ADL500 is WEG's family of variable speed drives designed exclusively for elevator applications. It comprises three models: the ADL510 for low-rise buildings and modernisation projects, the ADL530 for both geared and gearless machines, and the flagship ADL550 with a comprehensive safety package.
The series drives asynchronous and, on the ADL530/ADL550, synchronous lift motors in open or closed loop, with ±0.01% speed accuracy and output frequencies up to 300 Hz. Three-phase 230–480 V (-4), three-phase 200–230 V (-2T) and single-phase 200–230 V (-2M) supply variants cover a power range from 1.1 kW to 45 kW.
An integrated braking unit, Modbus-TCP over RJ45, a USB port (ADL530/ADL550), CANopen Lift (CiA 417) support and wireless commissioning via the WEG Liftouch app make the ADL500 a practical choice for new installations and refurbishments. The drives are developed in line with the EN 81-20 / EN 81-50 lift standards.
Features
Three models, one platform
The ADL510, ADL530 and ADL550 are selected according to low-, mid- and high-rise building profiles.
Wide power and supply range
Three-phase 230–480 V, three-phase 200–230 V and single-phase 200–230 V supplies cover 1.1–45 kW.
Precise speed control
Field-oriented control delivers speed accuracy of ±0.01% of rated motor speed.
Elevator-specific wizards
Guided menus handle setup, start-up, ride-comfort optimisation and troubleshooting.
Connectivity and remote access
Modbus-TCP, CANopen Lift 417 and an optional Wi-Fi module enable monitoring from the WEG Liftouch app.
Emergency operation
UPS, battery and direct 48–96 V DC battery versions support passenger rescue scenarios.
Applications
- Passenger elevators in high-rise buildings
- Residential elevators in low- and mid-rise buildings
- Elevator modernisation projects
- Home lifts (single-phase supply)
- Machine-room-less (MRL) elevator systems
