BasicInstallation 3-1MN1942
3.1 IntroductionYoushould read all the sections in Basic Installation to ensure safe installation.
This section describes the mechanical and electrical ins tallation of the MicroFlex e100 in the
followings tages:
HLocationc onsiderations
HMountingthe Micr oFlex e100
HConnecting the AC power supply
HConnecting the 24VDC control circuit supply
HConnecting the motor
HInstallinga r egeneration resistor (Dynamic Brake)
HConnecting the feedback device
Thesestages should be read and followed in sequence.
3.1.1 Powersources
A115 - 230VAC power sourc e (IEC1010 over-voltage c ategory III or less) in the installationarea
isrequir ed. This may be single-phase or three-phase. An AC power filter is required to comply
withthe C E directive for which the MicroFlex e100 was tes ted (see section 3.4.7).
The24V DC control circuit supply must be a regulated power s upply with a continuous current
supply capability of 1A (4A power on surge).
3.1.2 Hardware requ irements
Thecomponents you will need to complete the basic installation are:
H24VDCpow er supply.
HACpower s upply filter (for CE compliance).
HThemotor that w ill be connected to the MicroFlex e100.
HAmotor power c able.
HAnencoder feedback c able, SSI cable, or EnDat / SinCos cable. A separate Hall cable might
alsobe requir ed for linear motors.
HAUSB c able.
H(Optional) A regeneration res istor (Dynamic Brake) might be required, depending on the
application. Without the regeneration resis tor, the drive may produce an ov ervoltage fault. All
MicroFlex e100 models have overvoltage sensing c ircuitry. Regeneration resistors may be
purchased separately - see Appendix A.
