Kollmorgen BDS5A-103-0101

  • Product Name:​ BDS5A-103-0101 PWM Digital Servo Drive (Brushless DC / AC Servo Amplifier)
  • Product Introduction:​ Kollmorgen BDS5 family digital servo amplifier — full-digital DSP-based drive for 1- or 3-phase brushless servo motors (Goldline B/M/BH/MH etc.). Provides torque, velocity, and position control modes; accepts ±10 V analog command, step/direction, or master-follower.

Detailed content

  • Key Specifications (BDS5A-103 typical):
    • Continuous Output Current:​ 10 A (rms) — “103” = 10 A cont., 20–30 A peak
    • Input Power:​ 115/230 VAC single- or 3-phase (verify label)
    • Bus Voltage Range:​ ~160–325 VDC internally regulated
    • Control Modes:​ Torque (current), Velocity (with tach feedback or estimator), Position (with encoder/resolver)
    • Feedback Supported:​ Resolver, Incremental Encoder, optional SinCos
    • I/O:​ ±10 V analog command, Enable, Fault, Ready contacts, ±15 V reference
    • Commutation:​ Software-selectable — auto-commutate with resolver or encoder index
    • Protections:​ Over-current, over-voltage, under-voltage, over-temperature, following error
    • Mounting:​ Panel mount with heat sink; forced air cooling recommended above 10 A
  • Features:​ Auto-tuning capability, programmable gain sets, electronic gearing, dual-command source selectable.
  • Installation & Notes:
    • Requires proper motor-to-drive parameter matching (motor Kt, Ke, pole count, resolver transformation ratio).
    • Regenerative resistor may be needed for frequent deceleration of large inertial loads.
    • Observe grounding and shielding practices — BDS5 is sensitive to noise on feedback lines.
