Allen-Bradley 20BC2P1A3AYNANC0 PowerFlex 700 0.75 kW Drive
Description
PowerFlex 700 vector-capable drive, 0.75 kW, frame 0
The Allen-Bradley 20BC2P1A3AYNANC0 is a PowerFlex 700 AC drive in frame 0, with 400V AC three-phase three-phase input. A 0.75 kW drive suits small precision machines such as feeders, small pumps or spindle axes where the vector option is wanted for tight speed control.
Reading the number: 20B is the PowerFlex 700 series, C is the 400V class, 2P1 is the 0.75 kW rating, A is IP20 NEMA/UL Type 1 with conformal coat, 3 the LCD display with numeric keypad, and the Y brake-IGBT and CE-filter fields follow. Position 15, C, selects vector control.

Ratings and overload data from 20B-TD001
The 20B-TD001 rating tables give 2.1 A continuous output, 2.4 A for 60 seconds and 3.2 A for 3 seconds (110% for one minute and 150% for three seconds). Input is 1.8 A at 1.3 kVA. As the smallest size in the 400V ladder after 20BC1P3 (0.37 kW) it is an entry rating, with 20BC3P5 (1.5 kW, 3.5 A) next in frame 0.
Fuse and breaker entries are printed per catalog base number. Speed regulation is 0.5% of base speed over 80:1 in sensorless vector with slip compensation; in full vector control without feedback it is 0.1% across 120:1, and with an encoder 0.001%. Torque regulation without feedback is plus or minus 5%.
Mounting limits and circuit protection
The Type 1 version runs without derating from 0 to 40 C and the open-type configuration to 50 C; storage is -40 to +70 C. Altitude is 1000 m without derating and humidity 5 to 95% non-condensing. For pollution degree 3 and 4 locations use an IP54 / Type 12 enclosure.
The datasheet lists for 140M motor protection breakers of 140M-C2E-B25 or 140M-D8E-B25 as the short-circuit and thermal protection choice. With the vector option, class 10 overload and motor over-temperature protection meet NEC 430.126(A)(2).
Ordering and documents
Use the complete 16-character catalog number 20BC2P1A3AYNANC0, since voltage, enclosure, keypad, brake and filter options are all encoded in it. I/O, feedback and communication option modules are ordered separately. The hosted document is Rockwell technical data 20B-TD001 (September 2023 edition).
Seven Star LLC is an independent supplier in Muscat and quotes on request; please confirm every rating against the current Rockwell documents before ordering.
Before requesting 20BC2P1A3AYNANC0, collect a few facts that decide whether the drive is the right one: what the motor nameplate says, how the load behaves at start (a light fan or a heavy conveyor), the available supply, the ambient temperature in the panel and the control method. With those details we can answer quickly and flag anything that needs checking against the Rockwell documents.

About brand
Allen-Bradley is the brand of Rockwell Automation for industrial control: ControlLogix and CompactLogix controllers, I/O systems, PanelView operator terminals, PowerFlex drives, motor control and industrial network equipment. The company began in Milwaukee in 1903, when Lynde Bradley and Dr. Stanton Allen formed the Compression Rheostat Company to make the motor speed controller Bradley had invented in 1901. It took the name Allen-Bradley in 1909 and was bought by Rockwell International in 1985. Since 2001 its owner has been Rockwell Automation, which is still headquartered in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.

| Name | Allen-Bradley Company from 1909 |
| Ownership | Acquired by Rockwell International in 1985 for about USD 1.65 billion; a brand of Rockwell Automation (NYSE: ROK) since 2001 |

Reading Allen-Bradley catalogue numbers
The first digits of an Allen-Bradley catalogue number identify the platform, which tells you what is compatible with what. 1756 is ControlLogix (chassis-based, used for large process and plant control), 1769 is CompactLogix 5370 with Compact I/O, 5069 is CompactLogix 5380 with Compact 5000 I/O, 1734 is POINT I/O, 1794 and 5094 are FLEX and FLEX 5000 distributed I/O, 1746 and 1747 belong to the older SLC 500 family, 1766 is MicroLogix 1400 and 2080 is Micro800. For drives, 25B is PowerFlex 525 and 22B is PowerFlex 40; in a code such as 25B-D010N114, "D" means 380–480 V, "010" is the output current rating, and N114 instead of N104 means the drive has an integrated EMC filter. Many plants in the region still run SLC 500 and older MicroLogix systems, which Rockwell has discontinued, so exact spares and migration to CompactLogix are both common requests.
Where Allen-Bradley products are used
In Oman and the GCC, Allen-Bradley controllers and drives run on oil and gas facilities, water treatment and pumping stations, cement, food and beverage and packaging plants, and on machines supplied by American OEMs. ControlLogix is often the platform for plant control systems, while PowerFlex drives are used on pumps, fans and conveyors.

Ordering Allen-Bradley products: what we need
Send the full catalogue number and the series letter from the label (for example 1756-EN2T Series D), because firmware and compatibility can change between series. For drives, add the motor power, voltage and filter option. For a discontinued SLC 500 or MicroLogix part, tell us whether you need the exact spare or a migration proposal.
