Product Description:

The A8.F5.S1D-24EA is an axis drive from the F5 Combivert Axis Drives series manufactured by KEB for variable-speed control of synchronous motors in automated machinery. It acts as the power stage between a motion controller and the motor. The unit regulates current and voltage to match commanded torque and speed profiles while providing protective functions for production equipment.

This model operates from a 1/3-phase 230 V AC/DC supply and uses a built-in braking transistor to dissipate regenerated energy during rapid deceleration. The housing carries an IP20 rating, so it must be mounted inside an enclosure that shields it from conductive dust or liquids. Pulse-width modulation is generated at a 2 kHz switching frequency, balancing motor smoothness with manageable switching losses. For fault containment, the over-current trip is set at 180% of rated current to help prevent semiconductor damage if the load stalls or cables short.

An overvoltage threshold of 400 VDC and an undervoltage limit of 216 VDC secure the DC link against supply transients. A short-time current capability of 150% of rated current allows brief torque surges during acceleration without forcing immediate derating. The drive supports synchronous motor control and accepts resolver as well as incremental encoder signals through its feedback interface for precise rotor position data.

Wake Industrial stocks this drive and provides quotes that remain valid for 30 days. Same-day shipping is available for urgent orders when timing is critical. Customers can use the chat tool available on the website for questions about part numbers or fault codes.
