Rockwell Automation: AC drives

Rockwell Automation has expanded the power range of its Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 755 AC drives to 450 kW/700 Hp, providing users with a convenient roll-out design, increased application flexibility, ease of maintenance, and common control options to help reduce inventory and spare parts.

The roll-out capability allows easy access to the drive for fast installation and maintenance. The drive’s modular design helps simplify replacement of drive components, such as cooling fans, circuit boards and major subassemblies. This modularity also allows the drive’s converter and control pod to remain in the unit while the inverter is rolled out, so control wiring can remain connected. Advanced diagnostic capabilities include indication of blown fuses and blown surge protectors.
