Product Introduction
The Allen-Bradley 2198-BARCON-85DC200 is a DC bus link component designed for the Kinetix 5700 motion control platform. It provides a reliable and efficient method for distributing DC bus power between multiple drive modules, enabling energy sharing and reducing overall system power consumption.
With an 85 mm length and a 200A current rating, this bus connector is engineered for high-current applications where stable and low-loss power transmission is critical. Its open-style, mountable design allows for flexible installation within control cabinets, making it suitable for compact and modular drive architectures.
The 2198-BARCON-85DC200 plays a key role in multi-axis systems by enabling common DC bus configurations, improving system efficiency, and reducing the need for multiple power supplies. It is particularly useful in regenerative systems where excess energy from one axis can be reused by others.
