Kinetix 5500 Servo Drives
Mount the Kinetix 5500 Drive
Follow these steps to mount the drive in single-axis configurations.
1. Observe these clearance requirements when mounting a single drive to the panel:
• Additional clearance is required for cables and wires or the shared-bus connection system connected to the top of the drive.
• Additional clearance is required if other devices are installed above and/or below the drive and have clearance requirements of their
own.
• Additional clearance left and right of the drive is required when mounted adjacent to noise sensitive equipment or clean wire ways.
• The recommended minimum cabinet depth is 300 mm (11.81 in.).
Refer to the Kinetix Servo Drives Technical Data, publication
GMC-TD003
, for Kinetix 5500 drive dimensions.
In multi-axis shared-bus configurations, drives must be spaced by aligning the zero-stack tab and cutout. For mounting, sizing, and
configuring shared-bus configurations, refer to the Kinetix 5500 Servo Drives User Manual, publication
2198-UM001
.
2. Mount the Kinetix 5500 drive to the cabinet subpanel with M4 (#8-32) steel machine screws torqued to 2.0 N•m (17.7 lb•in), max.
IMPORTANT
Mount the drive in an upright position as shown. Do not mount the drive on its side.
Clearance right of the
drive is not required.
Clearance left of the
drive is not required.
