The Allen-Bradley 1397-B050N drive is a non-regenerative DC drive that comes with different logical and programmable functions to provide the best performance while attached to an induction DC motor. This drive comes with a voltage rating of 460 Volts AC and a Horsepower output rating of 50 Horsepower. It is used with a frequency of 50 to 60 Hertz and a tolerance of +/- 2%. The drive has been manufactured and designed by Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation and it is part of the 1397 drive series. The Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 1397-B050N non-regenerative DC drive is designed with an open chassis and this makes it easy for the users to choose a new enclosure. To select an appropriate enclosure, it is recommended to study the conditions of the place where the drive is going to be installed and the kind of uses the drive will have. It is important that the enclosure has enough space to let the drive cool down and ventilate in a firm structure.

The Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 1397-B050N non-regenerative DC drive needs to be installed in a vertical position and installed as near to the motor as possible to avoid power loss. It is also recommended to tighten the connections and check them from time to time since motor vibrations tend to loosen them. The Allen-Bradley/Rockwell Automation 1397-B050N non-regenerative DC drive can operate with a maximum temperature of 55 degrees Celsius, a relative humidity range of 5 to 95%, and in a location with a maximum altitude of 1000 meters (3300 feet) above sea level without derating any of its specifications.
