The Allen-Bradley 20-COMM-E Ethernet Communication Adapter enhances the capability of PowerFlex 70 and 700 series drives by providing seamless integration into Ethernet networks for advanced monitoring and control. Supporting communication speeds of up to 100 Mbps in both full and half-duplex, this adapter can handle up to 30 TCP or 16 CIP connections, ensuring robust network performance with an RPI rate of as low as 5ms. Compatible with Allen-Bradley PLCs such as PLC5, SLC500, and MicroLogix 1100/1400, as well as CompactLogix and ControlLogix controllers, it complies with several international standards (UL508C, CSA, EN50178, EN61800-3) and functions optimally between -10 to 50 °C with relative humidity between 5 to 95%. Despite its advanced features, users should avoid installation in environments with corrosive elements to ensure durability and reliable operation.
