Product Description:

The 14.F5.C1D-Y02A is an axis inverter manufactured by KEB within the F5 Combivert Axis Drives series. Designed for industrial automation, the drive modulates three-phase motor speed and torque to match process demands, replacing constant-speed starters and contactors. By converting fixed mains power into a variable output, it allows coordinated motion across multiple machine axes and interfaces with PLCs through its built-in control terminals.

The unit handles motors up to 10 HP when supplied from either 400 V or 230 V networks; the input side accepts 400 V AC or rectified AC/DC links without derating. A built-in braking transistor pairs with the GTR7 chopper to dissipate regenerated energy during deceleration. Output frequency is adjustable to 800 Hz, providing overhead for high-speed spindles, while a continuous phase current of 16.5 A supports nominal loading. Pulse patterns are synthesized at a switching rate of 2 kHz to limit audible noise and motor heating. Two analog channels, eight digital inputs, and twenty-nine control terminals permit flexible I/O mapping, and the resolver plus incremental encoder interface gives absolute and high-resolution speed feedback. The inverter is identified by size code 14, indicating heat-sink capacity appropriate for the above current ratings.

The frame measures 90 mm wide, 181 mm deep, and 250 mm high, enabling dense stacking inside an enclosure. The open-style construction is rated to IP20, so installation must occur in a clean control cabinet with forced airflow. For overload events, the power stage tolerates a short-time current of 20.63 A before protective logic intervenes, and an overcurrent trip threshold at 24.75 A disconnects the output to prevent device damage. These current limits support machine cycles with rapid starts and stops while safeguarding the drive against sustained fault energy.
