The Allen-Bradley 22B-D024N104 is a PowerFlex 40 series AC drive module designed for demanding industrial applications requiring stable and efficient control of large AC motors up to 15 HP (11 kW). It delivers robust V/Hz scalar control and optional sensorless vector performance, making it suitable for conveyors, compressors, heavy-duty pumps, mixers, and material handling systems where high torque and reliability are essential.
Operating in the 480V AC industrial class, this drive is engineered for continuous-duty environments with strong overload capability and stable torque output across a wide speed range. Its integrated keypad interface, RS-485 communication, and flexible configuration options allow easy integration into PLC-based automation systems or standalone machine control.
This model is officially discontinued (End of Life as of June 30, 2025), with a recommended migration path to the PowerFlex 525 series (25B-D024N104) for new installations and modernization projects.
