Parker: Intelligent Digital Servo Drive ViX Series (ViX250-XX)

Description

The freely-programmable, intelligent ViX servo drive delivers high levels of functionality and flexibility in programmable motion control. With an output in the 250-500 VA power range, ViX uses field-oriented digital control technology, to give enhanced dynamic performance with improved efficiency. Housed within an extremely compact case, ViX is suitable either for direct panel mounting or for attachment to a standard DIN rail.

The ViX drive is produced in two versions having continuous current ratings of 2.5 A and 5 A at motor bus voltages up to 80 V. A peak current capability of three times the continuous rating provides an outstanding acceleration performance. The device offers the choice of either resolver or encoder feedback (user selectable). To assist with initial commissioning, the drive can correct most motor and feedback wiring errors automatically

ViX250IE/ViX500IE Intelligent Digital Servo Drive

Available in two power ranges, these intelligent digital servos use field-oriented control technology to give enhanced dynamic performance with improved efficiency. Housed within an extremely compact case, the drives are suitable for either direct panel or DIN rail mounting.

Using full PWM control with sinusoidal commutation, the two versions of power stage can have continuous current ratings of 2.5A and 5A at motor bus voltages up to 80V. Having a choice of resolver or encoder feedback, the drives may be used with a wide range of 3-phase servo motors of different pole counts.

Product Variants

Digital servo drives are available as intelligent or CAN versions, with resolver or encoder feedback.

Installation Requirements:

Environment

ViX drives operate in a temperature range of 0° to 40°C with natural convection, or 50°C Max with forced-air cooling (see Hardware Reference), at normal levels of humidity (5-95% non-condensing). The drives can tolerate atmospheric pollution degree 2, which means only dry, non-conductive pollution is acceptable.

Drive Cooling

Cooling of all drive types is by natural convection up to 40°C. To assist cooling, drives should be installed vertically in an area where there is at least a 50mm (minimum) air gap above and below the package and a 10mm (minimum) gap either side. Avoid mounting heat-producing equipment directly below a drive. Installers must ensure that the air temperature entering the drive or rising up to the drive is within the ambient temperature restrictions. Under normal use the air temperature leaving the drive and heat sink may be 25°C above ambient. In the final installation, check that the ambient temperature specification of 40°C Max (without forced air cooling) is not exceeded directly below the top-most drives and that any circulating air flow is not being blocked from reaching the drives. For cabinet cooling calculations, allow 20W per drive.
