PowerFlex 70

The PowerFlex 70 is an Allen-Bradley AC variable-frequency drive family (Bulletin 20A) designed for flexible machine and panel installations across a wide range of horsepower and voltage requirements. Buyers selecting a catalog number should understand the key nomenclature positions: the voltage-class character following the bulletin prefix identifies input voltage — B for 240V three-phase, D for 480V three-phase, and E for 600V three-phase — while the current/HP code uses a decimal convention where "P" denotes a decimal point (e.g., 2P2 = 2.2 A, 030 = 30 A / 15 HP at 480V). The enclosure character sets protection rating: A is panel-mount IP20/NEMA 1, C is wash-down-rated IP66/NEMA 4X/12, and F is flange-mount with IP66 on the rear. Available accessories for this family include the 20A-DG01 DriveGuard Safe-Off internal-mount kit and the 20A-ENC-1 5V/12V DC encoder interface kit.
