The 25A-A2P5N114 by Allen-Bradley is part of the next generation of flexible control and powerful performance: the PowerFlex 520-Series AC Drives. This series of drives provides innovative motor control solutions that maximize system performance while reducing design time for better machines. Constructed in a modular design with common power and control modules, the installation and configuration of this module are quick and easy, while its spare parts inventory is reduced. This specific model is ideal for applications and machines that require cost-effective motor control.

The 25A-A2P5N114 PowerFlex 523 Drive has an output rating of 0.4 kW (0.5 HP), with 2.5 Amps for both normal and heavy-duty operation. Its single-phase input with 200 to 240 Volts range is rated at 1.7 kVA with a maximum current of 6.5 Amps. It comes with an EMC filter and an "A" frame size. An "HIM" configuration option is available via the built-in five-digit, 16-segment LCD display of its Human Interface module with scrolling descriptive text. The integral keypad can be used to quickly configure speed and navigate menus. Online and offline programming can be done using the Connected Components Workbench Software. Plus, apps and configurations can be uploaded or downloaded using a USB connection.

Another feature of the 25A-A2P5N114 AC Drive is its seamless connectivity which allows the flow of real-time information. This helps improve productivity and agility of machine operation, both saving time and increasing efficiency. The integral RS485/DSI allows communication within a multi-drop network configuration. A dual port EtherNet/IP card can be used as an optional method to support DLR (Device Level Ring) topologies. Other optional communication cards that can improve machine performance and provide fault-tolerant connectivity include both DeviceNet and PROFIBUS DP.

The 25A-A2P5N114 offers a variety of motor control options including Sensorless Vector Control (SVC) and Volts per Hertz (V/Hz). It has one PID loop and features PointStop positioning control that stops motor load steadily without encoder feedback. It is also optimized for Shared DC Bus or Common DC Bus installations.
