Ultra5000 Intelligent Positioning Drive 3 kW 2098-IPD-030 (discontinued)
| Rockwell lifecycle status | Discontinued 01/04/2013 (read on 5 November 2026) |

| Replacement | TDL proposal (Rockwell names no catalog number) |
The Rockwell Product Lifecycle Status tool (read 05/11/2026, description "DRIVE 15A/30A ULT MC") shows Discontinued 01/04/2013 with replacement category "No planned RA replacement" and no replacement catalog number (N/A). No Rockwell migration guide for Ultra5000 was found; 2198-RM003B covers Ultra3000 drives only. See the TDL proposal below. TDL proposal (not a Rockwell statement): migrate to Kinetix 5100, the family Rockwell recommends for Ultra3000 and Kinetix 3. The lifecycle-tool description ("DRIVE 15A/30A ULT MC") gives 15 A / 30 A without stating the current basis. If these are 0-peak values, 2198-E1020-ERS (13.4 (18.95) / 53.03 (74.98) A rms (0-pk) continuous/peak, 2198-RM003B Table 8, p. 15) covers them; Table 8 makes the same pairing for the 15 A / 30 A (0-pk) Ultra3000 2098-DSD-030. If 15 A is rms, the next size 2198-E2030-ERS (17.9 / 55.95 A rms continuous/peak, 2198-RM003B Table 3, p. 10) needs a 170–253 V three-phase supply, while the 2098-IPD-030 is wired single phase (2098-IN001E p. 2-9). Read the drive nameplate first. Confirm the load and the motor/feedback compatibility (motor may need replacing) before ordering. The Ultra5000 runs user programs written in C with the Motion Library (2098-IN001E p. P-3); none of the Kinetix 5100 control modes in 2198-RM003B Table 2 (p. 9) runs user C code, so the motion program must be rewritten, as Kinetix 5100 PR-mode indexing (99 program registers) or as Logix motion in a controller over EtherNet/IP (IO mode). This is not a drop-in replacement.
