The Allen-Bradley 22C-D012N103 is a PowerFlex 400 Adjustable Frequency AC drive. This drive model is specifically suited for Fan and Pump applications. Typical applications where this drive model is compatible for installation are Water and Waste water applications, Heating, Ventilation and Airconditioning (HVAC) application and other similar industrial applications. This device is composed majority of electronic devices, enclosed within an enclosure rated IP20, NEMA/UL Open Type.

The 22C-D012N103 and the entire Adjustable Frequency AC Drive product family is generally termed as Variable Frequency Drive (VFD), Variable Speed Drive (VSD) or Adjustable Speed Drive. All these terms refer to the same device that performs AC motor speed control. The 22C-D012N103 is not limited to speed control as it is equally capable of implementing motor starting, stopping and idle protective actions. It also has a programmable ramping, acceleration, deceleration parameters that not only protect the motor but increases operation efficiency and significantly lower energy consumption.

The is operated by supplying 380-480VAC, 3-phase to the input voltage terminals. It delivers output parameters such as 0-460VAC, 3-Phase, output current of 12.0 A and output Power of 5.5 kW (7.5 HP). This drive is a Frame C that supports direct Panel Mounting. It has embedded motor protection settings of 810V DC bus voltage (equivalent to 575V AC incoming line) as Bus Overvoltage Trip; 390V DC bus voltage (equivalent to 275V AC incoming line) for Bus undervoltage trip. The drive has a class 10 motor overload protection according to NEC article 430 and motor over-temperature protection according to NEC article 430.126 (A) (2). UL 508C File 29572. It is also capable of detecting Overcurrent, Ground fault trip, and Short circuit trip.

Meanwhile, the minimum enclosure volume should be 5098 cubic inches. The power dissipation is 200 IP20 open watts. For packaging and protection, the Allen-Bradley AC drive uses the NEMA/UL open type enclosure which allows for easy IP20 panel mounting. The dimensions add to the space-saving design of the gadget. The drive dimensions measure 260 x 130 x 180 mm. You can use this 12-A Allen-Bradley drive for the safe operation and speed control of the fans, pumps, and other applications with a horsepower rating of 7.5 HP, equivalent to 5.5 kW. The 22C-D012N103, like other members of the Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 400 AC Drive series, comes with a multitude of high-end specifications which allow for seamless system integration and functioning. The cost-effectiveness, flexibility, and ease of use make it an ideal choice for applications involving variable torque.
