Key Specification
Core Features & Advantages
-
Integrated Converter and Inverter Design: The module's standout feature is its all-in-one design. By incorporating both the converter (AC to DC) and inverter (DC to motor AC) sections in a single chassis, it simplifies system architecture, reduces panel space, and lowers installation costs compared to using separate components .
-
High Performance with Peak Enhancement: Designed for demanding motion applications, the module delivers 30A continuous current and offers a peak current capability of up to 250% on later series (B and C), enabling high torque for acceleration and heavy loads .
-
Built-in Safety and System Integration: The integrated Safe Torque-Off function allows for safe torque removal without disconnecting power, simplifying machine safety compliance . It is designed for seamless integration with Rockwell Automation's Logix platform and requires only a power rail and connector kits for installation .
-
Robust Power Management: The module includes an internal shunt resistor (28.75 Ω) to dissipate regenerative energy from the motor during deceleration, helping to maintain stable DC bus voltage and enabling a reliable, air-cooled, high-efficiency (97%) design .
Typical Applications
The 2094-BC04-M03-S is widely used in high-performance industrial motion control applications , including:
-
Machine Building: Packaging, printing, converting, and textile machines requiring precise multi-axis coordination.
-
Material Handling: Automated conveyor systems, robotics, and palletizers.
-
General Automation: Any application needing coordinated servo control for speed, torque, and position.
FAQ
Q1: What is the 2094-BC04-M03-S, and what is its primary function?
A: The 2094-BC04-M03-S is a 400V-class Integrated Axis Module (IAM) from the Allen-Bradley Kinetix 6000 family . It integrates both a converter (AC to DC) and an inverter (DC to motor AC) in a single book-style chassis, serving as the "front end" for a multi-axis servo system . One shared DC-bus can feed up to eight additional Axis Modules (AM), making it ideal for building high-performance motion systems .
Q2: What are the key power ratings and electrical specifications?
A: The module has the following key specifications :
-
Converter Section Output: 28 kW
-
Inverter Section Output Current: 30 A (peak) / 15 A (continuous)
-
AC Input Voltage: 324-528V rms, 3-phase (360-480V nominal), 47-63 Hz
-
DC Input (Common Bus Follower): 458-747V DC, 41.5 A
-
Efficiency: 97%
-
Internal Shunt: 200 W continuous / 22.5 kW peak, 28.75 Ω resistor
Q3: What is the Peak Enhancement feature, and why is it important?
A: The Peak Enhancement feature allows the drive to deliver up to 200% torque for 2 seconds without oversizing the power supply . This is particularly useful for applications requiring brief bursts of high power, such as indexing and fast quill moves. Note that while the factory default peak current rating is 150% of continuous current, this feature can be enabled in the drive configuration .
Q4: What safety features does the drive include?
A: The 2094-BC04-M03-S includes a built-in Safe Torque-Off (STO) function, which allows for safe torque removal without disconnecting power . This simplifies machine safety compliance and helps reduce system costs by eliminating the need for external safety relays .
Q5: What does the E37 (Input Phase Loss) fault indicate?
A: The E37 fault indicates a loss or severe imbalance in one of the three AC input phases . Causes can include a blown fuse, a faulty contactor, or a wiring issue upstream. To troubleshoot, verify that all three phases are present and balanced at the module's input terminals.
