Notes on this data
Product page: peak torque 2.76-73.5 N.m, 0.4-3.16 kW. Profile (VPH-PP001B, Jan 2020): continuous stall approx 0.8-18.67 N.m (480 V) / 1.07-8.44 N.m (240 V); peak 2.69-67.8 N.m (480 V) - peak max differs from product page (73.5). 165 mm frame 480 V only. Application wording inferred from hygienic positioning.

Typical applications
Alternatives that meet or exceed these figures
Engineers often come to us with an Allen-Bradley part number and leave with an alternative that is easier to source, quicker to deliver or a better fit for the machine. These 3 series from our supply network are the closest match on published figures.
Kinco's established AC servo motor range from 40 to 180 mm frames, covering 50 W to 7.5 kW and up to 48 Nm rated torque. Standard feedback is a 2500-line incremental encoder with Hall commutation, with absolute options and a resolver on the 180 mm frame. Pairs with FD2S and CD2S drives.

Figures are the highest published for each series and are not always measured the same way. A higher figure is not automatically a better choice: mounting, duty cycle, feedback, connectors and approvals matter too. An engineer will check the fit against your application before recommending anything.
