Servo Drive and System Considerations Chapter 1
Cable Lengths
Verify that the feedback cable length in your current Kinetix 2000 servo drive
system does not exceed the maximum cable lengths for the Kinetix 5500 servo
drives. The follow are maximum cable lengths for the Kinetix 5500 servo drives:
•
Combined motor power cable length for all axes on the same DC bus must
not exceed 250 m (820 ft). Drive-to-motor cables must not exceed 50 m
(164 ft), however use of continuous-flex cable limits the maximum length.
See the Kinetix 5500 Servo Drives User Manual, publication
2198-UM001 , Table 5 for specifications by frame size.
•
Ethernet cable lengths connecting drive-to-drive, drive-to-controller, or
drive-to-switch must not exceed 100 m (328 ft). Complete a careful
evaluation of your Ethernet media when using a CIP motion solution. For
more information, see Guidance for Selecting Cables for EtherNet/IP
Networks, publication
ENET-WP007 .
•
Registration and digital input cables greater than 30 m (98.4 ft) must be
shielded.
See Drive Interconnects and Cabling on page 32 for more information.
Physical Dimensions
The physical size of the drive families are different (see Dimension Comparison
on page 19 ). In most cases, the Kinetix 5500 servo drives are smaller and will fit
into the existing space of the compatible Kinetix 2000 drives; however, you
should verify the physical size of the Kinetix 5500 servo drive.
Control Power
The Kinetix 2000 servo drive integrated axis module (IAM) requires AC input
power (230V AC nominal, single phase) for logic circuitry.
The Kinetix 5500 servo drive requires 24V DC input power for control circuitry.
You need to review your control power scheme including 24V power supply
requirements. See
Appendix C for more information on control power
specifications.
Circuit Protection Sizing for protective devices, such as fuses and circuit breakers, may be different
between Kinetix 2000 servo drives and Kinetix 5500 servo drives. Verify that you
have chosen the correct sizes when selecting and installing a Kinetix 5500 servo
drive. For more information, see
Appendix C .
