160-AA12NSF1P1

The 160-AA12NSF1P1,  manufactured by Allen Bradley, is a Smart motor controller that belongs in the 160 series of Allen-Bradley motor controllers. The 160-AA12NSF1P1, in particular, is an analog signal follower model with programmer feature. The 160-AA12NSF1P1 has a 2.2 kW or 3 HP power output and an output current of 12 Amps. It operates on a 3-phase input voltage of 180 to 265 Volts, at 50 to 60 Hertz. This module also requires an input power of 7.1kVA. The dynamic braking torque for the 160-AA12NSF1P1 is 50% without an external resistor, although it increases to 115% with the addition of an external resistor. The 160-AA12NSF1P1 also has an average power dissipation of 107 Watts when kept in the open type IP20 enclosure. The 160-AA12NSF1P1 has an adjustable output voltage in a range of 0 to 180/265 Volts; additionally, the output frequency can also be customized and programmed. The efficiency of the 160-AA12NSF1P1 is 97.5% and it has a transient protection of 6kV

This controller also comes with certain protection features, such as overcurrent protection, undervoltage protection, and overvoltage protection. It can also detect excessive temperatures, and the module’s sensor will shut down if the temperature exceeds 95 degrees Celsius. The recommended operating temperature for the 160-AA12NSF1P1 is 0 to 50 degrees C. The analog input impedance for the 160-AA12NSF1P1 is 250 Ohms, while the external speed potentiometer resistance is 1k to 10k ohms. This unit also features a PI control, where setting 9 provides the PI control and the setting 8 provides 4 preset speeds and 2 acceleration and deceleration times. This module’s DC injection braking system applies a DC voltage to the motor for a time period of 0 to 25 seconds.
