AC servo driveDiscontinued
Allen-Bradley Ultra3000 Digital Servo Drives (2098)
Older digital servo drive family offered with DeviceNet, SERCOS or indexing variants, now discontinued with several Kinetix 5000-series migration paths.
Allen-Bradley lists this series as discontinued. The manufacturer's recommended replacement: Kinetix 5100, Kinetix 5300 or Kinetix 5500 Servo Drives (current Rockwell product page); 2011 guide 2098-AP001 mapped smaller models to Kinetix 300/350, themselves now discontinued. We can help with spares for installed machines, a migration to the replacement, or an alternative.

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.
Network-capable AMC digital drives spanning 10-747 VDC and 120-480 VAC, up to 150 A continuous and 250 A peak (27.4 kW peak power), in PCB, panel, machine and vehicle formats. They support almost any motor type and feedback, plus CANopen, EtherCAT, POWERLINK and Modbus.

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.
