Intended use
The FAULHABER Motion Controllers described here are designed for the activation and con-
trol of DC-micromotors (MCDC), linear DC servomotors (MCLM) and brushless DC motors
(MCBL). They feature numerous functions and operating modes which facilitate flexible
adaptation to the respective drive task.
Thanks to their compact design, the units can be used in a wide variety of applications and
require only basic wiring. The flexible connection possibilities open a wide range of applica-
tions in all areas, such as in decentral systems in automation technology and in pick-and-
place machines and machine tools.
The following points must be observed to ensure that the motors are used as intended:
The Motion Controller contains electronic components and should be handled in
accordance with the ESD regulations.
Do
not
use the Motion Controller in environments where it will come into contact with
water, chemicals and/or dust,
nor
in explosion hazard areas.
The Motion Controller should be operated only within the limits specified in the data
sheet.
Please ask the manufacturer for information about use under individual special envi-
ronmental conditions.
