SLM connector
Incorrect wiring of this cable could result in failure of the
M’Ax or SLM.
Wait 30 seconds after removing power to the drive before
inserting or removing control cables as ‘hot plugging’
cables can result in damage to the drive or SLM.
1.
8-way shielded cable having an overall diameter not greater than
6.6mm (

/
4
in)
2.
Maximum length: 50m (165ft)
3.
Route the cable by the shortest convenient path and so that it is no
closer than 300mm (1ft) from any power cable.
4.
Overall shield of tinned copper braid. Comb out the braid at both
ends, fold the strands back and trap them under the cable clamp to
ensure good electrical contact with the connector shell.
5.
The required twisted pairs connected to the DIN connector, the
unwanted twisted pairs should be cut at each end and insulated to
prevent inadvertent contact.
6.
Make the wire ends as short as possible (this affects performance).
7.
Amphenol C091 31D005 100 2 5-way screw-locking DIN connector
meeting IP67.
8.
Shielded RJ45 8-way plug

D-type connectors
For connection to the following connectors on the drive...
•
SIM ENC
•
MC/EIA485
•
DIGITAL I/O
•
STANDALONE
... use the following:
Cables
Many of the signals are EIA485 comms. and these must use twisted
pairs of the correct characteristic impedance cables having tinned-
copper stranded conductors, overall braided shield
Maximum overall diameter: depends on the D-type connector being
used
Connectors
SIM ENC
MC/EIA485
15-way high-density male D-type having a metal shell (improved
EMC type)
DIGITAL I/O
STANDALONE
15-way high-density female D-type having a metal shell (improved
EMC type)

Method of mounting
The two mounting brackets fitted to the drive are intended for mounting
the drive on the back-plate of the enclosure. Exhaust heat from the drive
is emitted in front of the back-plate. (Mounting instructions are given
later in this chapter.)
Alternatively the drive can be mounted through an aperture in the back-
plate to allow the exhaust heat to be emitted behind the back-plate. In
this case, the two mounting brackets fitted to the drive must be removed,
modified and re-fitted; the ground bracket supplied with the drive must
also be modified. For instructions, refer to the supplier of the drive.
2.11
Output current, Ambient temperature,
Heat dissipation, De-rating
The ambient temperature should be taken as the temperature of the
air immediately under the drive. This is especially important when
the drive is to be installed above heat-generating equipment.
