-
-
Read this documentation before carrying out installation and setup. Incorrect hand
l
ling of the servo amplifier can lead to personal injury or material damage. It is vital
that you keep to the technical data and information on connection requirements (on
the nameplate and in the documentation).
The servo amplifiers contain electrostatically sensitive components which may be
l
damaged by incorrect handling. Ground yourself before touching the servo amplifier
by touching any unpainted metal surface. Avoid contact with highly insulating mater
ials (artificial fabrics, plastic film etc.). Place the servo amplifier on a conductive sur
face.
The manufacturer of the machine must generate a hazard analysis for the machine,
l
and take appropriate measures to ensure that unforeseen movements cannot cause
injury or damage to any person or property.
Do not open the units. Keep all covers and switchgear cabinet doors closed during
l
operation. Otherwise there are deadly hazards, with the possibility of severe danger
to health or material damage.
l
During operation, servo amplifiers, according to their degree of enclosure protection,
may have uncovered live components. Control and power connections may be live,
even if the motor is not rotating.
l
Servo amplifiers may have hot surfaces during operation.
l
Never undo the electrical connections to the servo amplifier while it is live. There is a
danger of electric arcing with damage to contacts and danger to persons.
-
-
-
l
Wait at least five minutes after disconnecting the servo amplifier from the mains
supply voltage before touching live sections of the equipment (e.g. contacts) or
undoing connections. Capacitors can still have dangerous voltages present up to five
minutes after switching off the supply voltages. To be sure, measure the voltage in
the DC bus link circuit and wait until it has fallen below 40V.

AX2040/2070 Installation Manual9
Technical Description
2.2Use as directed
The servo amplifiers are components which are built into electrical equipment or machines, and can
only be used as integral components of such equipment. The manufacturer of the machine must
generate a hazard analysis for the machine, and take appropriate measures to ensure that unfore
seen movements cannot cause injury or damage to any person or property.

The AX2040/2070 family of servo amplifiers can be connected directly to symmetrically eart
hed(grounded) three-phase industrial mains supply networks [TN-system, TT-system with eart
hed(grounded) neutral point, not more than 5000rms symmetrical amperes, 480VAC maximum]
when protected by fuses type Fusetron FRS-R-50 for AX2040 or FRS-R-80 class RK5 for AX2070,
manufactured by Bussman, or equivalent, 480VAC min.
The servo amplifiers must not be operated directly on power supply networks >230V without an
earth (ground) or with an asymmetrical earth (ground).
Connection to other mains supply networks ð p. 16.
-
-
The use of external mains chokes and mains filters is required.
Periodic overvoltages between outer conductor (L1, L2, L3) and housing of the servo amplifier may
not exceed 1000V (peak value).
Transient overvoltages (< 50µs) between the outer conductors may not exceed 1000V.
Transient overvoltages (< 50µs) between outer conductors and housing may not exceed 2000V.
The regen resistors have to be protected by fuses type Limitron KLM, rated for 500VAC/DC
The AX2040/2070 family of servo amplifiers is only intended to drive specific brushless synchro
nous servomotors with closed-loop control of torque, speed and/or position. The rated voltage of the
motors must be at least as high as the DC bus link voltage of the servo amplifier. The motor must
have integral thermal protection.
The servo amplifiers may only be operated in a closed switchgear cabinet, taking into account the
ambient conditions defined on page 19 and the dimensions shown on page 33. Ventilation or cooling may be necessary to prevent enclosure ambient from exceeding 45°C (113°F).
Use copper wire only. Wire size may be determined from EN 60204 (or table 310-16 of the NEC
60°C or 75°C column for AWG size).
-
We only guarantee the conformance of the servo amplifiers with the standards for industrial areas
(page 11), if the components are delivered by Beckhoff.
Restart lock -AS-
The restart lock -AS- is exclusively intended to provide safety for personnel, by preventing the res
tart of a system. To achieve this personnel safety, the wiring of the safety circuits must meet the
safety requirements of EN60204, EN292 and EN 954-1..
The -AS- restart lock must only be activated,
—when the motor is no longer rotating (setpoint = 0V, speed = 0rpm, enable = 0V).
Drives with a suspended load must have an additional safe mechanical blocking
(e.g. by a motor-holding brake).
—when the monitoring contacts (KSO1/2 and BTB/RTO) for all servo amplifiers are wired into
the control signal loop (to recognize a cable break).
The -AS- restart lock may only be controlled by a CNC if the control of the internal safety relay is
arranged for redundant monitoring.
The -AS- restart lock must not be used if the drive is to be made inactive for the following reasons :
1.-cleaning, maintenance and repair operations
-long inoperative periods
In such cases, the entire system should be disconnected from the supply by the personnel,
and secured (main switch).
2.-emergency-stop situations
In an emergency-stop situation, the main contactor is switched off (by the emergency-stop
button or the BTB-contact in the safety circuit).

