Installation Guide
- Mount the drive vertically in a clean panel.
- Keep the published clearance for airflow. The fan cools the heat sink.
- Use the 25-JBAx kit when NEMA 1 protection is required.
- Connect input power to the 1-phase supply. Wire the motor to T1, T2 and T3.
- Earth the drive carefully. Leakage current exceeds 3.5 mA AC and 10 mA DC.
- Fit an external EMC filter for C1, C2 or C3 emission compliance.
- Add an external brake resistor when dynamic braking is needed.
- The drive is not intended for public low-voltage networks feeding homes.
- Check harmonic limits with the network operator before connection.
Setup and Maintenance Convenience
- Use the keypad, potentiometer and LED display for local setup.
- Configure the drive in Studio 5000 with Logix motion instructions.
- Accel and decel are set as REAL tags; see publication MOTION-RM002.
- Select from several stop modes: Disable and Coast, Current Decel and Disable, Ramped Decel and Disable.
- Use the 25-FANx-70C kit to raise the ambient limit when the panel runs hot.
- The fan-cooled design keeps service simple. Frame A parts are easy to reach.

FAQ
- What input voltage does this drive accept?
- The drive accepts 100…120V AC single-phase input, with -15% / +10% tolerance.
- Can I use single-phase input on a three-phase drive?
- Yes, but this model is already a 1-phase drive. It provides the full 2.5 A rating.
- Does the drive include an EMC filter?
- No. Add an external filter to meet EN 61800-3 C1, C2 or C3 limits.
- How do I get braking?
- The drive has a brake IGBT. You must add an external brake resistor for dynamic braking.
- Can this drive do position control?
- Yes, with the 25-ENC-2 encoder option and a Logix controller using CIP Motion.
- What is the STO response time?
- The embedded Safe Torque Off function responds in less than 12 ms.
- Does the drive support Modbus RTU?
- No. The PowerFlex 527 provides EtherNet/IP only. No RS-485 DSI port is published.
- How do I raise the ambient temperature limit?
- Fit the 25-FANx-70C control module fan kit. The limit rises to 70 °C with derating.
- Is an encoder required for sensorless vector control?
- No. SVC works without an encoder and gives ±0.5% speed regulation over a 100:1 range.
- What should I check before first power-up?
- Check earth bonding, motor wiring at T1/T2/T3 and input fuse or breaker ratings. Leakage current can exceed 3.5 mA AC, so use a high-integrity earth conductor.
