Q1: What is the power rating of the 20BC105A0AYNANC0?
The drive has a normal duty rating of 55 kW (75 HP) and a heavy duty rating of 45 kW (60 HP). It delivers 105A continuous output current (116A for 1 minute, 158A for 3 seconds) at 400V AC, 3-phase input.
Q2: What is the significance of the conformal coating on this model?
The conformal coating provides enhanced protection against moisture, dust, and corrosive elements, making this drive suitable for harsh industrial environments such as chemical plants, food processing facilities, and outdoor installations.
Q3: Is this drive still in production?
No. The PowerFlex 700 series was discontinued on November 30, 2023. The recommended replacement is the PowerFlex 755 or PowerFlex 755TS series. The drive remains available through aftermarket suppliers and the used/refurbished market.
Q4: Does this drive include a brake resistor?
No. The 20BC105A0AYNANC0 has a brake IGBT installed, but the drive-mounted brake resistor is not included. For applications requiring dynamic braking, an external brake resistor must be ordered separately.
Q5: What communication options does this drive support?
The drive has no factory-installed communication module but supports optional DPI (Drive Peripheral Interface) communication modules for EtherNet/IP, DeviceNet, ControlNet, PROFIBUS DP, Modbus, and other industrial protocols.
