Product Details
Functional Overview
The 25B-D013N104 is a high-performance variable frequency drive within the Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 525 family, engineered for sophisticated motor control in modular industrial architectures. This specific model provides 5.5 kW (7.5 HP) of power output and is housed in a Frame C chassis. It features a dual-port design that supports standard EtherNet/IP™ connectivity, facilitating seamless integration into Logix-based control environments. The PowerFlex 525 series is particularly valued for its "Permanent Magnet Motor Control" and "Safe Torque Off" capabilities, ensuring both energy efficiency and operational safety.
Electrical and Performance Specifications
The 25B-D013N104 operates on a 480V three-phase input and is designed for high-duty cycles in demanding environments. Note that while original documentation may occasionally misidentify the product line, this is a dedicated PowerFlex 525 series component, not PowerFlex 40P.

Tech & Buying Guide
Strategic Selection: Choosing the Right SCADA Software for Your PLC Project
In industrial automation, the SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system acts as the bridge between raw machine data and actionable human intelligence. Selecting the incorrect software platform can lead to integration bottlenecks, scalability issues, and excessive long-term maintenance costs. As an automation consultant with 15 years of experience, I have guided many projects through the selection process. Below are the essential criteria for choosing a platform that ensures both performance and longevity.
Ensuring Operational Continuity: The Strategic Value of Redundant Automation Systems
In modern industrial landscapes, unplanned downtime is the ultimate adversary. For sectors relying on complex PLC and DCS architectures, a single hardware failure can trigger catastrophic production losses. Therefore, implementing redundant automation systems is no longer a luxury; it is a fundamental requirement for mission-critical operations. In this article, I analyze why redundancy remains the backbone of reliable industrial infrastructure.
Selecting the Right Cables for Industrial Automation: A Comprehensive Guide
Selecting the appropriate cabling infrastructure is critical for the success of any industrial automation project. Improper cable selection often leads to signal degradation, system instability, and costly downtime. As an automation engineer, I frequently see projects compromised by poor cabling choices in harsh industrial environments. This guide simplifies the complex landscape of cabling to help you make informed decisions for your PLC, DCS, and control systems.
