Overview of Drive


Introduction

The PowerFlex™ 7000L “C” Frame drive represents the third
generation of medium voltage drives at Rockwell Automation. The
PowerFlex 7000L “C” Frame medium voltage AC drive is part of the
PowerFlex family of AC drive products. The Allen-Bradley
PowerFlex™ family of Drives incorporates leading-edge technology,
embedded communications, and significant commonality across
multiple platforms, networks, operator interface programming and
hardware. Designed for end users, solution providers and OEMs,
PowerFlex 7000L “C” Frame liquid-cooled drives meet applications
ranging from 3000 to 9,000 horsepower (2240 – 6715 kW).

The PowerFlex 7000L “C” Frame drive is a general purpose stand
alone medium voltage drive that controls speed, torque, direction,
starting, and stopping of standard asynchronous or synchronous AC
motors. It is intended for use on a host of standard and specialty
applications such as fans, pumps, compressors, mixers, conveyors,
kilns, fan-pumps, and test stands. Primary industries for these
applications include petrochemical, cement, mining and metals,
forest products, power generation, and water / waste water.


The PowerFlex 7000L “C” Frame drive is a global product that
adheres to the most common standards from NEC, IEC, NEMA, UL,
and CSA. It is available with the world’s most common supply
voltages at medium voltage, from 3300 to 6900 volts. 


The design focus is on high reliability, ease of use, and lower total
cost of ownership.
