Rockwell Automation releases Kinetix 5700 regenerative bus supply

June 28, 2019 – Rockwell Automation has developed the Kinetix 5700 regenerative bus supply for industrial companies to reuse energy.

The bus supply regenerates excess energy and puts it back on the facility’s grid or makes it available for plant-wide use. It also allows plant workers to monitor energy usage over EtherNet/IP, so they can make better energy-related decisions.

In addition to reducing energy costs, the bus supply can help companies achieve consistent machine performance anywhere in the world. It performs common DC bus voltage regulation across the entire voltage input range, which helps protect connected assets from voltage dips and inconsistent power.

The bus supply includes a built-in LC filter.
