PRODUCT DETAILS
2198-H025-ERS — Kinetix 5500 Servo Drive, Hardwired Safety, 240V/480V Dual-Voltage, 20A Peak
The 2198-H025-ERS is a Frame 2 single-axis servo drive from the Kinetix 5500 family, supporting both 240V (195–264V) and 480V (324–528V) three-phase AC input on the same physical unit. Continuous output current is 8.0A RMS, with 20A peak capability, delivering 2.4 kW at the 240V class and up to 5.1 kW at 480V. The "ERS" designation indicates hardwired Safe Torque Off, active from the factory and driven by physical safety connector inputs rather than a network-based safety connection.

Hardwired Safety on a Dual-Voltage Drive
Supporting two voltage classes on one drive simplifies spare parts stocking for facilities or integrators building machines for different regional supply voltages — one catalog number covers both the 240V and 480V scenario rather than requiring separate inventory for each. The hardwired STO connector ships active out of the box; connecting the safety inputs to a safety relay or safety PLC's hardwired output enables the function immediately, and cascading terminals allow the same safety signal to extend to adjacent drives in a multi-axis bus-sharing system without separate wiring runs back to the safety source for each axis.
Where the safety architecture doesn't require this function — a single-axis application with no guarding interlock needed at the drive level — bypass wiring connects both safety inputs together to disable STO, though this should only be done where the risk assessment genuinely supports it.
FAQ
Q: Can this drive run from single-phase input?
This specific drive variant supports three-phase input only at both voltage classes. A separate single-phase-capable model in the same power class is available for installations without three-phase supply.
Q: Does the drive automatically detect which input voltage class is connected?
Yes. The drive accepts either the 240V or 480V three-phase range without a manual voltage selection step — internal circuitry adapts to the connected input within the specified ranges.
Q: Is a capacitor module compatible with this drive for shared-bus configurations?
Yes, in shared-bus multi-axis configurations. Note that standalone single-phase operation on certain related low-current models in this family is excluded from capacitor module compatibility — verify the specific bus configuration against the system design guide.
Q: What feedback connector kit does this drive use?
The drive includes the connector kit for Kinetix VP motor feedback as standard. For other compatible motor families requiring a different feedback protocol, a separate converter kit is available.
