At GfA, we’re always looking for ways to make industrial door operation faster, smarter, and more reliable. Building on the proven success of our FI drive range, we are excited to announce the launch of the new FX drive range.
The FX range delivers all the familiar benefits of our FI drives. High-speed opening and closing, soft-start/soft-stop technology, and plug-and-play installation with our TS Control Panels, but with one key innovation: a separate frequency inverter module that gives you more flexibility in how and where you install your drives.
FX...Delivering the Familiar Benefits of FI
High-Speed Performance
-
Rapid opening and closing ensures efficiency of traffic and people flow.
-
Helps with energy savings by cutting heat loss or gain.
Smooth and Reliable Operation
-
Soft-start and soft-stop extend the life of the drive and door mechanism.
-
Reduced operational noise makes it ideal for offices, apartment blocks, and other noise-sensitive environments.
Simple Installation & Set-up
-
Plug-and-play connection using our standard DES cables.
-
Pre-assembled plug-in cable (2m as standard) between the inverter module and drive.
-
Easily dial-in the actual output speed required, without risk of overspeeding the drive.
Full Compatibility with GfA Control Panels
-
Works seamlessly with our TS Control Panel range - TS 970, 971, 981, inlcuding XL variants.
-
If your engineers already know our control panels, setting up an FX will feel instantly familiar.
The FX Difference
The separate frequency inverter module is what sets FX apart:
- Perfect for installations where drive space is limited.
-
Flexible positioning allows you to place the module in the most practical location.
Applications
The FX range is designed for roller shutters and sectional overhead doors, making it an ideal solution for:
-
Car Parks – quiet operation where noise is a concern or there is limited head/side room.
-
Waste Transfer Sites – or other challenging environments where durability is key.
-
Limited Space – flexibility where head or side room is restricted.
