Ideal for applications that demand accurate open-loop speed regulation, the PowerFlex 700H offers high-performance motor control for applications such as fans, pumps, conveyors, mixers, crushers, bark strippers, centrifuges, stamping presses and extruders.
For application flexibility, users can configure the PowerFlex 700H for volts-per-hertz or sensorless vector control.
Standard I/O options include 24 or 115V digital I/O plus analogue I/O for added flexibility.
Pull-apart control terminal blocks simplify the I/O wiring making the drive quick and easy to install.
The modular power structure and standardised packaging allow users to reduce maintenance and stockholding, and as the 700H shares the same operating platform as many other Allen-Bradley products, it provides instant compatibility and reduced training requirements.
Networks, operator interface, programming and communication hardware are common throughout the entire PowerFlex family of AC drives.
Advanced communications allow the user to easily integrate the PowerFlex 700H drive into the manufacturing process using NetLinx communication options, including DeviceNet, ControlNet and EtherNet/IP networks.
Allen-Bradley DriveExecutive and DriveTools SP software tools ease programming, configuration, monitoring and troubleshooting.
Like all products within the PowerFlex family of drives, the 700H meets worldwide power ratings, packaging requirements and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) criteria.
They are CSA/cUL certified, UL listed and CE marked.
