Allen-Bradley 20G1ALE395AN0NNNNN PowerFlex 755 AC Drive

1. Product Overview

Model: 20G1ALE395AN0NNNNN

The Allen-Bradley 20G1ALE395AN0NNNNN is a high-power AC variable frequency drive from the PowerFlex 755 series, designed for demanding industrial motor-control applications where reliable speed regulation, torque control, network connectivity, and flexible drive configuration are required.

This model is intended for large three-phase AC motors and is particularly suitable for industrial machinery, pumps, fans, conveyors, compressors, process equipment, material handling systems, and other large motor-driven applications.

The drive is configured for a 600 VAC, three-phase input supply and belongs to the high-power Frame 8 class. Its published current ratings provide different operating levels for Light Duty, Normal Duty, and Heavy Duty applications, allowing the same drive platform to be applied to different motor-load requirements.

The model provides an integrated EtherNet/IP communication interface, making it suitable for modern industrial control systems where the drive needs to exchange operating commands, speed references, status information, diagnostic information, and other data with a plant control network.

The unit uses forced-air cooling and is designed in an industrial Type 1 / IP20 enclosure configuration. The configuration is associated with an 800 mm deep MCC-style installation arrangement, making it suitable for larger industrial electrical rooms, motor control centers, drive cabinets, and centralized motor-control installations.

The model is supplied without a standard HIM operator module in the stated configuration. This makes it particularly appropriate for installations where the drive is controlled and monitored through a PLC, HMI, SCADA system, network interface, or external control station rather than from a permanently mounted local keypad.

4. Output Current Ratings

The 20G1ALE395AN0NNNNN provides different current capabilities depending on the selected operating duty.

Duty Rating Continuous Output Current Short-Time Rating Typical Motor Rating
Light Duty (LD) 395 A 435 A for 1 min 450 HP
Normal Duty (ND) 355 A 391 A for 1 min; up to 533 A for 3 sec 400 HP
Heavy Duty (HD) 295 A 443 A for 1 min; up to 533 A for 3 sec 350 HP

The actual usable motor rating should always be selected according to the motor nameplate current, load profile, acceleration requirements, overload requirements, ambient conditions, installation method, and applicable drive configuration.

The current rating is especially important for large industrial motors because two motors with the same horsepower rating can have different full-load current requirements depending on motor efficiency, power factor, voltage, construction, and operating conditions.

For that reason, the motor’s nameplate current should be treated as a primary selection parameter, rather than selecting the drive from horsepower alone.


5. Motor Capacity

The model is designed for large 600 VAC three-phase motor applications.

Duty Approximate Motor Capacity
Light Duty 450 HP
Normal Duty 400 HP
Heavy Duty 350 HP
Motor Voltage Up to 600 VAC class
Motor Type Three-phase AC motor
Control Application Variable-speed industrial motor control

The different duty ratings allow the drive to be used with different types of loads.

A pump or fan with a relatively smooth torque requirement may use a different duty selection than a heavily loaded conveyor, crusher, mixer, compressor, or other application requiring substantial starting and accelerating torque.


6. Input Power Characteristics

The 20G1ALE395AN0NNNNN is configured for a 600 VAC three-phase AC input.

The input section incorporates a precharge arrangement, which is important in a high-power drive because the DC bus contains substantial energy storage. Precharge limits the initial charging current into the DC bus components during startup.

Input Parameter Specification
Input Voltage 600 VAC
Number of Phases 3
Input Type AC
Precharge Included
Frequency 50/60 Hz class
DC Input Terminals Not provided in the stated configuration

8. Product Introduction

The PowerFlex 755 is a high-performance industrial drive platform intended for applications in which the motor must operate at controlled variable speed rather than simply running at a fixed line frequency.

The 20G1ALE395AN0NNNNN combines high current capacity with networked control capability. Its integrated EtherNet/IP interface allows it to become part of a larger automation architecture instead of operating as an isolated motor controller.

In a typical installation, the drive can receive a start command and speed reference from a control system, regulate motor speed, monitor operating conditions, provide diagnostic information, and transmit status information back to the control system.

This makes the drive suitable for centralized industrial automation environments where motor-control information needs to be available to operators and maintenance personnel.

The Frame 8 design places the product in the high-power segment of the PowerFlex 755 family. It is intended for substantial motor loads and is commonly considered for large process and production equipment.


9. Main Functions

The 20G1ALE395AN0NNNNN is designed to provide a broad range of motor-control functions.

Variable Speed Control

The primary function is to control the speed of a three-phase AC motor by varying the frequency and voltage supplied to the motor.

This can allow machinery to operate at the speed required by the production process rather than continuously operating at full motor speed.

