Elmomc Gold Tuba Digital Servo Drive Installation Guide EtherCAT and CAN

This installation Guide details the technical data, pinouts, and power connectivity of the Gold Tuba.

For a comprehensive detailed description of the functions refer to the MAN-G-Panel Mounted

Drives Hardware manual which describes Panel Mounted products.

In order to achieve the optimum, safe operation of the Gold Tuba, it is imperative that you

implement the safety procedures included in this installation guide. This information is provided to

protect you and to keep your work area safe when operating the Gold Tuba and accompanying

equipment.

Please read this chapter carefully before you begin the installation process.

Before you start, ensure that all system components are connected to earth ground. Electrical

safety is provided through a low-resistance earth connection.

Only qualified personnel may install, adjust, maintain and repair the servo drive. A qualified person

has the knowledge and authorization to perform tasks such as transporting, assembling, installing,

commissioning and operating motors.

The Gold Tuba contains electrostatic-sensitive components that can be damaged if handled

incorrectly. To prevent any electrostatic damage, avoid contact with highly insulating materials,

such as plastic film and synthetic fabrics. Place the product on a conductive surface and ground

yourself in order to discharge any possible static electricity build-up.

To avoid any potential hazards that may cause severe personal injury or damage to the product

during operation, keep all covers and cabinet doors shut.

Product Description

The Gold Tuba series of digital servo drives are highly resilient and designed to deliver the highest

density of power and intelligence. The Gold Tuba delivers up to 25 kW of continuous power in a

compact package.

Before you start, ensure that all system components are connected to earth ground. Electrical

safety is provided through a low-resistance earth connection.

Only qualified personnel may install, adjust, maintain and repair the servo drive. A qualified person

has the knowledge and authorization to perform tasks such as transporting, assembling, installing,

commissioning and operating motor servo drives.

The Gold Tuba servo drive contains electrostatic-sensitive components that can be damaged if

handled incorrectly. To prevent any electrostatic damage, avoid contact with highly insulating

materials, such as plastic film and synthetic fabrics. Place the product on a conductive surface and

ground yourself in order to discharge any possible static electricity build-up.

To avoid any potential hazards that may cause severe personal injury or damage to the product

during operation, keep all covers and cabinet doors shut.

The Gold Tuba series are part of Elmo’s advanced Gold Line. They operate from an AC power source

in current, velocity, position and advanced position modes, in conjunction with a permanentmagnet

synchronous brushless motor, DC brush motor, linear motor or voice coil. They are

designed for use with any type of sinusoidal and trapezoidal commutation, with vector control. The

Gold Tuba can operate as a stand-alone device or as part of a multi-axis system in a distributed

configuration on a real-time network.

Power to the drives is provided by an AC power source, either directly from the mains or via a

transformer.

An auxiliary 24 VDC power supply is required as the Gold Tuba does not operate without one. This

feature also serves as a backup functionality.
