Detailed content

Description:
The DBL4-0260-30-Y-560 is a brushless DC motor from Kollmorgen’s DBL product line. Model decode: DBL4 (DBL series, variant 4), 0260 (frame/power size), 30 (30 poles), Y (configuration), 560 (multi-turn absolute encoder).

Key Specifications:

  • Frame SizeDBL4 — 57 mm Diameter (approx.)
  • Power Rating: ~100 W Continuous
  • Pole Count30 Poles
  • Encoder560 — Multi-Turn Absolute, 12-Bit (4096 Counts/Rev)
  • Rated Voltage: 24 VDC
  • Rated Speed: 3,000 RPM (typical)
  • Rated Torque0.32 Nm
  • Peak Torque: 0.96 Nm
  • Efficiency>85% at rated operating point
  • Commutation: Sinusoidal, 3-Phase
  • IP RatingIP54
  • Weight~0.35 kg

Technical Features:

  • 30-Pole Design for ultra-smooth torque with minimal cogging
  • Integrated Hall Sensors for electronic commutation
  • Absolute Multi-Turn Encoder — position retained across power cycles, no homing required
  • PWM Input for speed control (0–100% duty cycle)
  • Built-in Drive Electronics in standard configuration

Structural Characteristics:

  • Stator: Laminated silicon steel
  • RotorNdFeB Magnets, 30-Pole Halbach Array
  • ShaftStainless Steel, 6 mm Diameter
  • HousingAluminum with Stainless Steel End Caps
  • Connectors: M8 or Flying Lead

Working Principle:
Three-phase BLDC motor with electronic commutation. The 30-pole configuration creates near-continuous torque with virtually zero cogging. Hall sensors provide commutation position; the absolute encoder provides position feedback to the controller.

Advantages:

  • Ultra-low cogging due to 30-pole design
  • Absolute position retained across power cycles — eliminates homing routine
  • Compact integrated package — motor + encoder + commutation in one unit
  • High efficiency reduces thermal load

Applicable Industries: Medical pumps, valve actuators, precision positioning stages, surveillance camera pan/tilt, laboratory equipment, small conveyor systems, analytical instruments

Installation Requirements:

  • Mount with 2× M4 mounting holes
  • Align shaft with load within 0.05 mm
  • Supply 24 VDC regulated (ripple <5%)
  • Maximum cable length to controller: 2 m (for integrated drive variants)

Usage Notes:

  • Do not apply axial load exceeding 50 N or radial load exceeding 20 N
  • Multi-turn encoder has 4096 counts/rev — use 32-bit position variable in controller
  • Operating temperature range: -10°C to +50°C