2.12Control for motor holding brake
A 24V / max. 2A holding brake in the motor can be controlled directly by the servo amplifier.
Check voltage drop, measure the voltage at brake input and check brake function
(brake and no brake).
This function does not ensure personnel safety!
The brake function must be enabled through the BRAKE parameter (setting: WITH BRAKE). In the
diagram below you can see the time and functional relationships between the ENABLE signal,
speed setpoint, speed and braking force.
During the internal ENABLE delay time of 100ms the speed setpoint of the servo amplifier is
internally driven down a 10ms ramp to 0V. The brake output is switched on when 3% of the final
speed is reached.
The rise (tbrH) and fall (tbrL) times of the holding brake which is built into the motors are different
for the various types of motor (see motor manual). A description of the interface can be found on
page 45.
A safe (for personnel) operation of the holding brake requires an additional “make” (n.o.) contact in
the brake circuit and a suppressor device (varistor) for the brake.

2.13Regen circuit
During braking with the aid of the motor, energy is fed back to the servo amplifier. This energy is
converted into heat in the regen resistor (ð p. 90). The regen resistor is switched into circuit by the
regen circuit. The regen circuit (thresholds) are adjusted to the supply voltage with the help of the
setup software.
Our customer service can help you with the calculation of the regen power which is required. A des
cription of the interface can be found on page 45.
Functional description:
1.- Individual amplifiers, not coupled through the DC bus link (DC+, DC-)
The circuit starts to respond at a DC bus link voltage of 400V, 720V or 840V (depending on the
supply voltage). If the energy which is fed back from the motor, as an average over time or
as a peak value, is higher than the preset regen power, then the servo amplifier will output
the status “regen power exceeded” and the regen circuit will be switched off. At the next
internal check of the DC bus link voltage (after a few ms) an overvoltage will be detected and
the servo amplifier will be switched off with the error message “Overvoltage F02” (ð p. 70).
The BTB/RTO contact (terminal X3/2,3) will be opened at the same time (ð p. 55).
2.- Several servo amplifiers coupled through the DC bus link circuit (DC+, DC-)
Thanks to the built-in regen circuit with its patented power distribution, several amplifiers
(even with different current ratings) can be operated off a common DC bus link. This is achieved
by an automatic adjustment of the regen thresholds (which vary, because of tolerances).
The regen energy is distributed equally among all the amplifiers. The combined power of
all the amplifiers is always available, as continuous or peak power. The switch-off takes
place as described under 1. (above) for the servo amplifier with the lowest switch-off
threshold (resulting from tolerances).
The RTO (BTB) contact of this amplifier (terminals X3/2,3) will be opened at the same time
(ð p. 55).

2.14Switch-on and switch-off behavior
The diagram below illustrates the correct functional sequence for switching the servo amplifier on
and off.
DC bus link
2.14.1Stop function to EN 60204
If a fault occurs (ð p. 70) the output stage of the servo amplifier is switched off and the BTB/RTO
contact is opened. In addition, a global error signal can be given out at one of the digital outputs
(terminals X3/16 and X3/17) (see online help for the setup software). These signals can be used by
the higher-level control to finish the current PLC cycle or to shut down the drive (with additional
brake or similar.).
The built-in restart lock -AS- can be used to switch off the drive via a positive-action (approved by
Trade Liability Association) safety relay, so that personnel safety is ensured at the drive shaft
(ð p. 25).
Instruments which are equipped with a selected “Brake” function use a special sequence for swit
ching off the output stage (ð p. 21).
The Stop functions are defined in EN 60204 (VDE 0113), Para. 9.2.2, 9.2.5.3.
There are three categories of Stop functions:
Category 0:Shut down by immediately switching off the supply of energy to the
drive machinery (i.e an uncontrolled shut-down);
Category 1:A controlled shut-down, during which the supply of energy to the drive
machinery is maintained to perform the shut-down, and where the energy
supply is only interrupted when the shut-down has been completed;
Category 2:A controlled shut-down, where the supply of energy to the drive machinery
is maintained.
Every machine must be equipped with a Stop function to Category 0. Stop functions to Categories 1
and/or 2 must be provided if the safety or functional requirements of the machine make this neces
sary.

