Permanent Magnet Motors
Most permanent magnet motors are compatible with the PowerFlex 755 drive.
You must obtain the motor manufacturer’s specification for the motor prior to
contacting Rockwell Automation Technical Support.
PowerFlex 755 drives cannot accept a resolver. Therefore, the motors must have
either a pulse encoder or absolute feedback device (for example, SSI, Heidenhain,
Stegmann/Sick hyperface).
This list contains the name of manufacturers that produce motors that are
recommended for use with PowerFlex 755 drives.
WEG Electric Corp.
WEG motors can have a start winding and a run winding. Always wire the
drive to the run winding.
Wittenstein
Work well with PowerFlex 755 drives.
Wound rotor manufacturers
Wound Rotors work with PowerFlex 755 drives. You must short the external
resistors when using these motors.

Notes
Baldor Electric Company
Work well with PowerFlex 755 drives. Verify that you are using either the
Surface Mount (SM) or Interior Mounted (IPM) motors and select the
appropriate control algorithm.
KollMorgan
Work well with PowerFlex 755 drives.
Oswald Electric Motors
PowerTec
Work well with PowerFlex 755 drives, but cannot use resolver feedback.
Rockwell Automation
MPL, MPM, and RDB motors work well with PowerFlex drives. Use Heidenhain
feedback for RDB motors.
