Features:
- High-capacitance energy storage design delivering 2240 µF and 734 J for DC-bus support functions.
- Scalable DC-bus current handling up to 208 A through parallel module configuration.
- Zero stacking mechanical structure with integrated status indicators and multi-connector interface layout.
The Allen-Bradley 2198-CAPMOD-2240 is part of the Kinetix 5700 accessory module range designed to integrate into DC-bus-based drive systems. The Allen-Bradley 2198-CAPMOD-2240 works alongside axis inverters and power supply modules on the shared power rail. It contributes to system-level capacitance expansion and DC-bus energy handling. The Allen-Bradley 2198-CAPMOD-2240 is compatible with DC-bus power supplies, regenerative bus supplies, and 8720MC-RPS systems.
In system structure, the Allen-Bradley 2198-CAPMOD-2240 supports a voltage range of 276 to 747 VDC and provides 2240 µF capacitance with 734 J energy storage. The Allen-Bradley 2198-CAPMOD-2240 can operate below 104 A DC-bus current individually and supports up to 208 A when connected in parallel configuration. This allows flexible scaling within multi-module drive assemblies. Each Allen-Bradley 2198-CAPMOD-2240 contributes directly to total system capacitance.
The Allen-Bradley 2198-CAPMOD-2240 uses a zero stacking design, enabling compact installation within Kinetix 5700 drive systems. The Allen-Bradley 2198-CAPMOD-2240 includes DC-bus connectors, control input connectors, and status indicators for operational feedback. It is designed with defined mounting hardware and installation clearances for structured assembly. Multiple Allen-Bradley 2198-CAPMOD-2240 modules may be used depending on system capacitance requirements and available installation space.
The 2198-CAPMOD-2240 Allen-Bradley Kinetix 5700 Capacitor Module with Fixed Terminal Block may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Allen-Bradley 2198-CAPMOD-2240 Kinetix 5700 Capacitor Module Specs
General
- Manufacturer Allen-Bradley
- Model 2198-CAPMOD-2240
- Condition New Original ready stock
- Product Family 2198-CAPMOD-DCBUS-IO,2198-DCBUSCOND-RP312
Important Notice: Other accessories, manuals, cables, calibration data, software, etc. are not included with this equipment unless listed in the above stock item description. All prices are shown in USD.
- Zero-Gap Installation: Supports compact side-by-side installation with Kinetix 5700 drives, directly connected via the DC-bus bus on top of the module.
- Location Requirements: Must be installed near the drive with the highest motor power consumption in the DC-bus group for optimal energy balance.
- Vertical Cooling: Sufficient ventilation space (typically 40mm or more) must be provided above and below the module to ensure natural convection cooling of the internal capacitor assembly.
- Parallel Limitation: Up to 3 capacitor modules can be connected in parallel in a single drive system to expand the total bus capacitance of the system.
- Energy Storage: Provides a large capacity of 2240 µF, capable of absorbing the large amount of regenerative energy generated during motor deceleration.
- Current Specifications: Capable of handling up to 35.3 A of continuous current, effectively smoothing voltage fluctuations on the DC bus.
- Low-Loss Design: Extremely low internal equivalent resistance, maintaining high operating efficiency and low heat generation even under high dynamic load cycling.
- Intelligent Integration: Automatically connects to system monitoring via module backplane, achieving bus status synchronization without additional communication cabling.
- High Inertia Load Deceleration: Suitable for rapid braking of equipment with large rotational inertia (such as large turntables and centrifuges), preventing DC bus overvoltage alarms.
- Frequent Start-Stop Cycles: In packaging or palletizing machinery requiring high-speed reciprocating motion, stores deceleration energy for subsequent acceleration, reducing energy consumption.
- Grid Fluctuation Compensation: Acts as an energy buffer under unstable power supply conditions, preventing short-term voltage drops from causing drive shutdown.
- Shared Bus System: Used in multi-axis linkage control systems to coordinate energy flow between drive axes and optimize overall power management of the control cabinet.
