Product Description:

Rexroth Indramat built the RD51.2-4B-015-L-A1-FW Drive Controller for the needs of industrial automation services. It supports a rated motor output of 15 kilowatts. The supply voltage of the device is three-phase between 380 to 480 volts AC. Voltage tolerance is ~10 percent for proper operation.

The output frequency of RD51.2-4B-015-L-A1-FW drive controller reaches up to 250 Hz at 4 kHz switching frequency. The nominal current of the drive is 30 amperes at this frequency. The peak current for 60 seconds is rated at 39 amperes. For one second peak current rises to 51 amperes. The maximum peak current for 0.5 seconds is 60 amperes. The drive reaches up to 500 Hz output when the frequency is at 8 kHz. The supplied current under 8 kHz is limited to 25 amperes. The peak current for 60 seconds is 33 amperes. This peak value of current increases up to 43 amperes for 1 sec. The highest maximum current for 0.5 seconds is 50 amperes. The rated output at 8 kHz is 16 kVA. The peak power rating is 22 kVA at 60 seconds. The RD51.2-4B-015-L-A1-FW drive controller has a cooling air requirement of 0.05 cubic meters per second. The unit weight with forced air cooling is 11.3 kilograms.

The RD51.2-4B-015-L-A1-FW drive controller uses forced air or panel cooling based on installation. Mechanical design includes IP20 protection with plug connection. This protection level complies with EN 60529 standards. The internal chopper handles a continuous power of 7.5 kilowatts. The minimum resistance supported by the chopper is 17.5 ohms. The power output is 20 kVA at a frequency measurement of 4 kHz. Peak power at 60 seconds is 26 kVA under the same frequency. The weight of the controller is 10.3 kilograms with a heat dissipation panel
