Product Description:

The 17.F5.C1G-350A is a variable-frequency axis drive manufactured by KEB as part of the F5 Combivert Axis Drives series. The inverter accepts three-phase supply power and converts it into a regulated output that controls induction or synchronous motors in industrial automation cells, enabling closed-loop speed and torque adjustment for conveyors, pump stations, and general machinery. A built-in braking transistor improves deceleration during high-inertia stops. Its power stage is suited to machine axes that require stable speed regulation, repeatable acceleration, and controlled stopping during regular production cycles.

At the electrical interface, the drive is designed for a line supply of 400 V AC and delivers a continuous mechanical output of 18.5 kW. Under these conditions, it supplies 42 A of motor current, while brief overloads can reach 75 A. Pulse-width modulation is generated at carrier frequencies up to 16 kHz, which helps reduce audible motor noise, while many applications use a lower nominal setting to limit switching losses. The unit connects to three-phase feeders, uses size code 17, and has form factor G within the Combivert F5 range. A factory-installed braking transistor handles regenerated energy during deceleration, and the inverter can control motors rated up to 25 HP in compatible 230 V or 400 V applications.

Control and feedback resources are processed every 2 ms by the internal scan cycle. Wiring is terminated on 29 control terminals, including 8 digital inputs, along with analog inputs, analog outputs, relay outputs, and a shared digital output for external signaling. The cabinet footprint of 181 × 415 × 311 mm supports retrofit installation while leaving room for airflow around heat-producing sections. Relay contacts can report drive-ready or fault status to higher-level controls, and the integrated I/O reduces the need for separate interface hardware in compact control panels.
