Product Description:

The 10.F5.C1B-3A00 is an axis inverter drive produced by KEB within the F5 Combivert Axis Drives series. It regulates the speed and torque of three-phase motors up to 3 HP, allowing coordinated positioning, conveyor control, or spindle regulation in automated lines. The unit accepts control signals through two analog channels and eight digital inputs, while two relay outputs pass status or fault flags to upstream controllers. A factory-mounted braking transistor dissipates regenerative energy, and the housing follows the standard cooling concept for this drive family, so no external fan kit is required.

The drive draws a nominal line current of 5.8 A from a three-phase 400 V AC/DC supply and samples fieldbus or terminal states every 2 ms, ensuring responsive reaction to process commands. Pulse-width modulation is generated at a rated carrier of 8 kHz, with an upper limit of 16 kHz for applications that require reduced acoustic noise or finer current resolution. An internal 24 V DC supply powers the logic section, and the inverter size code 10 corresponds to a frame intended for motors whose continuous demand stays within the unit’s thermal capacity. Because no encoder feedback card is included, speed control defaults to open-loop or sensorless modes unless an option board is added.

During acceleration, the power stage can deliver up to 12.5 A, while protection circuitry trips at 216% of rated current to prevent semiconductor damage. A separate short-time overload rating of 180% supports brief load peaks without nuisance shutdowns. The compact footprint of 90 × 220 × 160 mm simplifies cabinet layout and leaves space for auxiliary devices such as line reactors or EMC filters. Two analog references, eight digital commands, and the standard cooling path remain available even when high switching frequencies are selected, so the drive can be matched to application inertia without enlarging the enclosure.
