Cost effective yet powerful micro drive
According to Rockwell Automation, the Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 4 provides cost-effective powerful speed control for single- and three-phase AC motors from 0.2 to 3.7kW. This newest, small and low cost member of the PowerFlex family provides most of the benefits of its larger relations for panel builders and OEMs requiring accurate speed control in applications such as machine tools, fans, pumps and materials handling. The PowerFlex 4's compact design uses advanced heat sink and IGBT technology to minimise size, a zero stacking feature allows drives to be mounted side by side with no gaps, while commonality with other products in the range ensures familiarity for existing PowerFlex users.
For ease of installation and use, the PowerFlex 4 includes an integral keypad with local potentiometer, while the quick start feature provides fast start up.
There is easy access to the terminal block, and an integral RS485 port allows the use of Allen-Bradley DriveExplorer and DriveExecutive configuration software.
A range of configuration options make the PowerFlex 4 amazingly flexible.
Available in an IP20-rated package that can be DIN-rail or panel mounted, further options include an IP30/Nema 1 kit and plate drive or chassis mount configuration.
An integral filter version is also available for single-phase applications, further reducing the drive's footprint while still complying with EMC requirements.
OEMs exporting their machines around the world have the reassurance that the PowerFlex 4 meets worldwide power ratings, packaging requirements and electromagnetic compatibility - like all PowerFlex products, it is CSA/cUL Certified, UL-Listed, C-Tick and CE Marked.
Rockwell Automation is also able to offer the PowerFlex 4 preconfigured with a range of software, operator interfaces and power options.
This service allows the drive to be specified to meet the precise requirements of the application, further reducing the time required for installation and setup.
The Allen-Bradley PowerFlex family of advanced AC drives now covers the power range 0.2 to 3000kW.
All drives in the range share operator interfaces, programming and networking ability, giving a common look and feel, and enabling users and installers to program and run any PowerFlex drive with confidence.
