160-BA03PPS1

The Allen-Bradley 160-BA03PPS1 chassis-mounted AC-powered Smart Speed Controller has three-phase input power and it is a member of the 160 series of smart speed controllers. Aside from its 2.3 A output current at maximum, it also has a 1 HP and 0.75 kW three-phase motor power rating and a 40 W power dissipation. Note that this controller also lets the user program its output, particularly its voltage and frequency. The voltage rating of the 160-BA03PPS1 controller is 380 to 460 Volts AC at a line frequency of 50 to 60 Hertz, while its operational input range is from 340 to 506 Volts AC. This smart speed controller also has a 2.2 input kVA and its preset speed control has a total preset frequency of 8, which is set by default. Measuring approximately 6 x 2.83 x 5.4 inches with a weight of 1.98 pounds, the 160-BA03PPS1 should only be placed somewhere without any corrosive substances in its atmosphere. It uses an external heatsink for cooling and its environment must have a temperature between 32 and 122 degrees Fahrenheit or 0 and 50 degrees Celsius during operation and it must have one between -40 and 185 degrees Fahrenheit or -40 and 85 degrees Celsius when in storage. Make sure that the 160-BA03PPS1 is placed at an altitude of 3300 feet or less. Standard to all 160 series controllers are terminal blocks and an indicating panel. With three, in particular, these terminal blocks are for the controller’s control wiring (indicated as TB3), dynamic braking and line power (indicated as TB1), and motor and capacitor module wiring (indicated as TB2). The indicating panel, which is placed on the front of the 160-BA03PPS1 controller, features red/green LED status indicator that shows the controller’s condition.
