Product Description:

The 09.F5.MBD-2BEA is an axis drive manufactured by KEB for the F5 Combivert Axis Drives series. It is installed between the plant's 230 volt mains and a matched motor, modulating voltage and frequency so conveyor, gantry, or spindle axes follow motion commands issued by a PLC or CNC. A 24 V auxiliary section supplies 100 mA for control electronics, and the integrated resolver/TTL encoder interface forwards real-time shaft feedback to the controller, completing the closed-loop required for precise industrial automation.

The drive accepts a nominal line of 230 VAC and delivers a continuous output of 7.0 A; together these values support a rated apparent power of 2.8 kVA. Carrier modulation is performed at a 16 kHz switching frequency, reducing audible motor noise while keeping current ripple within allowed limits. When dynamic cycles demand additional headroom, the inverter can supply a short-time current of 12.6 A and a maximum braking current of 9.5 A; excess energy is dissipated through an external resistor no smaller than 47 Ω. The motor side is limited to a mechanical load of 1.5 kW, and an overcurrent trip takes the unit offline at 15.1 A to protect semiconductors. Command values enter through an analog setpoint port that resolves 12 bits per sample and is refreshed every 1 ms, giving the drive a fast response to speed or torque changes.

The housing carries an IP20 protection rating, so it is intended for mounting inside a switch cabinet with forced ventilation. Thermal management is aided by a heat sink that may reach a peak of 90 °C during heavy duty; under these conditions, the inverter's internal losses average 130 W. Short-time output remains available without derating as long as this temperature limit is not exceeded. System resolution stays consistent because the analog input retains its 12-bit granularity regardless of load or ambient changes. Regenerative energy is routed to the external brake resistor to help stabilize the DC bus during deceleration.
