Chapter 5 Connect the Kinetix 5500 Drive System
Basic Wiring Requirements This section contains basic wiring information for the Kinetix 5500 drives.
Routing the Power and Signal Cables
When you route power and signal wiring on a machine or system, radiated
noise from nearby relays, transformers, and other electronic devices can be
induced into I/O communication, or other sensitive low voltage signals. This
can cause system faults and communication anomalies.
The Kinetix 2090 single motor cable contains the power, brake, and feedback
wires, but is properly shielded to protect the noise-sensitive feedback signals.
See Electrical Noise Reduction on page 38
for examples of routing high and
low voltage cables in wireways. Refer to the System Design for Control of
Electrical Noise Reference Manual, publication GMC-RM001
, for more
information.
ATTENTION: Plan the installation of your system so that you can perform all
cutting, drilling, tapping, and welding with the system removed from the
enclosure. Because the system is of the open type construction, be careful
to keep metal debris from falling into it. Metal debris or other foreign matter
can become lodged in the circuitry and result in damage to components.
SHOCK HAZARD: To avoid a hazard of electrical shock, perform all mounting
and wiring of the Bulletin 2198 drive modules before applying power. Once
power is applied, connector terminals can have voltage present even when
not in use.
IMPORTANT This section contains common PWM servo system wiring configurations,
size, and practices that can be used in most applications. National
Electrical Code, local electrical codes, special operating temperatures,
duty cycles, or system configurations take precedence over the values
and methods provided.
