Kollmorgen 610-AS-FAN

Product Category: Servo Motor Accessory — Forced Air Cooling Fan

Product Overview:
The 610-AS-FAN is a dedicated forced-air cooling fan assembly designed for Kollmorgen servo motors (primarily S-series and AKM-series) to enhance thermal dissipation during high-duty-cycle or continuous-torque operations.

Detailed content

Technical Specifications:

  • Part Number: 610-AS-FAN
  • Compatible Motor Series: AKM / S7200 / S6000 series servo motors
  • Voltage Rating: 24 VDC (typical for Kollmorgen fan assemblies)
  • Airflow Rate: Approximately 2.5–3.5 CFM (varies by motor frame)
  • Static Pressure: Sufficient for forced convection through motor fins
  • Noise Level: < 45 dBA at 1 meter
  • Connector Type: Kollmorgen proprietary connector (mates with motor terminal block)
  • Cable Length: Factory-terminated, approximately 300 mm
  • Protection Rating: IP20 (internal use only)

Material Composition:

  • Fan Blade: Glass-fiber reinforced polyamide (PA66-GF30) — high strength, low weight
  • Motor (Fan Drive): Brushless DC micro-motor
  • Housing: PA66 plastic (UL94 V-0 flame rated)
  • Bearings: Sleeve bearing or ball bearing (sealed)
  • Cable: UL-rated silicone or PVC, 24 AWG

Structural Features:

  • Axial fan design mounted directly on motor rear shaft extension
  • Clips or screws into motor rear housing (OEM mounting)
  • Low-profile design — does not extend beyond motor envelope significantly
  • Unidirectional airflow (front-to-rear or rear-to-front depending on orientation)

Working Principle:
The 24 VDC brushless fan motor spins the fan blade, forcing ambient air across the motor’s external cooling fins. This forced convection significantly increases the heat transfer coefficient compared to natural convection alone, allowing the motor to sustain higher continuous torque without thermal derating.

Key Advantages:

  • Increases continuous torque rating by 20–40% depending on motor size
  • Reduces thermal shutdown risk in high-duty applications
  • Drop-in replacement — no modification to motor or drive required
  • Low power consumption — typically < 5W
  • Extended motor life — maintains winding temperature within Class H limits

Applicable Industries:

  • Same as S7200 motor applications where continuous high torque is required
  • High-speed pick-and-place machines
  • Continuous-feed conveyors
  • 24/7 production lines

Installation Requirements:

  • Install on motor rear end — align with shaft extension
  • Secure with provided clips or M3 screws (torque: 1.5 Nm)
  • Connect to motor terminal block using provided connector
  • Verify airflow direction matches motor fin orientation

Usage Notes:

  • Fan operates only when motor is powered (wired in parallel with motor power)
  • Do not block airflow inlet or outlet
  • Clean fan blades periodically in dusty environments
  • Replace if noise increases significantly (bearing wear indicator)
