Product Description:

The 10.F5.C1B-3A0A is an AC axis drive manufactured by KEB within the F5 Combivert Axis Drives series. Intended for three-phase supplies, the inverter adjusts motor speed and torque to match process demands in conveyors, winding systems, and general automation. By modulating output frequency and voltage, it serves as the intermediary between a line feeder and the mechanical load, allowing coordinated motion profiles and reducing energy usage across multi-axis machines.

This model is fed from a three-phase mains at 400 V, and its control electronics are housed in an IP20 enclosure that requires installation inside a protective cabinet. The power section can deliver up to 12.5 A of output current for short duration peaks, while continuous operation is limited to 5.8 A to keep semiconductor temperature within limits. Pulse-width modulation is executed at a carrier frequency selectable up to 16 kHz; the factory nominal setting is 8 kHz to balance acoustic noise and switching loss. Drive-side data exchange completes in 2 ms, matching the I/O scan time needed for tight PLC loops. Two unipolar analog inputs permit speed or torque references, and an integrated braking transistor dissipates regenerated energy during fast deceleration.

Mechanical layout follows KEB size code 10, giving a cabinet footprint of 90 mm in width, 220 mm in height, and 160 mm in depth so that multiple drives can mount side by side with minimal clearance. The power stage is rated for motors up to 3 HP, aligning with the 5.8 A continuous current and the built-in three-phase input topology. Eight isolated control terminals provide 8 digital inputs for run command, direction, or preset selection, while the dual analog channels accept signals with 12-bit resolution for fine reference scaling. Housing code B identifies the standard convection-cooled case, and the inverter size maintains a 2 mm² wiring recommendation to complement its switching frequencies without excessive conductor heating.
