Control Module AC30V, Incl. Key Pad

The AC30 variable speed series is a modular product that allows users to select the power stack, control module, IO and communication modules and accessories to perfectly match the application requirements, making it a highly customisable yet cost-effective solution. The three interchangeable control modules form the basis of the range: the standard AC30V control module, the AC30P module with a host of advanced connectivity options, and the AC30D module which adds dual encoder system capability. Combined with one of the AC30 power modules, a variable speed drive is produced, providing the user with exceptional levels of motor control, from simple open loop pumps and fans to closed loop process line applications. Note! The AC30 power modules are available separately and offer powers of up to 450 kW - see the "AC30 Series [Power Modules]" page in the recommended products section for more information.

Features/Benefits:
■ AC30V standard control module:
The AC30V is the basic drive for stand-alone applications. Much more than a basic pump and fan drive, its programme can be modified with our easy-to-use "Parker Drive Quicktool" (PDQ) to match your exact needs. The finished application programme can then be downloaded multiple times using a simple SD card. With full access from any network via its own IP address, the drive can be fully integrated into any automation system via the single, top-mounted Ethernet port.

AC30P advanced control module:
Supporting the latest developments in the 'Internet of Things' and utilising principles discussed in Industry 4.0, the AC30P is fully equipped with Profinet, Ethernet IP and Modbus TCP/IP via dual Ethernet ports. Utilising our full range of software tools, this allows for more advanced applications, including multiple drive configurations. Connect via one port and access multiple drives supported by 1588 time-synchronised peer-to-peer communication.

AC30D advanced control module (with dual coding function):
The AC30D module gives you the great features of the AC30P as well as additional inbuilt terminals to allow dual encoder inputs and an encoder output. This gives the AC30 "system board functionality" allowing "electronic line shaft", so with this control module we can offer phase locking between drives and register control. This also frees up the I/O connector slot to allow even more I/O devices to be added if required.

Areas of use:
- Industrial pumps
- Driven pumps
- Industrial fans
- Conveyors / Handling
- Lifts / elevators
- Cranes and lifting devices
- Centrifuges
- Extruders
- Test benches
- Wind machines

Parker offers easy-to-use software tools for all experience levels; enabling users to manage any application. Simple applications can be configured in seconds and more complex applications can be configured in the simplest and most logical way. Programming can be done via the keypad, Parker Drive QuickTool software or the Codysys-based Parker Drive Developer with full IEC 61131 PLC functionality. The AC30 gives users access to a large library of application macros and processed examples. Users can freely develop their own applications, but they can also save time and development costs by accessing and customising examples of ready-made solutions.

In addition, all AC30 series control modules can now be programmed with DSELite or DSE890, when used with the user-installable LinkNet firmware. The LinkNet firmware is included with DSELite and DSE890 and can be installed via EtherNet or via an SD card. It offers a familiar but full-featured programming environment and has built-in support for both Modbus TCP/IP and Ethernet IP, as well as the full range of IO and feedback option cards.
