Allen-Bradley 20AD5P0A0AYNNNC0 PowerFlex70 AC Drive

Allen-Bradley 20AD5P0A0AYNNNC0 PowerFlex70 AC Drive 480V 5A 3HP

Product Introduction

The Allen-Bradley 20AD5P0A0AYNNNC0 belongs to the trusted PowerFlex 70 series. This AC drive provides variable speed control for motors up to 3 horsepower. It operates on a 480V AC three-phase supply. The unit delivers 5 amps of continuous output current.

For example, you can use this VFD for conveyors and pumps. Furthermore, it handles fans and small compressors effectively. This model includes an enhanced control board for better performance. Therefore, it offers precise speed regulation across various loads.

Additionally, the 20AD5P0A0AYNNNC0 comes with a brake IGBT installed. You can add an external braking resistor when needed. The drive mounts easily inside standard industrial panels.

Technical Specifications

The PowerFlex 70 20AD5P0A0AYNNNC0 accepts three-phase input from 480V AC. Its normal duty rating stands at 3 HP (2.2 kW). The heavy duty rating reaches 2 HP for more demanding applications.

Key electrical parameters include:

• Output current (continuous): 5 amps

• Output current (1 minute): 5.5 amps

• Output current (3 seconds): 7.5 amps

• Enclosure rating: IP20 / NEMA Type 1

• Frame size: Frame B

Moreover, this drive includes conformal coating on the circuit boards. This protects against moisture and dust in harsh environments. The unit has no built-in CE filter. You can add an external filter if needed.

Mechanical and Environmental Ratings

The Catalog Number 20AD5P0A0AYNNNC0 measures 180 mm wide, 260 mm high, and 165 mm deep. Its frame B size fits many existing PowerFlex 70 installations. The unit weighs 4.0 kg (8.81 lbs).

Environmental specifications are typical for panel-mount drives. Operating temperature ranges from 0°C to 50°C. Storage temperature extends from -40°C to 85°C. Humidity tolerance goes up to 95% without condensation.

Next, the maximum operating altitude is 1000 meters above sea level. For higher locations, derating applies. Vibration resistance meets IEC 60068-2-6 standards.

Control and Communication Features

The 20AD5P0A0AYNNNC0 uses enhanced control technology. This provides better torque regulation at low speeds. The drive includes six digital inputs and two analog inputs. Two relay outputs come standard for status signaling.

Furthermore, this model has no HIM (human interface module). A blank plate covers the front panel instead. You must use a remote HIM or software for programming. The unit also has no communication module installed. Optional modules add DeviceNet, ControlNet, or EtherNet/IP later.

Included Accessories and Options

This package includes several useful accessories alongside the base drive. Specifically, the PowerFlex 70 comes with a DriveGuard safe-off option board (20A-DG01). This board adds a safety function for emergency stops.

Additionally, you receive a 115V AC digital interface (AK-M9-115VAC-1). This simplifies wiring to external controls. One blank plate (20-HIM-A0) covers the HIM slot. An external fan kit (SK-M9-FAN1-ABCD1) helps cool the heat sink.

Moreover, the package contains a service connection board (SK-M9-SCB1). One conduit plate (SK-M9-CPLT1-B1) fits IP20 NEMA Type 1 mounting. Finally, a front cover with PowerFlex 70 logo (SK-M1-CVR1-B1) completes the kit.

Installation Guidelines

You should mount the Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 70 vertically on a flat panel. Leave 100 mm of free space above and below for airflow. Use M5 screws through the four mounting holes.

Furthermore, follow proper wiring practices. Connect input power to terminals R, S, and T. Connect the motor to terminals U, V, and W. Ground the unit using the dedicated grounding terminal. This minimizes electrical noise interference.

Finally, program the drive before applying motor power. Set motor nameplate parameters first. Then configure acceleration and deceleration times. Use a remote HIM or DriveExecutive software for programming.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Can the 20AD5P0A0AYNNNC0 run on single-phase 480V?
No. This drive requires three-phase input power only. Single-phase operation is not supported.

2. How do I program the drive without a HIM?
You need a remote HIM (20-HIM-C3S) or DriveExecutive software via a serial converter. The blank plate cannot program parameters.

3. What is the function of the included DriveGuard board?
The 20A-DG01 board provides a safe-off function. It disables the drive output for emergency stop circuits.

4. Does this drive include a braking resistor?
No. Only the brake IGBT is installed. You must purchase an external resistor separately for dynamic braking.

5. Is the conformal coating suitable for washdown environments?
Partially. The coating helps with humidity but is not fully waterproof. Use an IP66 enclosure for washdown areas.
