22A-A8P0N114

The Allen-Bradley 22A-A8P0N114 belongs to the PowerFlex 4 Adjustable AC Drive product family that is manufactured by Allen-Bradley. Adjustable AC frequency drives, sometimes referred to as Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) or Variable Speed Drives (VSD) are primarily used to implement speed regulation using Volts / Hertz or Scalar control with Sensorless Vector performance.

This 22A-A8P0N114 is supplied with an input voltage range of 180 - 265 VAC, 1-Phase and input current of 18.0. It is capable of delivering a 3-Phase, 0-230 VAC voltage output, with Current of 8.0 Amperes, and applicable motor capacity of 1.5 kW or 2.0 HP.

Other unique specifications of the 22A-A8P0N114 includes an integrated keypad, allowing local control and drive parameterization via the embedded buttons such as Escape, Select, Up, Down, Enter, Start, Reverse and Stop buttons. Installed along the keypad or Human Interface Module (HIM) is a Potentiometer, internally connected to the frequency for speed adjustment and regulation.

This adjustable frequency drive is rated IP20/UL Open Type when the top cover is removed and IP30 / NEMA UL Type 1 when top cover and optional conduit box kit is installed. In both cases, the 22A-A8P0N114 is ideally installed within an enclosure that protects the drive from external contaminants such as dirt, dust, grease, corrosive gasses, water and other contaminants.

The embedded I/O channels of the 22A-A8P0N114 is composed of Discrete Input that supports Sink and Source wiring configuration. It also has a single Analog input that is designed to accept 4-20mA or 0 to 10VDC electrical signals. An external potentiometer may also be used as signal reference with range of 1-10k ohms, 2 Watt minimum.

The 22A-A8P0N114 is part of the Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 4 drive series with 240 Volts Power, single-phase, 8 Amps, 1.5 kW, and 2 Horsepower. It comes with an internal CE compliant filter, 5 digital inputs, 1 analog input, and 1 relay output. It has an IP20 (Ingress Protection) against solid objects up to 12 millimeters in size but no protection against liquids. It also has a fixed digital keypad and a LED display and may be connected and operated remotely via the integrated RS-485 communication port. The 22A-A8P0N114 drive is cost-effective with a compact, minimalistic design that significantly reduces panel space and size requirements, contributing to lowered cost of investment. It is designed to meet global OEM standards and it works in machines such as pumps, fans, and conveyors.

The 22A-A8P0N114 comes with a range of features that makes it easy to use, including a panel mount, an IP30 kit, and flange mount drives. An LED panel with an integral keypad makes programming simpler. The MOV can be grounded on ungrounded distribution systems. The 22A-A8P0N114 drive’s integral brake resistors are low cost and dynamic. It provides excellent speed control and high torque level for the whole drive. The 22A-A8P0N114 uses the Logix control platform which simplifies parameter and tag programming which reduces development time.
