Overview
The Allen-Bradley 22A-D1P4N104 is a compact PowerFlex 4 adjustable frequency AC drive designed for general-purpose motor control applications. This drive operates at 480VAC, 3-Phase and delivers 0.4 kW (0.5 HP) output, making it ideal for small to medium industrial machinery requiring variable speed control. The frame size A construction ensures space-efficient panel mounting, while the IP20 NEMA Type Open enclosure suits standard manufacturing environments.
Key Features
- Dual control modes: Volts/Hertz (V/Hz) and Sensorless Vector Control (SVC) for flexible application requirements
- Integral LED display with fixed digital keypad for straightforward parameter configuration and troubleshooting
- Built-in RS-485 communication for multi-drop network integration and distributed control systems
- “Zero Stacking” capability enables side-by-side mounting to maximize panel space efficiency
- Integrated PID loop controller for standalone process control applications without external controllers
- Removable MOV for ungrounded system compatibility
