Information About 160-BA04NSF1P1

The 160-BA04NSF1P1 is a Variable Speed Drive (VSD) from the Bulletin 160 Smart Speed Controller (SSC) series. This drive has an input supply voltage requirement of 380-460 VAC, 3-Phase along with an input frequency of 50/60 Hz. It also has an input current rating of 4.6 Amperes and input power of 3700 VA. The drive’s output parameters include voltage range of 380-460 VAC, 3-Phase, a motor applicable output current of 4.0 Amperes, the programmable output frequency of 0-240 Hz, and output power rating of 1.5 kW or 2 Horsepower. This drive has embedded control inputs and output terminals. The discrete input terminals are composed of fixed input terminals such as Start, Stop, Forward / Reverse, and a single fully programmable input. Being a signal follower model drive, it has an analog input terminal that accepts a 1K to 10K Ohms, 2 Watts Minimum potentiometer, a 4-20 mA analog input, and -10 to +10 VDC channels. This drive also has a Form C relay contact output that is rated 0.4A at 125VAC; 0.2A at 230VAC and 2A at 30VDC for resistive outputs and 0.2A at 125VAC; 0.1A at 230VAC and 1A at 30VDC for inductive loads. The 160-BA04NSF1P1 has an Open Type, IP20 enclosure rating It must be mounted within an enclosure that provides adequate protection against industrial contaminants such as dirt, dust, gas, oil, chemicals, water, and similar elements. It supports mounting to a standard 35 mm DIN rail or panel mounting in horizontal orientation. A program keypad module is installed on this drive, allowing operators and users to locally configure, operate, maintain and troubleshoot the drive.

The 160-BA04NSF1P1 is a compact-designed Smart Speed Controller (SSC) from Allen Bradley. This drive is manufactured by Rockwell Automation. This drive is a 3-phase input voltage of 380 to 460 Volts at 50 to 60 Hertz and 4.7 kVA, the drive’s output is rated at 1.5kW, 2 HP, and has an output current rating of 4.0 Amps. The dynamic braking torque with an external resistor is 150% and without an external resistor is 50%. For the IP20 (open style enclosure), the power dissipation is 50 Watts. This controller features electronic motor overload protection, self-generating EDS files, a programmable duty cycle, and a configurable output contact. The 160-BA04NSF1P1’s typical efficiency rate is scaled at 95%, and this module operates efficiently at an ambient temperature between 32 and 122 degrees Fahrenheit. The drive should be stored at a temperature ranging from -40 to 185 degrees Fahrenheit and at a relative humidity ranging from 0 to 95%, non-condensing. As an analog signal follower model drive, it has analog inputs of 4 to 20 mA and -10 to 10 Volts DC with an input impedance of 250 ohms and 100k Ohms respectively. The 160-BA04NSF1P1 comes with a Program Keypad Module, which is situated at the front panel of the controller, which is used to read and program the controller parameters. This module operates in two modes, which are the Display Mode (which is the default and controller power-up mode), and the Program Mode. In the former mode, the controller parameters can only be displayed but not changed while in the latter mode (entered by pressing the ESC key), the controller parameters can be altered. The module has a 6-digit, seven-segment LED display, three keys for controlling input to the drive, and five keys for programming and displaying drive parameters. It also has a Program Mode indicator and two-directional LED indicators.

Frequently Asked Questions about 160-BA04NSF1P1
Question: What is the 160-BA04NSF1P1?
Date Update:16/06/2025
Answer:

The 160-BA04NSF1P1 is a Variable Speed Drive (VSD) from the Allen-Bradley Bulletin 160 SSC (Smart Speed Controllers) series. It’s used to regulate the speed of AC motors in various industrial automation applications. This drive follows analog input signals like 4–20 mA or ±10 VDC to modulate output frequency from 0 to 240 Hz. It supports precise motor control with feedback-free operation, making it suitable for pumps, fans, and conveyors. The built-in keypad allows users to program and monitor system parameters locally.

Question: What control method does it use?
Date Update:16/06/2025
Answer:

This drive utilizes the V/Hz (Volts per Hertz) control method, offering reliable and simple speed regulation for standard AC motors. It's effective for applications where tight torque control is not critical. The V/Hz curve can be customized to match the characteristics of the connected load. Since this is a signal follower model, analog input is used to determine speed, enabling integration with sensors and controllers. The control method is ideal for cost-sensitive automation.

Question: What are the analog input options?
Date Update:16/06/2025
Answer:

This drive supports multiple analog inputs including 4–20 mA, –10 to +10 VDC, and potentiometer (1k–10k Ohm). Each input type has a dedicated impedance to ensure accurate signal interpretation. These inputs allow external controllers or sensors to modulate motor speed in real time. The flexibility supports integration into process control systems without the need for digital protocols. Input signal scaling can be configured via the keypad.

Question: What interface is available for control?
Date Update:16/06/2025
Answer:

The drive comes pre-installed with a Program Keypad Module, which allows full local control and monitoring. It includes a 6-digit, 7-segment LED display and navigation buttons for setting parameters. The keypad operates in two modes: Display Mode (read-only) and Program Mode (parameter edit). An ESC key provides access to program mode for configuration. This makes the drive accessible without needing external software tools.

Question: Is the 160-BA04NSF1P1 still in production?
Date Update:16/06/2025
Answer:

No, this drive model has been discontinued by Rockwell Automation, though it may still be available from third-party suppliers. For new installations, PowerFlex 4 or 525 series are the recommended modern replacements. These newer drives support enhanced diagnostics, USB configuration, and broader communication options. Users with existing systems may still find spare parts and support through Rockwell’s migration programs. It is advisable to plan upgrades where long-term availability is critical.
