The PowerFlex 7000 medium voltage AC drive selection tables are 
based on two (2) types of drive service duty ratings: 
 
 
1) Normal Duty (110% overload for one (1) Minute, once every
10 minutes) – used for Variable Torque (VT) applications only.
Drives with this rating are designed for 100% continuous operation, 
with 110% overload for one (1) minute, once every 10 minutes. 
2)
Heavy Duty (150% overload for one (1) Minute, once every 10
minutes) – used for Constant Torque (CT) applications only.
Drives with this rating are designed for 100% continuous operation 
with 150% overload for one (1) minute, once every 10 minutes. 
 
 
Service Duty Rating, Continuous Current Rating & Altitude Rating 
Code 
 
 
There are different codes that define service duty and altitude in the 
drive catalog number (see page B-1). 
For
example,
 
 
Catalog number 7000A – A105DED-R6TXI, has a continuous current 
rating of 105 amps, with a “normal duty” service rating up to 1000 
meters altitude. 
 
 
Catalog number 7000A – B105DED-R6TXI has a continuous rating of 
105 amps with a “normal duty” service rating up to 5000 meters altitude. 
 
 
Please note that the ambient temperature rating of the drive is reduced 
at higher altitudes. If 40°C ambient is required at 1001-5000 meters 
altitude, then a rating code of Z is required.
