147
The Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 7000 medium voltage drives family
incorporates leading-edge technology, embedded communications, and
significant commonality across multiple platforms, networks, operator
interface programming and hardware. Designed for end users, solution
providers and OEMs, the PowerFlex 7000 air-cooled and liquid-cooled
medium voltage drives meet applications ranging from fractional to
6340kW (8500 hp).
PowerFlex 7000 medium voltage drives control speed, torque,
direction, starting and stopping of standard asynchronous or
synchronous AC motors. PowerFlex 7000 drives adhere to the most
common worldwide standards including NEC, IEC, NEMA, UL, and
CSA and are available with supply voltages at medium voltage from
2400-6600 volts.
PowerFlex 7000 medium voltage drives are designed for high
reliability, ease of use and lower total cost of ownership.
