Detailed content

  • Technical Specifications:
    • Input: 115/230 VAC
    • Output Current: ~5 – 6 A continuous
    • Voltage: Matches 24 – 240 V motor windings
    • Control: Analog ±10 V torque/speed, pulse/direction
    • Feedback: Resolver, encoder (depends on onboard card)
  • Functional Features:
    • Analog command interface​ (no fieldbus native).
    • Adjustable gains via trim pots or early digital interface.
    • Integrates motor brake control.
    • Overcurrent/overheat protection.
  • Application Scenarios: Retrofit of 1990s–2000s machinery, textile, packaging legacy lines.
  • Performance Parameters:
    • Bandwidth: Lower than S400/AKD (few hundred Hz).
    • Switching freq: ~8 – 16 kHz.
  • Material & Structural Features:
    • Larger footprint than modern drives.
    • Finned aluminum heatsink.
    • D-sub and terminal strip I/O.
  • Working Principle:
    • Analog/DSP hybrid control; generates six-step or sinusoidal commutation based on feedback; regulates current via PWM.
  • Installation Requirements:
    • Panel mount with rear cooling fins exposed.
    • Keep away from high RF sources.
  • Usage Precautions:
    • Obsolete — no factory support.
    • Potentiometers drift over time; periodic recalibration needed.
    • Ensure motor inductance > minimum spec to avoid ripple current issues.
