Introduction
CtrlTechDaily reports that the Allen-Bradley 2094-BC01-M01-S is now available as a key component of the Kinetix 6000 motion control system. This integrated axis module (IAM) combines an inverter and converter section in a single unit, simplifying multi-axis servo drive architectures. The 2094-BC01-M01-S delivers reliable power conversion and precise motor control for demanding industrial automation applications.
Manufactured by Rockwell Automation under the Allen-Bradley brand, this module supports high-speed SERCOS communication via fiber optic media in linear or ring topology. Its integrated Safe Torque Off (STO) functionality enhances operator safety by preventing drive restart after a safety circuit trip, certified to ISO 13849-1 PLe/SIL3.
Key Features
The 2094-BC01-M01-S features a 6 kW converter power section and a 9 A inverter power section, enabling efficient power distribution to connected servo motors. It operates with an AC input voltage range of 324 - 528Vrms, 3-Phase, with nominal voltages of 360 / 480 VAC, making it suitable for global industrial power systems.
This module includes integrated Safe Torque Off (STO) functionality, which meets ISO 13849-1 PLe/SIL3 safety standards. The STO feature prevents unintended motor restart after a safety event, reducing risk during maintenance or emergency stops. With an efficiency rating of 97%, the drive minimizes energy losses and heat generation.
The 2094-BC01-M01-S supports common-bus follower configurations with a DC input voltage of 458 - 747 VDC. Its peak power output reaches 12 kW, providing headroom for short-duration high-torque demands. The module mounts on a power rail and requires 50.8 mm (2.0 in.) installation clearance and a minimum enclosure depth of 198 mm (7.8 in.).
Technical Specifications
The continuous power output to bus is 6 kW, while the continuous output current to bus is 9 A. The bus overvoltage threshold is set at 425V DC, and the bus undervoltage threshold is 275V DC, ensuring stable operation within safe voltage limits. The module weighs 11.1 pounds, facilitating straightforward installation in control cabinets.
The 2094-BC01-M01-S is compatible with a variety of Allen-Bradley servo motors, including Kinetix MP, Kinetix TL/TLY, Kinetix RDB, 1326AB, and F-Series rotary motors, as well as LDC-Series and LDL-Series linear motors and LDAT series linear actuators. It integrates with SERCOS interface modules such as the 1756-MxxSE ControlLogix, 1768-M04SE CompactLogix, and 1784-PM16SE PCI card for flexible system design.
Applications
The 2094-BC01-M01-S is ideal for multi-axis motion control in packaging machinery, where precise synchronization of multiple axes improves throughput and product quality. Its 6 kW converter power and 9 A inverter power support high-speed pick-and-place operations and continuous motion profiles.
In material handling systems, this drive enables coordinated movement of conveyors, sorters, and robotic arms. The STO safety feature enhances worker protection during loading and unloading zones. The module's ability to deliver torque up to 250% of continuous rated current allows for downsizing of power supply and axis modules in some applications.
Assembly lines benefit from the 2094-BC01-M01-S's high-speed SERCOS communication and efficient power conversion. The fiber optic media provides immunity to electrical noise, ensuring reliable data exchange in electrically noisy factory environments.
