Product Description:

The 16.F5.A1E-34-A is an AC inverter manufactured by KEB for the F5 Combivert Axis Drives series. It serves as the interface between a fixed-frequency supply and asynchronous or synchronous motors used in automated assembly lines, material-handling conveyors, and process equipment. Inside the housing, a current-controlled power section and a digital signal processor regulate torque and speed so motion commands from a PLC can be carried out during start-up, steady-state running, and controlled deceleration. This arrangement supports stable motor response when the application requires repeatable acceleration and predictable stopping behavior under changing load conditions.

The inverter size code 16 indicates the physical frame and the power semiconductor rating used for this model. Its general maximum motor capacity is 20 HP, allowing it to drive mid-range fan wheels, pumps, or geared axes without unnecessary oversizing. Control tasks are handled by a Standard Board, which provides fault monitoring, parameter storage, and onboard I/O on the main control layer. The housing form factor code E sets the height, mounting hole pattern, and heat-sink depth used when arranging several drives on a common backplane. For dynamic braking cycles, a built-in braking transistor connects the DC bus to an external resistor so regenerated energy can be dissipated as heat instead of returning to the mains.

The variant identified as Unit B is rated for connection to three-phase networks that supply 230 V without derating. The Combivert F5 platform uses a common operating structure across related models, which helps keep parameter handling and control behavior consistent in multi-axis installations. That consistency is useful when one machine uses several drives with different power classes but similar control requirements. It also helps maintain uniform response across axes that must accelerate, run, and decelerate in a coordinated way.
