Procurement snapshot

Only hard product-level facts retained from the cited source route are shown below. A missing buying field is handled separately, rather than estimated from the listed series.

2.3 and 4.16 kV ranges
The section lists 200–2,750 hp at 2.3 kV and 300–12,000 hp at 4.16 kV. [S4]
Additional voltage variants
The family also lists 6.6 kV and 11 kV variants. [S5]

Evidence scope

The retained official product route documents: Yaskawa documents MV1000 as a finished variable-speed drive for medium-voltage motors. This dossier uses that cited route as the editorial scope. [S6]

The retained research coverage separates company identity from the named product evidence. It does not turn one model or series into a claim about unlisted company-wide operations. [S10]

Medium Voltage Vfd

Documented series: Yaskawa MV1000 medium-voltage drive

Yaskawa documents MV1000 as a finished variable-speed drive for medium-voltage motors. [S6]

2.3 and 4.16 kV ranges
The section lists 200–2,750 hp at 2.3 kV and 300–12,000 hp at 4.16 kV. [S4]
Additional voltage variants
The family also lists 6.6 kV and 11 kV variants. [S5]
  • Yaskawa MV1000 medium-voltage drive [S6]

Selection fit: Horsepower, voltage, harmonics, bypass, enclosure and motor compatibility remain variant-specific. [S9]

Servo Motor

Documented series: Yaskawa Sigma-X rotary servo motors

Yaskawa documents Sigma-X as a named family of rotary servo motors. [S7]

Power ranges
The page lists SGMXA motors from 50 W to 7 kW and SGMXG motors from 300 W to 15 kW. [S11]
Inertia classes
The family separates low- and medium-inertia rotary motors for load matching. [S12]
  • Yaskawa Sigma-X rotary servo motors [S7]

Selection fit: Power, inertia, voltage, encoder, speed, torque, washdown suitability and SERVOPACK pairing are model-dependent. [S13]

Vfd

Documented series: Yaskawa GA500 microdrives

Yaskawa documents GA500 as an industrial AC microdrive family. [S8]

Documented specifications for Vfd
Ingress protectionIP00 [S19]
StandardEN13849-1 [S20]
Service temperature-10 °C [S21]
Motor support
GA500 supports induction, permanent-magnet and synchronous-reluctance motors. [S15]
Safety and communications
The page lists SIL 3/PLe, embedded Modbus and IP20 or UL Type 1 mounting. [S16]
  • Yaskawa GA500 microdrives [S8]

Selection fit: Ratings, enclosure, communications and motor-control behavior depend on the selected GA500 model. [S17]

Procurement fit

Each documented category states that key buying fields remain variant-specific. For medium-voltage VFDs, horsepower, voltage, harmonics, bypass, enclosure and motor compatibility are listed as variant-specific. For servo motors, power, inertia, voltage, encoder, speed, torque, washdown suitability and SERVOPACK pairing are model-dependent. For the GA500 microdrive, ratings, enclosure, communications and motor-control behavior depend on the selected model. The profile does not document pricing, lead time, distributor network, or stocking status, so these fields are not publicly documented.

Technical capabilities

The MV1000 medium-voltage drive family documents 200–2,750 hp at 2.3 kV and 300–12,000 hp at 4.16 kV, with additional 6.6 kV and 11 kV variants listed. The Sigma-X rotary servo motor family documents SGMXA motors from 50 W to 7 kW and SGMXG motors from 300 W to 15 kW, separated into low-inertia and medium-inertia classes. The GA500 microdrive documents support for induction, permanent-magnet and synchronous-reluctance motors, SIL 3/PLe, embedded Modbus, and IP20 or UL Type 1 mounting.

Markets and applications

The documented facts do not state specific end markets, industries, or application examples for any of the three product categories. The MV1000 series is described by its voltage and horsepower ranges, the Sigma-X family by its power and inertia classes, and the GA500 by its motor and communication support. No customer references, case studies, or application notes are cited. End-market suitability for any specific industry is therefore absent from the material reviewed.

Evidence limitations

The following commonly required buying fields are not publicly documented: pricing, lead time, minimum order quantity, distributor list, warranty terms, service network, and country-of-origin detail beyond United States. No certification bodies, quality system standards, or third-party approvals are cited. No comparison data, efficiency curves, or environmental ratings beyond IP20 or UL Type 1 for the GA500 are listed. The profile carries no documented corporate history, employee count, or revenue figures.

Editorial summary

Yaskawa America, Inc. is documented as a United States-based manufacturer, with Waukegan listed as the city. Three product categories are documented: medium voltage vfd, servo motor, and vfd. Each category lists a specific series or family. The profile carries no documented company history, founding year, employee count, or revenue figures. Procurement decisions for any of the three categories must therefore rely on the series-level documentation rather than corporate-level claims. Materials as cited describe product families and their parametric ranges without organizational context.

Compiled prose, not a quotation. It restates facts drawn from the cited rows above and adds none of its own. It is not itself a sourced record, so read the cited sections for the authoritative wording.

Not published in retained sources

These common buyer fields were explicitly outside the retained source coverage for this dossier. They are shown as omissions, not filled with a proxy, a related model or an assumption.

Frequently asked questions

What Variable Frequency Drive product is documented for Yaskawa America, Inc.?

The retained product material names Yaskawa MV1000 medium-voltage drive. The dossier keeps this as a product-level statement rather than using it as a claim about the company's entire catalogue. [S6]

Which published 2.3 and 4.16 kv ranges should a buyer compare?

The cited product material records: The section lists 200–2,750 hp at 2.3 kV and 300–12,000 hp at 4.16 kV. Use the value as a product-level comparison point, while keeping the exact model and installation boundaries in the cited route. [S4]

Which published additional voltage variants should a buyer compare?

The cited product material records: The family also lists 6.6 kV and 11 kV variants. Use the value as a product-level comparison point, while keeping the exact model and installation boundaries in the cited route. [S5]

Which common buying fields are not published in the retained sources?

The retained source packet does not publish Annual sales, Availability or stock. Those fields are intentionally left out of the procurement snapshot rather than inferred from a related series, a product image or the company identity. [S10]

Research notes

The retained first-party packet supports a richer product-level reading surface, but it does not yet contain 600 words of distinct cited content. This noindex dossier remains in reviewing status until additional source-backed facts are retained.
