AF1000 | Economy variable frequency drive

With the AF1000, Beckhoff offers a cost-effective variable frequency drive for basic drive tasks, including belt drives, pumps, and fans. The compact, highly integrated devices are suitable for implementing drive axes with synchronous, asynchronous, and reluctance motors without a feedback system. Two versions are available:

• one for the low power range with a single-phase supply of 1 x 110 V AC to 240 V AC
• one for the higher power range with a three-phase supply of 3 x 208 V AC to 480 V AC

Properties

• single and dual-axis variants like proven Beckhoff servo drives
• drive-integrated STO/SS1 safety functions as an option
• 24 V control voltage generated from the DC link
• up to 6 digital I/Os integrated directly in the device
• connection of an external ballast resistor possible
• fully integrated into TwinCAT as an EtherCAT device

In the power range from 370 W to 3 kW, the AF1000 variable frequency drive complements the Beckhoff portfolio with particularly cost-efficient drive amplifiers.
