2094-BC04-M03-S | Allen-Bradley Integrated Axis Module - Petro Auto Tech

Product Overview

The 2094-BC04-M03-S is a Kinetix 6000 Integrated Axis Module (IAM) from Allen-Bradley, manufactured by Rockwell Automation. This 400 Volt Class module integrates a converter and inverter section to deliver precise motion control for demanding industrial automation applications. It features Safe Torque Off functionality for enhanced safety and is designed for high-performance servo drive systems.

Technical Specifications Analysis

The 2094-BC04-M03-S operates on an AC input voltage of 324-528 Volts rms 3 Phase (360-480 Volts nom) with a frequency range of 47-63 Hertz. Its converter section delivers 28 kW output, while the inverter section provides 30 A output current. The module achieves 97% efficiency and supports a velocity loop bandwidth of 500 Hz and a current loop bandwidth of 1300 Hz. PWM frequency is set at 4 kHz. Internal shunt capabilities include 200 Watts continuous power and 22.5 kW peak power with a 28.75 Ohm resistor. The module dissipates 94-255 Watts of power depending on load and weighs 21.1 lbs (9.60 kg). Operating temperature range is 32-122 F (0-50 C).

Application Scenarios & Usage Methods

This IAM is ideal for multi-axis motion control in packaging, material handling, and machine tool applications. In a packaging line, the 2094-BC04-M03-S coordinates multiple servo axes for precise cut-to-length and registration control. For material handling, it synchronizes conveyor drives and robotic pick-and-place units. The module mounts at the leftmost position of the power rail, with other modules placed to its right. Use the peak enhancement feature available on 400V-class Series B and C units to handle momentary overloads up to 250% peak current.

Installation Guide & Packing List

Install the 2094-BC04-M03-S at the leftmost position of the power rail. First mount the IAM, then add the IPIM, axis modules, shunt module, and slot filler to the right. For ungrounded or high impedance power systems, adjust the ground jumper by removing the module from the rail, opening it, and moving the jumper from the default grounded position (P16-P17 shorted) to the ungrounded position (P18-P19 shorted). The module ships with a wiring plug connector set for motor power (MP) and motor/resistive brake power (BC). Connector kits for input/output interfaces, safety signals, and motor feedback are not included and must be ordered separately (catalog numbers 2090-K6CK-D44M, 2090-K6CK-D44S0, and 2090-K6CK-D15M).

Purchasing Advice

When selecting the 2094-BC04-M03-S, verify your system voltage matches the 400/460VAC input range and confirm the 30 A inverter current meets your motor requirements. For applications requiring high overload capacity, choose Series B or C units with 250% peak current rating. Petro Auto Tech offers genuine Allen-Bradley modules with fast shipping and expert support to help you integrate this IAM into your Kinetix 6000 system.

Repair & Maintenance Tips

Regularly inspect the 2094-BC04-M03-S for dust accumulation on heatsinks and ensure adequate airflow for cooling. Operate the module within the specified 32-122 F (0-50 C) temperature range. Check all power connections for tightness and verify ground jumper settings match your system configuration. Monitor power dissipation levels; if the module consistently operates near 255 Watts, review system loading to prevent thermal stress. Store spare modules in a clean, dry environment.
