Rockwell Automation Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 527 AC drive

Monday, 18 May, 2015 | Supplied by: Rockwell Automation Australia


The Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 527 AC drive from Rockwell Automation is designed to work exclusively with a Logix-based programmable automation controller (PAC). The drive uses the Rockwell Software Studio 5000 Logix Designer to help simplify machine development and operation.

The drive complements machines using Allen-Bradley CompactLogix, ControlLogix or GuardLogix PACs and Allen-Bradley Kinetix servo drives. It uses embedded instructions shared with Kinetix servo drives, providing the same user experience for configuration, programming and control of both types of drives, helping save engineering time.

The drive also offers a solution for machine applications - such as pumps, fans and in-feed and out-feed conveyors - that need simple speed control for induction motors. The servo drive handles the more precise motor control operations involving speed, torque and position control.

Once programmed, drive configuration files can be transferred to a new machine without line-by-line copying.

The drive uses a standard EtherNet/IP infrastructure and features built-in, dual-port EtherNet/IP functionality. It is available in five frame sizes with power ratings from 0.4 to 22 kW (0.5 to 30 Hp) and global voltage ratings of 100 to 600 V.
