TESTIMONIAL:
“The VACON® 50X AC drives were chosen for their high UV
resistance, fully sealed outdoor wash-down rating, and very
good price for our entry level equipment… The competitors have
similar products but none of them could match the requirements
concerning UV and wash-downs as well as the price or ease of use
that the VACON® X Series drive offers.”
