Product Description
2.1
Use and Application
The VAA-4E4A-G20-ZEJ/M2L-P7-GEB motor control module is an AS-Interface connection
module for controlling 1 or 2 DC roller motors. The module is optimized for ITOH Denki
PM...XE/XP motors, but can also be used for compatible DC motors.
To record statuses in the field environment, the module also has 4 inputs for 3-wire sensors
with positive-switching outputs (PNP) or for mechanical contacts. The input characteristic of
the inputs corresponds to type 1 in accordance with EN 61131-2.
The motors are supplied with power via an external auxiliary voltage. Sensors are supplied
from the AS-Interface. The auxiliary voltage is supplied to the motor control module via a 2nd
flat cable in addition to the AS-Interface flat cable.
■
The permissible auxiliary power is 18 V...30 V.
■
The sensor power supply may be loaded, in total, with 100 mA.
■
For each motor, a maximum current load of 5 A is permitted briefly (<2 s).
