Product Overview
The 22A-D4P0N104 is a compact, cost-effective AC variable frequency drive (VFD) manufactured by Allen-Bradley, a brand of Rockwell Automation, engineered as a core member of the PowerFlex 4 product family. Designed to meet global OEM and end-user demands for simplicity, space savings, and cost efficiency, the 22A-D4P0N104 delivers 1.5 kW (2 HP) of motor control power at 4.0 A output, operating from a three-phase 380–480 VAC input (340–528 V range) and producing a three-phase 0–460 V output. As a plate-style, IP20/NEMA Type Open drive, the 22A-D4P0N104 embodies the PowerFlex 4 philosophy of providing powerful motor speed control in the smallest possible footprint, making it the ideal choice for panel builders, machine manufacturers, and plant engineers who need reliable variable speed control without the overhead of larger, more complex drive platforms.
The 22A-D4P0N104 comes equipped with an integral keypad featuring a local potentiometer and control keys that are active right out of the box, enabling immediate commissioning without additional programming tools or software. Utilizing V/Hz control with slip compensation, the drive maintains excellent speed regulation across varying load conditions, while its built-in RS-485 communication interface provides a foundation for integration into supervisory control systems. The 22A-D4P0N104 supports output frequencies from 0 to 240 Hz, achieves a typical efficiency of 97.5%, and provides drive overload protection, ramp regulation, and flying start capabilities. With optional serial converter modules and communication modules for ControlNet, DeviceNet, EtherNet/IP, Profibus DP, BACnet, and LonWorks, the 22A-D4P0N104 can be tailored to virtually any industrial network architecture.
Rated for ambient temperatures up to 50°C with minimal spacing between drives, and supporting Zero Stacking configurations up to 40°C, the maximizes cabinet density while maintaining reliable operation. Its IP20 open-plate design permits flange mounting and DIN rail installation, with an optional IP30/NEMA Type 1 enclosure conversion kit available for harsher environments. Compliant with UL508C, CSA, CE, the Low Voltage Directive (EN 50178), and EMC Directive (EN 61800-3), the meets global regulatory requirements for industrial deployment. For OEMs and end users seeking an economical yet capable motor control solution, the delivers the perfect balance of functionality, compactness, and Allen-Bradley’s renowned reliability.
