Our PowerFlex® 525 AC Drives feature an innovative, modular design to support fast and easy installation and configuration. This next generation of compact drives offers embedded EtherNet/IP™ communications, USB programming, and standard safety features. PowerFlex 525 drives, which offer a power rating of 0.4...22 kW (0.5...30 Hp) with global voltage classes of 100...600V, provide a variety of motor control and flexible mounting options. PowerFlex 525 AC drives operate at temperatures as high as 70 °C (158 °F), and they are ideal for applications such as conveyors, fans, pumps, and mixers.
What’s New?
The PowerFlex 523 and 525 VFD offering has been expanded to include a PROFINET option card. The card connects drives to PROFINET to exchange data with the host controller easily.
By installing a card in PowerFlex 520-Series drives through the main PROFINET device, you can:
- Control the drive through PROFINET
- Modify the drive’s parameters through PROFINET
- Monitor the drive’s status through PROFINET
