The 1336-BDB-KONE is an Allen-Bradley PCB Gate Drive. It has a voltage rating of 460 Volts AC and gives out 15 Horsepower.  This device is made to be used in adjustable frequency drives. The frame model for this device can be Size A, B, C, D, or E. Operators can use it as a spare part for drives belonging to the PLUS, FORCE, REGEN and IMPACT adjustable frequency AC Drive series. It is activated by the voltages on the frequency drives. Operators should place the 1336-BDB-KONE below the main control board where it will amplify the low input current that is served to it.

In the 1336-BDB-KONE are jumper connectors. These connectors are used when the operator intends to make connections to the main control board and the other boards. In this device, there is a terminal board which aids it with auxiliary inputs. When the operators are installing this board, they need to attach it to the main control mounting plate. After attaching it, they should fasten it with 8 standoff screws which are driven in a quarter clockwise direction. After doing this, the user should connect the wires of the terminal base of the driver to the board and make sure that the jumper connectors are precisely placed in their spots. Operators can complete the installation of this device when they install the mounting plate and the main control board to the circuit board platform of this drive. It is important for the operators of the 1336-BDB-KONE to test it when they replace modules. This should also be done to confirm that it is still viable. Operators may also test it for open conditions found at the third and first fuses. The testing should be done with a test meter that is set at resistance. It can also be tested when the test meter is set to the diode and the meter’s reading matches the standard reading.
