Drive offers integrated speed monitoring

13 November 2008

The PowerFlex 755 AC drive from Rockwell, provides complete control of motor speed, torque and position to help increase system throughput and efficiency. The PowerFlex 755 AC drive offers power versatility from 7.5 to 250 kW or 10 to 350 hp at 400/480V AC and 540/650V DC input. It meets global standards and certifications, and supports multiple languages.

The PowerFlex 755 AC drive offers customers more versatility in motor control and supporting control hardware options than any other drive in its class. DeviceLogix embedded in the drive combines inputs and/or outputs and local logic functions to determine the drive’s behavior. Embedded Ethernet allows customers to easily configure, control and collect drive data over EtherNet/IP networks.
The drive minimises downtime with functionality that gives users the ability to configure the drive to provide advanced notification of operating data for drive cooling fans, I/O relay cycles, motor run time hours and advanced warning of potential faults.

Safety options, that include Safe Torque-Off and Safe Speed Monitoring, embedded into the drive, help customers reduce overall system costs while helping to protect personnel and equipment and improve productivity.

The PowerFlex 755 is designed with a slot based mechanical architecture allowing customers, to “build” the drive with as few or as many options for I/O, feedback, safety, communications, and auxiliary control power as their application requires.
