PRODUCT DETAILS
25B-B062N104 525 Series AC Drive — 0.37 kW / 0.5 HP, 120V AC Single-Phase, EtherNet/IP
The 25B-B062N104 is a 0.37 kW (0.5 HP) variable frequency drive from the 525 series, configured for 120V AC single-phase input. It delivers 6.2A output current and integrates an embedded EtherNet/IP port alongside a secondary option port for additional communication modules. Compact enough for panel mounting in tight spaces, it suits low-power applications where network connectivity is a requirement rather than an add-on.
The drive supports a full range of motor control modes — V/Hz, sensorless vector, and closed-loop with encoder feedback via an optional card — making it versatile across general-purpose and more demanding positioning tasks. Onboard I/O includes analog and digital inputs, a relay output, and a safe-torque-off (STO) input terminal.

Application Scenarios
Conveyor and Small Material Handling
Low-power belt conveyors, roller tables, and parts feeders running from single-phase 120V supplies are a natural fit. The built-in EtherNet/IP port allows these drives to report status and accept speed commands directly from a ControlLogix or CompactLogix system without a separate communication module.
Pump and Fan Control
HVAC fan coil units, small coolant pumps, and condensate pumps in commercial or light industrial settings benefit from variable-speed control for energy savings. The analog input accepts a 0–10V signal from a building automation controller or pressure transducer for closed-loop pressure or flow regulation.
Textile and Winding Machinery
Thread tension control and take-up reel drives require smooth, stable speed regulation at low output frequencies. SVC mode maintains torque output down to near-zero speed without needing an encoder, reducing mechanical complexity.
Laboratory and Test Equipment
Low-power test rigs and agitator drives in R&D environments often operate from standard single-phase outlets. The compact frame size fits into instrument enclosures, and the programmable I/O supports custom interlock logic without external relays.
Installation Notes
- Mount vertically in a UL-approved enclosure. Maintain minimum clearances: 50 mm above and below, 25 mm on each side.
- Install a line reactor or EMC filter on the input if the supply is shared with large inductive loads.
- STO wiring: the safe-torque-off terminals (S1, S2, +24V) must be wired to a safety relay or safety PLC output to meet Category 3 / PLd. Do not jumper them for normal operation.
- EtherNet/IP: supports DLR topology. Use standard Cat5e/Cat6 cable; maximum segment length 100 m.
- Back up drive parameters using the HIM or Connected Components Workbench before commissioning to simplify field replacement.
FAQ
Q: Does this drive need an external EMC filter for CE compliance?
The drive includes an internal EMC filter. For CE compliance in environments with strict conducted emission limits (Category C2), an additional external filter may be needed depending on cable lengths. Short motor cables under 10 m typically pass without extra filtering.
Q: Can this drive run on a 240V single-phase supply?
No. The 25B-B062N104 is configured for 100–120V AC single-phase input only. A different catalog number is required for 240V applications.
Q: How is the EtherNet/IP port configured initially?
The drive uses BOOTP by default. Connect to a network with a BOOTP server, or use the HIM to set a static IP. After that, Studio 5000 or Connected Components Workbench can discover and configure it.
Q: What happens if ambient temperature exceeds 40°C?
Derating begins at 40°C — reduce output current by approximately 2% per degree Celsius up to the 50°C maximum. Running at full load above 40°C without derating will trigger an overtemperature fault.
Q: Is an encoder required for vector control?
Not for sensorless vector (SVC) mode — it estimates speed from current and voltage. Closed-loop vector control requires the 25-ENC-1 encoder option card and a shaft-mounted encoder.
