[X6A], motor phase connection
The connection [X6A] is located on the front of the device. The following connec-
tions to the motor are established via the connection [X6A]:
–
Motor phases U, V, W
–
PE connection
Incorrect circuitry of PE and motor phases results in a device defect, jerking or
uncontrolled start-up of the motor when the power supply is switched on.

Wires and shielding
–

–
Extra optional wires, e.g. for the holding
brake (shielded separately) and the motor
temperature sensor (shielded separately)
Design
Only use cables that ensure reinforced isolation
between the motor phases and the shielded sig-
nals of the holding brake and motor temperature
sensor in accordance with IEC 61800-5-1.

The only motor cables permitted are those that fulfil the requirements of EN 61800-5-2, Annex D.3.1
and the requirements of EN 60204-1.
1) Shield clamp and mating connector also permit larger cross sections.
2) for 0.75 mm² check that the shield diameter is sufficient for proper clamping
3) 2.5 mm² is recommended for cable lengths over 50 m to limit the voltage loss of the available output
voltage.

Festo offers prefabricated motor cables as accessories
–
Only use motor cables that have been approved for operation with the Festo
servo drive. Motor cables of other manufacturers are permitted if they meet the
specified requirements.
7.9.2
[X6B], motor auxiliary connection
The connection [X6B] is located on the front of the device. The holding brake
of the motor and the motor temperature sensor can be connected to the connec-
tion [X6B]. The output for the holding brake is used both functionally and in
connection with the safety sub-function Safe brake control
è
Manual Safety
sub-function.
To allow motor temperature monitoring, the following are supported:
–
N/C and N/O contacts
–
KTY 81 … 84 (silicon temperature sensors)
–
PTC (PTC resistor, positive temperature coefficient)
–
NTC (NTC resistor, negative temperature coefficient)
–
Pt1000 (platinum measuring resistor)
The servo drive monitors whether the motor temperature violates an upper or
lower limit. With switching sensors, only the upper limit value can be monitored
(e.g. with a normally closed contact). The limit values and the error response can
be parameterised.

–
Connect the cable shield on both sides.
–
Make unshielded cable ends as short as possible (recommended 150 mm,
max. 200 mm).

Electronic overload and over temperature protection for the motor
The CMMT-AS allows the motor to be electronically protected against overload
and provides over temperature protection with the following protective functions:

tion and commissioning
Temperature moni-

The motor temperature is
monitored for an upper and
lower limit value, including
hysteresis. The limit values
can be parameterised.
–
Connect the temperature sensor to con-
nection [X6B] (both switching and ana-
logue temperature sensors are supported)
–
Parameterise the temperature limit values
in accordance with the type of motor
used, e.g. using the device-specific plug-
in. Comply with the permissible limit
values of the motor.

The specified parameters are preset for Festo motors. The parameters can be
adapted in the plug-in.
7.9.4
Shield support of the motor cable
Requirements for the motor cable shield support on the device side
The type of shield support depends on the design of the motor cable. If,
for example, a hybrid cable is used to connect the motor, holding brake and
temperature sensor, the following options are available for connecting the shield
on the device side:
Option 1: all motor cable shields are jointly connected over a wide surface area
using a shield sleeve at the cable end and are connected below the shield clamp
on the front of the CMMT-AS.
