The 1336F-BRF30-AE-EN-HCS1 is a variable frequency AC drive that has been manufactured and designed by Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation. This unit has been included in the Allen-Bradley 1336 PLUS II series, and it is a great addition for motor-based systems and for machines that include PLC control. The magic of the 1336F-BRF30-AE-EN-HCS1 is that it is able to control the rotational speed of 3-phase motors by controlling the electrical power (voltage and frequency) that is supplied to the motor. This drive can reach ±0.01% accuracy when generating the output frequency. This means that this drive can change the motor speed very precisely and almost instantaneously, whenever its load or application process calls for a change. The Allen-Bradley 1336F-BRF30-AE-EN-HCS1 features an input voltage range of 380 to 480 Volts AC or of 513 to 620 Volts DC.  Its output current rating is 5.3 Amps, and its output power rating is 3 Horsepower.

The 1336F-BRF30-AE-EN-HCS1 drive can be programmed over its HMI with an analog potentiometer, input and control keys, and an LCD screen with 32 characters of text space. This human-machine interface shows the variables and specifications of the process, alarm messages, and the data related to the current status of the drive. When there is a critical alarm, the drive will warn the users and indicate the necessary corrective actions. The drive is enclosed in an IP20 rated housing that has dimensions of 8.50 inches by 11.42 inches by 8.15 inches (in an A3 frame). Its weight is about 14.8 pounds. The drive has an EMC filtering option. The 1336F-BRF30-AE-EN-HCS1 delivers sensorless vector control, energy conservations, improved process control, reduced manufacturing waste, and longer operating lifespans for motors.
