Product Description:
The 15.F5.C3E-350A is an AC axis drive from KEB that belongs to the F5 Combivert Axis Drives series. This inverter converts fixed-frequency mains power into regulated output for three-phase synchronous or induction motors, giving motion control systems precise speed and torque adjustment without mechanical gear changes. In automated machinery, it links to a higher-level PLC, closes the motor feedback loop through dual encoder channels, and delivers commanded current to actuators such as conveyors, gantries, or extruders. Its axis-control functions support applications that require coordinated acceleration, deceleration, and positioning under changing loads.
The power section accepts a three-phase 400 V AC supply or a 400 V DC input. It supports a maximum motor current of 43 A, while continuous operation is limited to a rated phase current of 24 A. For short acceleration periods, the electronics permit a temporary current increase to 150%, enabling heavier loads to start without causing undervoltage trips. The IGBTs operate at a maximum switching frequency of 16 kHz, while standard operation uses a nominal frequency of 4 kHz to balance audible noise and switching losses. The housing uses form factor E and corresponds to inverter size code 15, allowing it to fit cabinet layouts intended for this drive size.
Protective hardware inside the unit includes an integrated braking transistor and EMI filter, allowing the drive to dissipate regenerated energy and reduce conducted electrical interference without separate modules. Fault monitoring compares real-time phase current with an overcurrent trip level of 180% of the rated value. If that threshold is exceeded, the inverter disables its output to help prevent damage to the power semiconductors and connected equipment. Two encoder inputs provide separate feedback options for motor control and position monitoring. Channel 1 supports Hiperface feedback, while Channel 2 provides incremental input and output connections for standard TTL or HTL sensors. The dual-channel arrangement allows the drive to receive primary motor feedback while also processing an additional incremental signal from the machine.
