Product Description:

The 80VD100PD.C000-01 inverter module is produced by B&R Automation as a member of the 80VD Inverter Modules series. Designed for multi-axis drive systems, the unit converts common DC-bus energy into regulated three-phase output for as many as two connected motors. In an industrial automation cell, it provides speed and torque control while supporting shared braking, coordinated axis operation, and centralized diagnostic handling through its integrated controller.

During continuous operation, the module supplies 8 ARMS of line current to each motor channel, helping it remain within thermal limits under steady load. For short bursts of acceleration, the drive section can deliver a module peak current of 30 APeak, while each individual motor output is limited to 15 APeak, so cable and protection selection can reflect transient demand. The internal current controller samples at 20 kHz, which sets fast torque response and helps reduce ripple during dynamic motion. Gate drivers support selectable switching frequencies of 5/10/20/40 kHz, making it possible to balance acoustic behavior, switching losses, and electromagnetic emissions for the application. The housing is rated IP20, so the module is intended for installation inside a control cabinet rather than direct exposure on the machine.

Energy for the inverter is buffered by 940 µF of DC-bus capacitance, giving the braking chopper stable voltage during regenerative events. Position feedback wiring is handled through a dual encoder interface that accepts 2x EnDat 2.2 signals, and these channels transfer position data at 6.25 Mbit/s over cable lengths up to 25 m without repeaters. The module also provides a 12.5 VDC sensor supply and a 24 VDC brake coil output, so external feedback devices and motor brakes can be connected without separate support hardware. Two dedicated motor terminals complete the package for compact two-axis installations in automated equipment.
