The 1395-B74-C2-P11 from Allen Bradley is a digital DC drive, operating on 460 Volts and using a discrete adapter of 24 Volts, depending upon the type of port used (in this case it is an A-type port). It has regenerated input, which is used for a variety of applications such as process control, cranes and other powerful devices; it uses a standard contactor and has a Horsepower of 60. There are a variety of programmable instructions that can be fed into the drive through various commands, as per the requirement of the application it is being applied to.

Some of the features include preset functions, jog, run, and tach loss recovery. The 1395-B74-C2-P11 module is preferred because of its easy functions, its precision, its configuration flexibility, and its support for both analog and digital signals. This unit’s integrated digital display is beneficial for knowing the current status the drive is running in. It is tried and tested under a NEMA Type 1 enclosure and is verified by NFPA for safety under fire hazards.

This part number uses a closed loop feedback system with 6:1 programmable speed sets. The number of inputs or outputs can also be adjusted for need, and the same can be seen on a remote desktop interface through various communications mediums such as USB or Ethernet. The inbuilt standard contactor helps to trigger the drive from a low voltage, thus adding to the safety of the personnel operating the machinery. Operating modes such as master or follower can be changed at the input of the command. The desired RPM rate can be adjusted by the use of push buttons that are smoothly integrated into the drive.
