E-Flex AC Type 3R drives are packaged, outdoor-rated, adjustable speed drive solutions for commercial and industrial HVAC and pump applications. The E-Flex Type 3R drive is well suited for overcrowded mechanical rooms and long conduit runs commonly found in retrofit applications for large HVAC systems. The ability to install E-Flex Type 3R drives on rooftops and other outdoor locations -- rain or shine -- allows users to maximize their energy savings potential by 50% or more. Unique, bottom conduit entry with pre-punched knockouts facilitates installation.

E-Flex Type 3R drives are compatible with Altivar® 58 communication cards, I/O extension cards and operator interface options. Standard HVAC protocols such as LonWorks and Johnson Controls N2 are also available.
