The 1388-AV20 is a DC servo drive controller from Allen Bradley's 1388 series, crafted to provide reliable control in various applications. The device operates with a nominal output voltage of 150 V DC, facilitating precise motion control in servo systems. It is rated for a continuous current of 20 A, accommodating high-demand situations with a peak output current capability reaching 50 A. For reliable operation, the continuous power output is measured at 1.5 kW and can peak at 7.5 kW, ensuring robust performance during peak loads.
This controller's design includes a minimum armature inductance value of 0.5 mH, which is essential for stable operation. It also features an internal brake resistor rated at 1.5 ohms and 100 W, along with an external shunt resistor at 6 ohms and 675 W. The input supply voltage is 120 V AC in a three-phase configuration, supplemented by a control supply of 35.5 V AC C.T., demonstrating its adaptability in various power systems. With a drive efficiency of 85%, the 1388-AV20 minimizes energy losses during operation.
The current limit can be adjusted between 10% to 250% of the rated capacity, providing flexibility in safeguarding the drive against overcurrent issues. The cooling mechanism relies on convection, ensuring the controller operates efficiently within its specified temperature range. The 1388-AV20 is engineered to meet the needs of demanding servo applications, combining durability with precision control.
