System Architecture & Signal Flow
The 22C-D060A103 accepts 3-phase 240VAC mains input through L1/L2/L3 terminals, rectifies to DC bus, and inverts via IGBT switching to deliver variable-frequency 3-phase output at T1/T2/T3. Speed reference is accepted via analog input (0–10V or 4–20mA), digital preset speeds, or RS-485 DSI serial command. The integrated dynamic braking transistor connects to an external resistor for deceleration energy dissipation. Control logic operates at 24VDC internally, with optoisolated digital inputs for Run/Stop, direction, and fault reset commands.

Technical FAQ
Q: Is the 22C-D060A103 compatible with single-phase 240V input?
A: No. This model requires 3-phase 200–240VAC input. For single-phase applications, refer to the 22F series (PowerFlex 4).
Q: Can this drive control a 1HP motor?
A: Yes. The 6.0A / 1.5kW rating comfortably drives standard 1HP (0.75kW) and 2HP (1.5kW) 240V 3-phase induction motors.
Q: What communication protocol does it support?
A: The 22C-D060A103 supports RS-485 with Rockwell’s DSI (Drive Serial Interface) protocol. Modbus RTU is also supported via parameter configuration.
Q: Is a keypad included?
A: A basic integral keypad is included. The optional remote LCD keypad (22-HIM-A3) provides enhanced parameter access and copy-cat functionality.
Q: What is the difference between 22C and 22F series?
A: The 22C (PowerFlex 4M) accepts 3-phase input; the 22F (PowerFlex 4) accepts single-phase input. Both share similar parameter structures and DSI communication.
