    • Internal Ballast Power: 135 W continuous
  • Functional Features:
    • 4-Quadrant Operation: Handles motoring and regenerative braking efficiently.
    • Integrated Braking: Built-in ballast circuit and resistor, no external shunt resistor strictly required for light regen.
    • Monitoring: LED indicators for over/under voltage and thermal status.
    • Commutation: Trapezoidal (6-step) commutation logic.
  • Material & Structural Features:
    • Form Factor: Compact Eurocard dual-board design for 19-inch racks.
    • Cooling: Forced ventilation​ (Fan assisted, critical for 12A continuous rating).
    • Protection: IP00 (Requires installation in a protected cabinet).
  • Application Scenarios: Retrofit of older SM-series motor systems, textile machinery, paper converting, legacy CNC axes.
  • Installation & Notes: Mandatory forced air cooling​ must be operational before enabling. Set PI gains carefully to avoid oscillation in analog domain. Pollution degree 2 environment required.
