PowerFlex 700S Phase II AC Drive Support
Rockwell Automation is committed to maintaining and supporting Allen-Bradley drives and installations.
Included in this commitment is start-up support and consultation for drive applications.
ProtectionPlus Drive Start-Up
With ProtectionPlus Drive Start-Up Services from Rockwell Automation, users can leverage the extensive product and
industry experience of Rockwell Automation technicians to quickly commission drives and reduce the time between
integration and actual start-up.
ProtectionPlus Drive Start-Up Services verify drive installation to ensure proper electrical, mechanical and environmental
criteria are met. This includes verification of power and I/O wiring to the drive, custom drive configuration/tuning to meet
application specific requirements, and diagnosing/troubleshooting problems that occur during a standalone drive start-up.
ProtectionPlus can also extend an eligible product parts warranty and add a labor warranty. For more information about
