Why the Parker AC30 is a must-have for your business

When it comes to drive solutions, you want a product that delivers top-notch performance, reliability, and flexibility. That’s exactly what the Parker AC30 Series drives offer. As one of the most powerful drives in Parker’s range, the AC30 series is a game-changer, especially with the growing trend of obsolescence in the industrial automation world.

In this blog, we’ll explore why the Parker AC30 is a must-have for your business, highlight its unique selling points, and explain how SDS Drives can support you with purchasing, installing, and maintaining these drives.


Why the Parker AC30 Stands Out

1. Unmatched Power – Up to 450 kW
One of the AC30’s most impressive features is its massive power capacity—it supports up to 450 kW, making it the largest drive in Parker’s portfolio. This level of power output means the AC30 is ideal for heavy-duty industrial applications, from water treatment plants to large manufacturing facilities.

With this drive, you don’t need to compromise on performance. Whether you’re running large conveyors, pumps, fans, or compressors, the AC30 delivers smooth and reliable motor control, even in the most demanding environments.

2. Future-Proof: Still in Production Despite Obsolescence
In a world where industrial drives are constantly becoming obsolete, the Parker AC30 stands out as one of the few that is still being manufactured. Obsolescence is a major issue across industries—many older drives are no longer supported by manufacturers, leaving businesses scrambling for replacements or costly workarounds.

Fortunately, the Parker AC30 Series is not going anywhere. As a current, actively supported product line, you can invest in the AC30 with the peace of mind that parts, software, and support will be available for years to come.

3. Fully Modular & Flexible
The AC30 Series is designed with flexibility in mind. Whether you need a simple fan or pump control or a more complex multi-axis setup, the AC30 can handle it. Its modularity means that the drive can grow with your application—adding functionality as needed without the need for a complete system overhaul.

It supports everything from basic motor speed control to advanced process automation, with the ability to integrate seamlessly into your existing infrastructure. Additionally, its open communications architecture ensures compatibility with a wide range of industrial protocols, including Ethernet, Profibus, and CANopen.
