Product Description
The Allen-Bradley 150-A97NA-8L2ND is an open-type, solid-state smart motor controller (SMC-2) designed for three-phase 200-230V AC (50/60 Hz) input with a voltage tolerance of -15%/+10%. It supports motors up to 30 HP at 200/230V AC and 75 HP at 460/575V, with corresponding kW ratings of 63 kW at 500V AC, 55 kW at 415V AC, 45 kW at 380V AC, and 25 kW at 220V AC, and a maximum current rating of 97A. It also offers a single-phase 100-120V AC (50/60 Hz, -15%/+10% tolerance) interface option. The controller dissipates a maximum of 285W, has a 45VA heatsink fan, and uses a protective module with a 230V AC line side. It operates optimally between 0-50C and at altitudes below 2000m, with a storage temperature range of -40 to 85C. Operation modes include current limit start, full voltage start, and soft start. A dual-purpose LED indicator monitors status, three-phase power presence, and energy-saving features that detect zero or light motor loads. The LED also indicates faults like phase loss during start, stalled motor during run, and shorted SCR. Configuration is simplified with a rotary digital switch and DIP switches.
Is Your Device Showing These Signs?
The Allen Bradley 150-A97NA-8L2ND SMC Flex Smart Motor Controller commonly experiences issues such as failed SCRs, requiring replacement to restore proper motor control. Overload faults are frequent, often stemming from incorrect current settings or motor insulation breakdown, necessitating recalibration or motor replacement. Communication errors on the DeviceNet network are addressed through troubleshooting cabling, node addresses, and baud rates. Power supply failures within the SMC Flex unit cause operational disruptions and require module replacement. Firmware corruption leads to erratic behavior, necessitating a firmware upgrade or re-flash.
