Product Description:

The 8I64T200220.00X-1 inverter is produced by B & R Automation within the 8I6 ACOPOS Inverters series. It converts fixed 200–240 VAC utility power into a variable three-phase output that regulates motor speed in conveyors, pick-and-place gantries, and packaging lines. An embedded 32-bit counter lets the drive monitor incremental encoder pulses directly, allowing it to synchronize motion commands with upstream PLC tasks and meet the short cycle times expected in automated cells.

At full load, the drive handles apparent power of 5.2 kVA and captures encoder edges at up to 10 kHz. Communication takes place over X2X and CANopen, so parameters, diagnostics, and real-time data flow across the same lines that orchestrate multi-axis motion. When supplied from a 200 VAC line, input demand peaks at 14.9 A, while continuous motor current reaches 11 A. The control loop updates every 400 µs, and the power stage then switches with a 4 kHz carrier to keep torque ripple low. The logic section draws only 100 mA, and the hardware can withstand 5 kA short-circuit currents without losing protective coordination.

The output stage is sized for machines that need up to 2.2 kW of mechanical power, and transient overloads are covered by a peak phase current of 16.5 A. For regenerative braking, the inverter supports an external resistor no smaller than 25 Ω, which helps prevent excess dissipation in the chopper circuit. During nominal operation, the electronics dissipate only 114 W, easing cabinet ventilation requirements. With a maximum mains current of 13 A at 240 VAC and a mass of 1.35 kg, the unit fits compactly on DIN rail or back-panel assemblies without imposing high thermal or structural loads on the enclosure.
