Veichi AC10 — compact VFD for pumps, fans and simple drives
AC10 is the smallest drive in the Veichi range. It covers 0.75 to 22 kW and fits in your palm (177×65 mm for the smaller models). We've supplied over 150 units in the last two years — most went to borehole pumps on private properties and small workshop fans.
The main advantage: it runs off a generator without tripping. A built-in kinetic buffer uses the motor's inertia during a voltage dip — the drive doesn't shut down, it just lowers the frequency for a fraction of a second. For farms and sites without a stable grid, that's critical.
What AC10 is good for
- Borehole pumps 0.75–2.2 kW (1ph/220V): the most popular use. Built-in PID holds pressure, sleep mode shuts the pump off once pressure is reached — saving energy and wear. Setup: VFD for a borehole pump.
- Exhaust fans 0.75–7.5 kW: scalar U/f mode, smooth jerk-free start.
- Packaging machines 0.75–4 kW: sensorless vector, 600 Hz max — suits high-speed spindles.
- Woodworking 2.2–7.5 kW: routers, edgebanders — the compact body saves cabinet space.
Comparison with alternatives
| Parameter | Veichi AC10 | Delta VFD-EL | INVT GD10 |
| Power | 0.75–22 kW | 0.2–22 kW | 0.4–15 kW |
| Max frequency | 600 Hz | 400 Hz | 400 Hz |
| Sleep mode (PID) | Yes | No | No |
| Braking unit | Built-in | External | External |
AC10 wins on two things: 600 Hz for high-speed motors and a built-in braking unit (external on Delta and INVT). But if you need CANopen or Profibus — none of AC10, GD10 or VFD-EL have them: then look at the AC310 with expansion cards.
AC10 parameters that save you on commissioning
- Reverse without swapping phases: direction changes in software via F07.05 (units digit = 1 to invert). No need to touch the terminal block. Step by step: motor reverse on Veichi.
- Start from terminals, not the keypad: F01.01=1 moves the RUN command to the control board terminals (then pick 2-/3-wire mode in F05.20), wire the Start button to COM. Remote control.
- External potentiometer: F11.30=1 switches the serial port to an external keypad with a potentiometer (RJ45). While the port is used for the potentiometer, Modbus over RS485 is temporarily unavailable — that's expected. How to connect a potentiometer.
- Auto-restart after a voltage dip: F07.06=1 (on AC10 the range is only 0~1), restart wait time is F07.07 = 0.00–60.00 s. On a generator it keeps the pump running without a manual restart. Auto-restart after E.Lu.
- Braking resistor: for frequent braking the resistance is chosen by power (for 1ph/220V: 0.75 kW ≈200 Ω, 1.5 kW ≈100 Ω, 2.2 kW ≈75 Ω) — this clears the DC-bus overvoltage (E.OU2 on deceleration). Choosing a braking resistor.
When AC10 is NOT the right choice
- Power above 22 kW — you need Veichi AC310 (up to 400 kW)
- Servo, precise positioning — you need a Veichi SD700 servo drive
- Crane, lift, heavy load — Veichi AC70 with STO
- Profibus/CANopen fieldbus — AC310 with expansion cards
Our experience
Motor auto-tuning (parameter F02.07) is probably the handiest feature. It saves about 15 minutes on every commissioning: the drive measures the winding parameters itself, so you don't have to find the nameplate and type values in by hand. On farms with old, undocumented motors that's a lifesaver. The rest of the typical settings are in one place: Veichi basic setup.
