Compatible Replacement & Equivalent Models
When the 2097-V34PR6 is unavailable or discontinued, the following models may serve as direct or functional replacements depending on your application requirements:
| Model | Brand | Compatibility Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 2097-V34PR5 | Allen-Bradley | Same series, lower output current (3A); verify motor sizing |
| 2097-V34PR6-LM | Allen-Bradley | Linear motor variant; same drive platform |
| 2097-V32PR2 | Allen-Bradley | 120V input variant; not a direct drop-in for 240V systems |
| Kinetix 300 (2097-Vxxx) | Allen-Bradley | Next-generation successor with EtherNet/IP; requires firmware update |
| Kinetix 350 (2097-Vxxx) | Allen-Bradley | Enhanced successor; single-axis EtherNet/IP indexing |
Note: Always verify electrical ratings, feedback type, and communication protocol before substituting. Contact Konmask for pre-sales compatibility verification.
Why Choose the Original Model
- Proven platform reliability — Kinetix 2000 drives are field-tested across thousands of OEM machine installations worldwide.
- Standalone indexing capability — No PLC or motion controller required for basic indexing tasks, reducing system cost and complexity.
- Compact footprint — Optimized for space-constrained control panels in packaging, assembly, and material handling equipment.
- Rockwell ecosystem integration — Seamless compatibility with Allen-Bradley PLCs, HMIs, and Studio 5000 / RSLogix 5000 software.
- Long service history — Extensive spare parts availability and global technical support network.
Typical Applications
- Packaging machinery (indexing conveyors, rotary tables, pick-and-place)
- Assembly automation (cam-driven indexers, press feeders)
- Printing and labeling equipment
- Textile and winding machines
- Medical device manufacturing lines
- Food and beverage processing equipment
System Compatibility
- Compatible Motors: Allen-Bradley MPL, MPM, and TL-series servo motors with matching feedback
- Compatible PLCs: MicroLogix 1100/1400, CompactLogix, ControlLogix (via DeviceNet or discrete I/O)
- Software: RSLogix 5000 / Studio 5000, DriveExplorer, Motion Analyzer
- Accessories: 2090-series servo cables, shunt resistors, line filters (EMC compliance)
Selection Guide
Use the following criteria to confirm the 2097-V34PR6 is the right drive for your application:
- Step 1 – Voltage: Confirm 240V AC single- or three-phase supply is available at the panel.
- Step 2 – Current: Verify continuous motor current ≤ 6A RMS and peak ≤ 18A. If higher, consider 2097-V34PR6-LM or Kinetix 350.
- Step 3 – Control mode: Standalone indexing (no network) → 2097-V34PR6 is ideal. EtherNet/IP required → upgrade to Kinetix 300/350.
- Step 4 – Feedback: Match encoder type (incremental vs. absolute) to your motor specification.
- Step 5 – Environment: Confirm IP20 rating is sufficient; add enclosure if dusty or wet environment.
- Step 6 – Certifications: UL/CE required → standard 2097-V34PR6 is compliant.

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Is the 2097-V34PR6 still in production?
A: This model is in a mature/end-of-life phase. Rockwell Automation recommends migrating to the Kinetix 300 or Kinetix 350 series for new designs. Konmask maintains stock of original units for MRO and replacement needs.
Q: Can I replace a 2097-V34PR6 with a Kinetix 300?
A: Functionally yes, but the Kinetix 300 uses EtherNet/IP and requires Studio 5000 configuration. It is not a plug-and-play swap — wiring, programming, and motor cable changes may be required.
Q: What is the difference between 2097-V34PR5 and 2097-V34PR6?
A: The PR6 provides 6A continuous output vs. 3A for the PR5. Choose based on your motor’s rated current.
Q: Do you provide a certificate of conformance (CoC)?
A: Yes. CoC and test reports are available upon request for all units.
Q: Can Konmask source discontinued or hard-to-find variants?
A: Yes. Submit an RFQ with your required quantity and delivery timeline to support@konmask.com.
