Feature Overview
This document details differences between the GPD515/G5 and F7 product to assist in product transition and new product
introduction.
GPD515/G5 Drive
The GPD 515/G5 drive is a general-
purpose drive, intended for a broad
range of applications in Industrial
Automation. Accordingly, it is
available with many choices of I/O,
communications, and software. It is
available in constant torque ratings,
3/4 to 500 horsepower. The G5
HHP is available to 1500 HP.

F7 Drive
The F7 drive is positioned as the
Industrial Workhorse. It is the
best choice in a single drive
format for every conventional
industrial drive application in its
horsepower range of ½ to 500 hp.
It is dual rated to enable best
choice for Normal (Variable
Torque) machine loads and
Heavy Duty (Constant torque)
machine loads.
F7 Performance
• Auto-tuning 3-Methods (R1/Static/Dynamic)
• Static no load auto-tuning offers same torque
accuracy performance as dynamic auto-tuning at
base speed & below
• Dual rating: Heavy Duty 150% 60 secs/ Normal
Duty 110% 60 secs
• DC input compatible (all models) simplified
connection to DC power, removal of internal DC
bus choke not required.
