Optimized Flexibility
The Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 700 AC drive offers a flexible package of power, control and operator interface designed to meet the demands for space, flexibility and reliability while providing a broad spectrum of features, allowing the user to easily configure the drive for most application needs.
The PowerFlex Packaged Drives Program simplifies installation and start up by allowing users to order drive packages that combine operator interface, control, communications and power options in pre-packaged assemblies. Offering a number of commonly requested pre-engineered options, as well as more complex custom-engineered packages, the packaged drives program provides a wide range of motor control options.
Excellent Performance
- Three control modes in one drive: Vector Control with Force Technology™, Sensorless Vector and V/Hz control.
- Outstanding open or closed loop speed regulation for applications ranging from fans and pumps to precise control of winders.
- Excellent torque production and tight torque regulation for the most demanding applications like extruders and web processes.
- Fast update times of torque inputs are suitable for high performance applications.
Easy to Use
- Full-featured LCD Human Interface Module (HIM) with multi-line and multi-lingual display simplifies programming.
- S.M.A.R.T Start and Detailed Assisted Start-up routines in the LCD HIM allows for easy configuring and tuning of the drive.
- Pull-apart control terminal blocks allow for easy wiring and quick disconnect!
- Control cassette which houses all control, I/O and encoder options is easy to remove and interchangeable with all PowerFlex 700 drive ratings.
- Optimized global voltage settings designed to worldwide standards allow quick set-up anywhere in the world.
- Excellent PC software tools, such as DriveExplorer™, DriveTools™ 2000 and RSLogix 5000™ make programming, configuration, monitoring and troubleshooting even easier.
Saves Space
- Innovative bookshelf design produce drives that are up to 68% smaller than other global drives.
- Bookshelf design optimizes panel space by allowing Zero Stacking™ or side-by-side mounting of the drives. In many cases, twice as many drives can be packaged in the same panel space as competitive products.
- Save panel space and wiring time with internal communication options, internal brake transistors, integral EMC filters and integral common mode chokes.

Drive Description
The PowerFlex® 700 AC drive offers outstanding performance in a general purpose drive that is easier to use than any other drive in its class. Whether your application requires the simplest speed control or the most demanding torque control, the PowerFlex 700 can meet the demands for space, application flexibility and performance. PowerFlex 700 AC drives can be easily configured to meet most application needs including TorqProve™ which automates torque and brake proving thereby simplifying many lifting applications. Available ratings include: 0.5 to 100 Hp at 240V AC, 0.5 to 700 Hp at 480V AC, 1 to 150 Hp at 600V AC and 45 to 132 kW at 690V AC.
With three control modes, Vector Control with FORCE Technology, Sensorless Vector and V/Hz Control, users can select the appropriate control to meet their application needs. A control cassette houses the control and I/O board for frames 0-6 that is easy to remove and is interchangeable for all PowerFlex 700 ratings. PowerFlex 700 frames 7-10 use the same control and I/O board as frames 0-6, installed directly in the drive. I/O is available as 24V DC or 120V AC and an encoder interface option is also available.
