Allen Bradley 22A-D4P0N104 VFD – 380-480V AC Drive for Conveyors, Fans & Pumps

Model Allen 22A-D4P0N104

The Allen Bradley 22A-D4P0N104 is a compact adjustable frequency AC drive from the PowerFlex 4 series, engineered to deliver reliable motor speed and torque control for three-phase industrial applications. As the smallest member of the PowerFlex drive family, this 22A-D4P0N104 unit provides an economical yet capable solution for applications ranging from simple fan and pump control to more demanding conveyor and material handling systems. The drive accepts a 380-480V AC three-phase input and produces a corresponding three-phase output up to 460V AC, supporting motors rated at 1.5 kW (2 HP) with an output current of 4 Amps.

The 22A-D4P0N104 incorporates V/Hz control with slip compensation, enabling stable motor operation across the programmable 0-240 Hz output frequency range. Its integrated fixed keypad with a four-digit display and ten additional LED indicators facilitates rapid parameter access and status monitoring without requiring additional interface hardware. The drive ships ready for out-of-box operation from the keypad, with a jumper pre-installed between I/O terminals to enable immediate local control. For system integration, the 22A-D4P0N104 offers RS-485 communication supporting Modbus protocol, along with configurable digital and analog control inputs.

Manufactured by Allen Bradley (Rockwell Automation), the 22A-D4P0N104 represents a mature, field-proven platform deployed across hundreds of thousands of installations worldwide. Its compact frame size A footprint and DIN rail or panel mounting capability make it particularly well-suited for OEM machinery and retrofit projects where space efficiency is critical. The drive includes an internal brake IGBT as standard, providing regenerative braking capability when paired with an appropriate dynamic brake resistor.

Main Features and Advantages

The 22A-D4P0N104 delivers a practical combination of essential drive functionality, compact design, and ease of use that addresses the core needs of industrial motor control applications.

Compact and Panel-Efficient: The 22A-D4P0N104 occupies minimal panel space thanks to its frame size A dimensions of 152 mm by 80 mm. The drive supports DIN rail mounting for quick installation in standard enclosures, and its zero-stacking capability allows side-by-side mounting without air gaps between adjacent drives, further optimizing cabinet density. This space efficiency is particularly valuable in OEM machinery where panel real estate is at a premium.

Simplified Setup and Operation: The 22A-D4P0N104 ships ready for immediate keypad operation, with control keys and a potentiometer active out of the box. The Basic Program Group organizes the ten most commonly adjusted application parameters for rapid configuration without navigating complex menu structures. The integrated four-digit display and LED indicators provide clear feedback for startup, fault diagnosis, and operational status monitoring, reducing commissioning time and simplifying troubleshooting.

Built-in Protective Features: The 22A-D4P0N104 incorporates comprehensive motor and drive protection functions as standard. Electronic motor overload protection follows an I²t curve providing Class 10 protection (150% for 60 seconds, 200% for 3 seconds), guarding motors against sustained overload conditions. Ground fault protection during startup and running detects insulation failures before they escalate. A removable MOV-to-ground jumper allows compatibility with ungrounded or resistance-grounded distribution systems when properly configured.

Flexible Control and Integration: The 22A-D4P0N104 accepts both 0-10V and 4-20 mA analog speed references, along with configurable digital inputs for start, stop, reverse, and programmable functions. The form C relay output can be configured to indicate fault status or other operational conditions. RS-485 communication supporting Modbus protocol enables integration with PLCs and higher-level control systems for networked motor control architectures.
