The Allen Bradley 20-HIM-A6 is a human interface module used primarily with the PowerFlex 700 series drives. This device features an LCD screen, allowing for visibility and interaction through a full numeric keypad. The module operates efficiently under a current draw of 140 mA and communicates using the Drive Peripheral Interface (DPI) protocol.
This equipment supports a supply voltage of 12 VDC, which it receives from the associated host drive. A prominent feature is its NEMA 1 protection rating, denoting its suitability for indoor environments when properly mounted. Its functionality remains stable across a temperature range of 0 to 50 °C (32 to 122 °F) for operational use, while it can endure storage conditions spanning from -40 to 85 °C (-40 to 185 °F).
Data handling capabilities include a selection between communication data rates of 125 and 500 Kbps. Added to these specifications is a vibration resistance rating of 2.5 G across the spectrum of 5 Hz to 2 kHz, ensuring reliability during operation in conditions of mechanical stress. The module has also been engineered to withstand shocks up to 30 G over a pulse duration of 11 milliseconds, enhancing its durability in dynamic environments. Overall, the 20-HIM-A6 combines robust functionality with user-friendly features to facilitate effective control of the PowerFlex series drives.
