Mitsubishi VFD Drives: A Buyer’s Guide for Pakistan
Choosing the right Mitsubishi drive usually comes down to two things: your motor’s power rating, and how much control precision the application needs. A small compact machine and a large industrial motor don’t belong on the same drive tier — matching the wrong series is one of the most common and costly ordering mistakes. HAT INDUSTRIES helps businesses across Pakistan match the right Mitsubishi VFD to the job and source it through established, authorized channels. We’re not an authorized Mitsubishi Electric distributor or stockist.
FR-D700 Series (Ultra-Compact, Micro Drives)
The entry-level tier — compact, simple to install, and built for small machines where space is tight.
| Part Number | Power | Input |
|---|---|---|
| FR-D720S-008-NA | 1/8 HP (0.1 kW) | 1-phase 200–240V |
| FR-D720S-025-NA | 1/2 HP (0.4 kW) | 1-phase 200–240V |
| FR-D720S-070-NA | 2 HP (1.5 kW) | 1-phase 200–240V |
| FR-D720S-100-NA | 3 HP (2.2 kW) | 1-phase 200–240V |
Best suited to small OEM machines and basic single-motor applications where simplicity matters more than advanced features.
FR-E700 Series (Compact, General-Purpose)
A step up from D700 — more compact-class performance with fuller feature sets, still in a small footprint. Commonly specified for general pump, fan, and conveyor duty on machines up to 20 HP.
FR-A800 Series (High-Performance, Vector Control)
Mitsubishi’s flagship general-purpose drive, using advanced vector control for precise torque and speed regulation. Covers a very wide power range — from small machines to large industrial motors.
| Part Number | Power | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| FR-A820-3.7K-1 | 3.7 kW / 5 HP | 200V class, standard model |
| FR-A840-00023-2-60 | 0.4 kW | 400V class |
| FR-A840-00083-2-60 | 2.2 kW | 400V class |
| FR-A840-00170-2-60 | 5.5 kW | 400V class |
| FR-A840-00380-2-60 | 15 kW | 400V class |
| FR-A840-00620-2-60 | 22 kW | 400V class |
| FR-A840-01160-2-60 | 45 kW | 400V class |
| FR-A840-01800-2-60 | 55 kW | 400V class |
FR-A820 covers 200V-class installations; FR-A840 covers 400V-class installations, which is the more common voltage class for Pakistan’s industrial supply. The A800 series extends well beyond the examples above — share your motor’s kW rating and voltage class, and we’ll help confirm the exact part number.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose between FR-D700, FR-E700, and FR-A800?
FR-D700 suits small, simple machines where space and cost matter most. FR-E700 is a step up for general-purpose pump, fan, and conveyor applications. FR-A800 is worth the investment when you need precise vector control, higher power, or advanced features for a more demanding application.
Should I choose FR-A820 or FR-A840?
This depends on your electrical supply voltage — FR-A820 is built for 200V-class systems, while FR-A840 is built for 400V-class systems. Most industrial installations in Pakistan run on 400V-class supply, making FR-A840 the more commonly specified option, but always confirm against your actual supply voltage.
How do I match the right power rating?
Match the drive’s kW/HP rating to your motor’s nameplate rating, with a small margin for starting current where needed. If you’re unsure, share your motor’s nameplate details and we’ll help confirm the right part number.
Can Mitsubishi FR-A800 drives handle high-precision applications?
Yes — the FR-A800 series uses advanced vector control, making it suitable for applications needing tighter speed and torque regulation than a basic general-purpose drive can provide.
Common Applications
General manufacturing, pumps, fans, conveyors, and packaging machinery across Pakistan.
