Product Description:
The 15.F5.C1E-L50A is an axis inverter manufactured by KEB for the F5 Combivert Axis Drives series. It converts three-phase mains power into a variable-frequency output that regulates motor speed and torque in automated machinery such as conveyors, winders, and positioning tables. By combining power electronics, local I/O, and a dedicated braking stage, the unit provides a compact drive solution for installations that require precise motion control and regenerative energy handling.
The inverter delivers a nominal output of 24 A under European approvals, while the UL file limits continuous current to 21 A. Its power stage is sized for motors up to 15 HP, a rating that also applies to the 230 V Unit B classification. Pulse-width modulation runs at a rated carrier frequency of 4 kHz, with an upper adjustment limit of 16 kHz for low-noise operation. The enclosure meets IP20 ingress protection requirements, and forced airflow through the heat sink maintains the operating temperature. Overcurrent tripping engages at 43 A. The air-cooled design houses the internal braking transistor that interfaces with the GTR7 chopper.
Control integration is handled through 29 screw terminals that provide access to discrete and analog channels. The CPU completes a full field update every 2 ms, allowing tight velocity loops. Plant controllers can toggle 8 digital inputs for start, stop, and mode commands, while two analog inputs scale speed references. The drive uses 2 analog outputs to return feedback to supervisory PLCs. Two relay contacts and two transistor outputs signal operating status or faults. Dynamic braking energy is routed through the GTR7 chopper, which is mounted behind the panel and works with the internal braking transistor. This arrangement matches the inverter size code 15 and housing form E.
