Selection Guide
Use the following criteria to select the correct Power Stage Interface Board:
- Step 1 — Identify Drive Catalog Number: Locate the full catalog number on the drive nameplate (e.g., 20B-D017A3AYNANC0).
- Step 2 — Confirm Frame Size: Frame size determines board form factor and connector layout. Check the drive manual or Rockwell’s Product Compatibility & Download Center (PCDC).
- Step 3 — Check Hardware Revision: The board revision (Rev A / Rev B) must match or be superseded by the replacement. Mixing incompatible revisions can cause fault codes F005, F012, or F063.
- Step 4 — Verify Firmware Version: Ensure drive firmware is compatible with the replacement board. Konmask can advise on known firmware/hardware revision pairings.
- Step 5 — Choose Supply Condition: Select New OEM for critical production lines; Refurbished for budget-sensitive maintenance; Compatible Replacement for legacy drives where OEM stock is discontinued.

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Can I use 170948 to replace 170947?
A: In most cases yes — 170948 is the updated revision of 170947 and is backward compatible. However, confirm with your drive’s service manual or contact Konmask support.
Q: What fault codes indicate a failed Power Stage Interface Board?
A: Common fault codes include F005 (Overcurrent), F012 (HW Overcurrent), F063 (IGBT Desaturation), and F122 (Power Board Fault). A failed interface board may also cause the drive to not power up or display a blank HIM.
Q: Do I need to re-tune the drive after replacing this board?
A: No motor parameter re-tuning is required. However, verify that all drive parameters are backed up before replacement and restore them after installation.
Q: Is a compatible (non-OEM) board safe to use?
A: Konmask-supplied compatible boards are tested to meet OEM electrical specifications. They are suitable for non-safety-critical applications. For SIL-rated or regulated installations, OEM parts are recommended.
Q: Do you offer exchange / core return programs?
A: Yes. Contact us to discuss core exchange pricing for refurbished units.