Acceleration and Deceleration Control

Programmable acceleration and deceleration profiles allow the motor to start and stop in a controlled manner.

This can reduce mechanical shock and help coordinate motor operation with conveyors, pumps, fans, and other equipment.

Torque Control

The PowerFlex 755 platform supports advanced motor-control functions suitable for applications where maintaining motor torque is important.

This is particularly useful for material handling, conveyors, hoists, process equipment, and other applications where load conditions can change significantly.

Networked Control

The integrated EtherNet/IP interface provides a convenient method for connecting the drive to an industrial control network.

Depending on the control architecture, the drive can exchange commands, references, status data, feedback, alarms, and diagnostic information with the automation system.

Diagnostic Functions

Drive operating conditions and fault information can be used for troubleshooting and maintenance.

This can reduce the need to troubleshoot the motor-control system entirely through physical inspection.


10. EtherNet/IP Communication

One of the important features of the 20G1ALE395AN0NNNNN is its embedded EtherNet/IP communication capability.

This allows the drive to communicate with an industrial automation network without necessarily requiring a separate external communication module for basic EtherNet/IP integration.

Typical information exchanged over the network can include:

Network Data Typical Function
Start Command Starts motor operation
Stop Command Stops motor operation
Speed Reference Sets desired motor speed
Frequency Reference Provides operating frequency command
Output Frequency Reports actual drive output frequency
Output Current Reports motor current
Drive Status Provides operating-state information
Fault Status Reports drive faults
Alarm Information Provides warning information
Control Word Coordinates drive commands
Status Word Returns drive operating status
Diagnostic Data Supports troubleshooting
Parameter Data Allows configured parameters to be monitored or managed

The actual network architecture depends on the PLC, HMI, control software, network topology, and drive configuration used by the end user.

Important: The dimensions and weight above should be regarded as approximate planning values rather than a certified mechanical drawing dimension. The final physical size and weight can change depending on enclosure arrangement, power structure, cabinet configuration, options, incoming connections, accessories, and installation method.

For procurement, transportation, lifting, foundation design, and cabinet fabrication, the final mechanical drawing for the exact configured unit should be used.


18. Installation Considerations

A drive of this power level requires considerably more installation planning than a small compact VFD.

Important considerations include:

  • Incoming power capacity
  • Short-circuit current availability
  • Input protection
  • Grounding
  • Motor cable size
  • Motor cable length
  • Motor insulation
  • Cabinet ventilation
  • Ambient temperature
  • Altitude
  • Service access
  • Cable routing
  • Electromagnetic compatibility
  • Control wiring
  • Network wiring
  • Maintenance clearance

Because this is a high-power Frame 8 drive, heat dissipation is an important part of the installation design.

The model uses forced-air cooling.

The cooling system moves air through the drive’s power components to remove heat generated during operation.

The actual heat output depends on:

  • Motor load
  • Output current
  • Switching frequency
  • Ambient temperature
  • Input voltage
  • Motor operating speed
  • Duty cycle
  • Drive configuration
  • Installation arrangement

A properly designed cabinet must provide sufficient airflow and prevent hot exhaust air from being recirculated into the drive cooling inlet.

25. Five Popular Allen-Bradley Reference Models

For a broader Allen-Bradley comparison, the following PowerFlex models are useful reference products within the same general variable-frequency-drive family.

Model Product Series Voltage Class Approximate Capacity Typical Application
20G1ALE355AN0NNNNN PowerFlex 755 600 VAC High-power, Frame 8 Pumps, fans, conveyors
20G1ALE395AN0NNNNN PowerFlex 755 600 VAC High-power, Frame 8 Large industrial motors
20G1ALE435AN0NNNNN PowerFlex 755 600 VAC High-power, Frame 8 Process machinery
20G1ALE460AN0NNNNN PowerFlex 755 600 VAC High-power, Frame 8 Large pumps and compressors
20G1ALE510AN0NNNNN PowerFlex 755 600 VAC Very high-power class Heavy industrial equipment

These models are particularly useful when the main requirement is to remain within the same high-power PowerFlex 755 platform while adjusting the available current capacity.


26. Why the 395 A Model Is Important

The 20G1ALE395AN0NNNNN occupies a substantial power range within the Frame 8 PowerFlex 755 family.

Its 395 A Light Duty rating gives it enough capacity for large motors, while the Normal Duty and Heavy Duty ratings provide different operating points for applications with different load characteristics.

This makes the model appropriate for installations where motor load is significant and where a compact low-power VFD would not provide sufficient current capacity.

For industrial engineering projects, the 395 A class is particularly relevant to large process pumps, large fans, conveyors, compressors, and other machinery that requires substantial motor power.


