Bonfiglioli ANG

Bonfiglioli frequency inverter ANG series: The drive designed for High Performance applications.

Thanks to a high-performance micro controller, enhanced functionalities are embedded such as cyclic synchronous positioning mode (CSP) with cubic interpolation, brake control and evaluation of feedback contact. A new positioning configuration is dedicated for travelling drives in crane applications. Our new single axis for the control of servo motors and induction motors delivers high dynamic response, high performance and application versatility. Bonfiglioli develops Active Next Generation to meet the specific requirements of special machinery in a large range of Industries. Moreover, ANG series support many Ethernet Fieldbuses like, PROFINET, EtherCAT, EtherNet/IP and VARAN. With this new servo inverter series, Bonfiglioli offers the broadest connectivity with the most advanced control technology and the highest power density.

Bonfiglioli drive ANG series control unit / KP500.

Active Next Generation is designed to give the highest flexibility in drive hardware to suit every control requirement. Machine designers can select an optional Keypad for diagnosis or parameterization independent from a Personal Computer. An optional remote unit gives the possibility to mount the keypad on a cabinet door or convert a keypead into a handheld.

Bonfiglioli vfd ANG series interface / KP-232.

Serial interface KP232 can be used as an alternative to control unit KP500. This connection enables parameterisation, monitoring, setting management, inverter control and even commissioning from a PC or laptop computer. The serial point-to-point connection between inverter and PC complies with specifications for transmission between data terminals (DTE) and data communication equipment (DCE), requiring, in this mode, a serial pin-to-pin cable with SUBD-9 male connector on the inverter side. The KP232 interface is compatible with lines up to 15 metres. The serial transmission protocol ensures high data security and does not require handshake signals between computer and inverter.

ISO-USB Interface.
The ISO-USB Interface links the KP232 or CM-232 to a USB port of your PC. This interface uses an isolated USB/RS232 converter to improve the robustness against possible EMC disturbances. This Interface can be used with PCs using Windows 10, Windows 8/8.1, Windows Vista and Windows XP with FTDI drivers provided with the VPlus installation package. The Interface uses USB serial numbers and therefore the PC is able to assign uniquely the COM port.

Safe Torque Off (STO).

The Functional Safety Function “Safe Torque Off” (STO) with the safety integrity level SIL 3 (EN 61508 and DIN IEC 61800-5-2) and Performance level PL e (EN 13849-1) is implemented into standard Active Next Generation inverter range. When triggering the STO function the frequency inverter switches off the rotating field to the motor. Deactivation of the inverter supply is carried out via two switch off paths in no-signal current mode, thus performing redundant switch off control. Continuous monitoring tests are done by the inverter to detect possible control failures. “Safe Torque Off“ function greatly improves safety level of your automation system without the need of additional components.
