PARKER AH470372U002

Parker Encoder Feedback Board for 590+ Series

Description

The AH470372U002 is an encoder feedback technology board designed by Parker (formerly SSD Drives / Eurotherm Drives) for their renowned 590+ series of DC drives. This module is essential for applications requiring precise closed-loop motor control, enabling the drive to read signals from an incremental encoder for accurate speed and position regulation. It is a vital spare part for maintaining the large installed base of 590+ systems.

Specifications

• Manufacturer: Parker
• Part Number: AH470372U002
• Product Type: Encoder Feedback Board / Technology Card
• Compatibility: Parker 590+ Series DC Drives
• Input Type: Incremental Encoder (TTL/HTL)

FAQ

Question?
Is this board compatible with both the Parker 590+ and the newer DC590+ series drives?
Answer:
This AH470372U002 board is specifically designed for the legacy Parker 590+ series. It is not directly compatible with the newer DC590+ series, which uses a different hardware architecture and option cards.

Question?
What type of encoder signals does this board accept?
Answer:
The AH470372U002 is designed to accept standard TTL/HTL incremental encoder signals (A, B, and Z channels). It is crucial to verify the encoder’s voltage and signal type matches the drive’s configuration parameters for proper operation.

Question?
Does this board require any specific firmware version on the main 590+ drive to function correctly?
Answer:
While generally compatible with the 590+ series, optimal performance and access to all features are ensured when the drive’s main firmware is version 3.x or later. Older firmware versions might have limited functionality with this feedback card.
