliance and confirm the part number when ordering. It is better to verify both points with us before buying than to assume them from a picture.
Typical applications
- Pumps and water supply: the built-in PID holds pressure, with dry-run protection via pressure monitoring — single-phase models go on borehole and surface pumps without 380 V.
- HVAC ventilation: soft start and fan speed control.
- Conveyors and simple production equipment: V/F control with moderate overload for a typical start.
How it compares with our core series
| Parameter | ENEXT FDRIVE STAND | Veichi AC10 | Veichi AC310 |
|---|
| Supply | 1×220 / 3×380 V | 1×220 / 3×380 V | 3×380 V |
| Range | 0.7–5.5 kW | compact jobs | wider, water-utility focus |
| Control | V/F + SVC | V/F + SVC | SVC + V/F |
| Modbus RTU | yes | yes | yes |
Honestly, in class and feature set stand is close to Veichi AC10 in the same range — both have a single-phase supply and suit simple pump and ventilation jobs. We fit AC10 more often thanks to its proven support and documentation; ENEXT stand is a sensible choice when a single E.NEXT switchgear ecosystem matters. If the job is above 5.5 kW or 3×380 only, see FDRIVE PRO or AC310.
When stand is NOT the right fit
- Power above 5.5 kW — the series ends there, take PRO or AC310.
- Closed-loop vector with an encoder for high-precision positioning — not the series profile (this is open-loop SVC).
- If a confirmed industrial fieldbus (Profibus/EtherCAT) is critical — it is not available here, only Modbus RTU over RS485.
Our experience
e.f-drive.stand sees steady demand from E.NEXT installers, most often the single-phase models on borehole pumps. Before ordering we always confirm the mains type (1-phase or 3-phase), the motor power and whether a braking resistor is needed. If you are torn between stand and our Veichi series, we will advise for your task.
