Working Principle
Single/three-phase 230VAC grid AC input rectified to DC bus voltage; analog front-end circuit samples motor resolver feedback signals and external ±10V/pulse motion commands, feeds processed signals to digital DSP core control unit. DSP executes closed-loop vector control algorithm, outputs analog PWM drive signals to IGBT power inverter stage, generating variable-frequency three-phase sinusoidal power to drive DBL/6SM series legacy synchronous servo motors. Built-in braking resistor circuit absorbs regenerative deceleration energy to clamp DC bus voltage within 460VDC maximum rating.
Advantage Highlights
- Dedicated resolver feedback hardware eliminates external signal conditioning circuit requirements
- Dual analog/pulse command interface compatible with legacy PLC and motion controller hardware platforms
- Robust analog front-end design maintains stable operation in heavy industrial high-EMI environments
- Standardized mechanical dimensions for drop-in replacement of original ServoStar CD series amplifiers
- Wide range compatibility with all Kollmorgen legacy low-voltage synchronous servo motor models
Applicable Industries
Legacy printing converting equipment, vintage CNC metalworking machinery, textile industrial looms, retrofitted packaging automation production lines, web handling film processing machines
Installation Requirements
- Mount on standard 19-inch equipment rack or 35 mm DIN rail inside IP54+ sealed electrical cabinet
- Maintain minimum 120 mm vertical clearance above drive unit for forced cooling fan airflow exhaust
- Separate low-voltage signal wiring and high-current servo power cables by minimum 200 mm distance
- Connect dedicated 6mm² copper PE protective earth wire to chassis ground terminal

Operation Precautions
- Do not operate with AC input supply voltage exceeding 230VAC nominal rating
- Regularly inspect internal cooling fan for dust accumulation every 1000 operating hours
- Ambient cabinet temperature exceeding 40°C requires 15% continuous power derating
- Disconnect main AC power supply before disassembling resolver feedback signal wiring
- Allow minimum 12-minute DC bus discharge period post power-off before accessing internal drive power circuitry