27. Light Duty vs Normal Duty vs Heavy Duty

Duty classification is important when selecting a large industrial drive.

Light Duty

Light Duty applications generally have relatively moderate overload requirements and smoother load characteristics.

Typical examples may include certain centrifugal pumps and fans.

For this model, the Light Duty rating is approximately:

395 A continuous / 435 A for 1 minute / 450 HP

Normal Duty

Normal Duty applications require more capability than typical variable-torque loads but may not require the highest heavy-duty overload performance.

For this model:

355 A continuous / 391 A for 1 minute / up to 533 A for 3 seconds / approximately 400 HP

Heavy Duty

Heavy Duty operation is intended for applications where the motor experiences higher torque requirements or more demanding acceleration and overload conditions.

For this model:

295 A continuous / 443 A for 1 minute / up to 533 A for 3 seconds / approximately 350 HP

The correct duty rating should be selected from the actual load characteristics rather than simply choosing the highest horsepower number.


28. Typical Industrial Equipment

The 20G1ALE395AN0NNNNN can be considered for equipment such as:

Equipment Suitability
Large Centrifugal Pumps Suitable
Water Pumps Suitable
Wastewater Pumps Suitable
Cooling Pumps Suitable
Industrial Fans Suitable
Large Blowers Suitable
Conveyors Suitable
Material Handling Systems Suitable
Compressors Suitable
Process Machinery Suitable
Industrial Ventilation Suitable
Production Equipment Suitable
Bulk Material Systems Suitable
Large Mechanical Drives Suitable

Actual suitability depends on the motor nameplate current, load torque curve, acceleration requirements, braking requirements, environmental conditions, and control method.


29. Advantages for Automation Systems

The embedded EtherNet/IP interface is especially useful in automated production environments.

A typical system can include:

PLC → Industrial Network → PowerFlex 755 → Motor → Mechanical Equipment

The control system can issue commands to the drive while receiving operational feedback.

This arrangement can reduce the amount of hardwired control wiring required for basic command and status functions.

The drive can also become part of the plant’s diagnostic architecture, allowing operators to view motor-control information from an HMI or supervisory system.


30. Advantages for Maintenance

Large industrial motors and drives are expensive pieces of equipment, so maintenance visibility is important.

Networked drive information can help maintenance personnel identify:

  • Drive running status
  • Motor current
  • Output frequency
  • Fault conditions
  • Warning conditions
  • Command status
  • Speed reference
  • Operating state
  • Diagnostic information

This can help reduce unnecessary physical troubleshooting and provide a clearer picture of the drive’s operating condition.


31. Replacement and Retrofit Considerations

When replacing an existing PowerFlex 755 drive, the complete catalog number should be checked.

The following items should be compared:

Check Item Required
Voltage Yes
Phase Yes
Current Yes
Duty Rating Yes
Motor HP Yes
Frame Size Yes
Enclosure Yes
Cooling Yes
Network Yes
Dynamic Braking Yes
Input Filtering Yes
CM Jumper Configuration Yes
HIM Configuration Yes
Cabinet Dimensions Yes
Motor Cable Yes
Control Wiring Yes
Parameter Settings Yes

A drive with a similar horsepower rating is not automatically a direct replacement.


32. Motor Selection

For the 20G1ALE395AN0NNNNN, motor selection should consider:

  • Motor rated voltage
  • Full-load current
  • Rated frequency
  • Motor horsepower
  • Motor speed
  • Motor service factor
  • Starting torque
  • Running torque
  • Load inertia
  • Acceleration time
  • Deceleration time
  • Operating speed range
  • Motor insulation

Pump Variable flow and pressure control
Fan Adjustable airflow
Blower Process airflow control
Conveyor Controlled acceleration and speed
Compressor Adjustable motor speed
Process Machine Speed and torque regulation

The stated configuration uses a Type 1 / IP20 enclosure, forced-air cooling, AC input with precharge, filtering, no external DC terminals, no dynamic braking, removed CM jumper, and no HIM operator module.

For physical planning, the unit belongs to a large Frame 8 MCC-style installation class, with an approximate 800 mm cabinet depth, an overall dimensional class around 2,450 × 600 × 800 mm, and an approximate weight in the 500–600 kg range. These physical figures should be treated as planning references because the final mechanical dimensions and weight can vary with the complete drive and cabinet configuration.

Overall, the 20G1ALE395AN0NNNNN is intended for applications where a large industrial motor requires controlled variable speed, substantial output current, network communication, centralized monitoring, and flexible drive control.

It is particularly relevant to large pumps, fans, blowers, conveyors, compressors, process equipment, material-handling systems, and other heavy industrial machinery where conventional fixed-speed motor operation does not provide sufficient process-control flexibility.
