Allen Bradley 20AD2P1A0AYNANC0 PowerFlex 70 AC Drive

Applications

The Allen-Bradley 20AD2P1A0AYNANC0 PowerFlex 70 AC Drive is a compact adjustable-frequency drive designed for industrial three-phase motor control. With a 1 HP (0.75 kW) normal-duty rating and a 2.1 A continuous output current, it is suitable for smaller machinery and automated equipment requiring variable-speed operation.

Typical applications include:

• Small industrial conveyor systems

• Packaging and production machinery

• Pumps and fluid circulation equipment

• Industrial fans and ventilation systems

• Material handling equipment

• General-purpose machine automation

Its enhanced control configuration provides flexible motor-control capabilities for integration into industrial automation systems.

Advantages and Key Features

• Compact motor control: Provides a 1 HP (0.75 kW) normal-duty rating for smaller industrial motor applications.

• 480V three-phase input: Designed for industrial power systems using a compatible 480V AC supply.

• Enhanced control: Includes enhanced control with 24V I/O for configurable control and signal integration.

• Integrated braking IGBT: Supports connection of a compatible external braking resistor when dynamic braking is required.

• EMC filtering: Includes a second-environment filter configuration for electromagnetic compatibility.

• Conformal-coated electronics: Provides additional protection for electronic components in industrial environments.

• Panel-mount installation: Features an IP20 / NEMA Type 1 enclosure for installation inside a suitable electrical cabinet.

• Flexible configuration: Supplied without an installed HIM, internal communication module, or feedback option.

Technical FAQs

1. What is the primary function of the 20AD2P1A0AYNANC0?

It is a variable frequency AC drive that controls the speed and torque of compatible three-phase AC motors by adjusting output frequency and voltage.

2. What is the rated motor power?

The drive supports 1 HP (0.75 kW) normal-duty operation and 0.75 HP (approximately 0.55 kW) heavy-duty operation.

3. What is its rated output current?

Its continuous output current is 2.1 A. The published short-duration ratings are 2.4 A for one minute and 3.2 A for three seconds.

4. What input voltage does this model require?

It is designed for a 480V AC, three-phase input supply. Confirm the supply voltage and frequency against the drive nameplate before installation.

5. Does this drive include a braking IGBT?

Yes. The model includes an integrated braking IGBT, but it does not include an internal braking resistor. A compatible external resistor may be required depending on the application's braking requirements.

6. Does the 20AD2P1A0AYNANC0 include a communication module?

No. This configuration is supplied without an internal communication module. Additional communication functionality requires a compatible option.

7. Can it communicate directly with a PLC?

The drive can be integrated into a PLC-based system through its enhanced 24V I/O. Network communication requires a compatible communication option and appropriate configuration.

8. Does it include a local operator keypad?

No. This catalog configuration comes with a blank HIM cover rather than an installed Human Interface Module. A compatible HIM can be added separately if local keypad operation is required.

9. What does the second-environment EMC filter provide?

It is part of the drive's electromagnetic compatibility configuration and helps address conducted emissions requirements under applicable installation conditions. Proper grounding and installation practices remain necessary.

10. What should be checked if the motor fails to start?

Check the incoming power supply, drive fault indications, run command source, enable signals, motor wiring, and parameter settings. Confirm that any interlocks are satisfied and resolve active faults before restarting the equipment.
