Only specialist personnel with extensive knowledge in the areas of electrical
engineering / drive technology are allowed to commission the drive unit of
servo amplifier and motor.
Deadly voltages can occur, up to 900V. Risk of electric shock! Check that all
live connection points (terminal boxes) are safe against accidental contact.
Never undo the electrical connections to the motor when it is live. Risk of
electric shock! The residual charge in the capacitors of the servo amplifier
can produce dangerous voltages up to 10 minutes after the mains supply has
been switched off.
Measure the DC-link voltage and wait until it has fallen below 40V. Even when
the motor is not rotating, control and power leads may be live.
The surface temperature of the motor can exceed 100°C in operation.
Risk of burns! Check (measure) the temperature of the motor. Wait until the
motor has cooled down below 40°C before touching it.
Make sure that, even if the drive starts to move unintentionally, no danger
can result for personnel or machinery.
Check the assembly and orientation of the motor.
Check the drive components (clutch, gear unit, belt pulley) for the correct seating
and setting (observe the permissible radial and axial forces).
Check the wiring and connections to the motor and the servo amplifier. Check that
the earthing is correct.
Test the function of the holding brake, if used. (apply 24V, the brake must be relea-
sed).
Check whether the rotor of the motor revolves freely (release the brake, if necessa-
ry). Listen out for grinding noises.
Check that all the required measures against accidental contact with live and mo-
ving parts have been carried out.
Carry out any further tests which are specifically required for your system.
Now commission the drive according to the setup instructions for the servo ampli-
fier.
In multi-axis systems, individually commission each drive unit (servo amplifier and
motor).
