Abstract:
The present disclosure includes drive modules for motor-drive assemblies of an industrial automation system. The drive modules may include a housing having a cavity and may also include power circuitry and control circuitry. The power circuitry may convert input DC power to three-phase controlled frequency AC power and may supply the three-phase controlled frequency AC power to a motor. The control circuitry may apply control signals to control operation of the motor. The drive module may also include an adapter that couples to a first end of the housing and couples the housing to the motor. The adapter may be removable and sized according to a frame size of the motor such that the drive module is compatible with the motor. The housing may be independent of the frame size of the motor. As such, the housing may be interchangeable for any motor frame size and/or motor power.