2.14.2Emergency Stop strategies
The Emergency Stop function is defined in EN 60204 (VDE 0113), Para. 9.2.5.4.
Implementation of the Emergency Stop function :
You can find wiring recommendations in our application note
“Stop and Emergency Stop functions”
Category 0:
The controller is switched to “disable”, the electrical supply (208...480VAC) is disconnected.
The drive must be held by an electromagnetic holding device (brake).
In multiaxis systems with connected DC bus link bus (intermediate circuit) the motor cable
has to be disconnected by a changeover switch (contactor, e.g. Siemens 3RT1516-1BB40)
and short-circuited by resistors connected in a star configuration.
Category 1:
If hazardous conditions can result from an emergency stop switch-off with an unbraked
run-down, then the drive can be switched off by a controlled shut-down.
Stop Category 1 permits electromotive braking with a switch-off when zero speed has
been reached. Safe shut-down can be achieved, when the loss of the mains supply is not
rated as a fault and the control takes over the disabling of the servoamplifier.
In the normal situation, only the supply power is switched off in a safe manner.
The 24V auxiliary supply remains switched on.

2.15Restart lock -AS-
2.15.1Advantages of the restart lock
A frequently required application task is the protection of personnel against the restarting of drives.
This can not be achieved by an electronic inhibit, but must be implemented with mechanical ele
ments (positively driven relay contacts).
To get round this problem, up to now either the main contactor in the mains supply line was swit
ched off, or another contactor was used to disconnect the motor from the servo amplifier.
The disadvantages of this method are :
—the DC bus link has to be charged up again at restart
—wear on the contacts of the contactors, caused by switching under load
—extensive wiring required, with additional switching components
The restart lock -AS- avoids these disadvantages. A safety relay in the servo amplifier is activated
either by the PLC or manually. Positively driven contacts provide a safe disconnection of the ampli
fier, the setpoint input of the servo amplifier is inhibited, and a signal is sent to the safety circuit.
The suggested circuits (ð p. 28) fulfills safety category 1 (EN 954-1). You can fulfill safety
category 3, if you use a mains contactor with suited supervision.
Advantages of the restart lock -AS- :
—the DC bus link remains charged up, since the mains supply line remains active
—only low voltages are switched, so there is no contact wear
—very little wiring is required
—the functionality and the personnel safety when using the circuit recommendations in
this documentation have been approved by the Trade Liability Association.

2.15.2Functional description
The connector (X10) is mounted on the front panel of the AX2040/2070.The coil connections and a
make (n.o.) contact of a safety relay are made available through 4 terminals on this connector.
The 24VDC safety relay in the servo amplifier (approved) is controlled externally. All the relay contacts have positive action.
Two contacts switch off the driver supply of the output stage in the servo amplifier, and short the
internal setpoint signal to AGND (0 V).
The make (n.o.) contact used for monitoring is looped into the control circuit.
If the safety relay is not energized, then the monitoring contact is open and the servo amplifier is
ready for operation.
If the drive is electronically braked, the servo amplifier is disabled and the motor-holding brake is
on, then the safety relay is energized (manually or by the controls).
The supply voltage for the driver circuit of the output stage is switched off in a safe manner, the
internal setpoint is shorted to 0V, and the monitoring contact bridges the safety logic in the control
circuit of the system (monitoring of protective doors etc.)
Even if the output stage or driver is destroyed, it is impossible to start the motor.
If the safety relay itself is faulty, then the monitoring contact cannot bridge the safety logic of the
system. Opening the protective devices will then switch off the system.

2.15.5Installation / Setup
2.15.5.1Safety instructions
Observe the prescribed use of the restart lock -AS- (ð p. 10)
l
The monitoring contacts (KSO1/2) for each amplifier must be looped into the control
l
circuit. This is vital, so that a malfunction of the internal safety relay or a cable break
can be recognized.
If the restart lock -AS- is automatically activated by a control system (KSI1/2), then
l
make sure that the output of the control is monitored for possible malfunction. This
can be used to prevent a faulty output from activating the restart lock -AS- while the
motor is running.
Keep to the following functional sequence when the restart lock -AS- is used :
l
1.Brake the drive in a controlled manner (speed setpoint = 0V)
3.If there is a suspended load, block the drive mechanically
4.Activate the restart lock -AS-
2.15.5.2Functional test
02/06Technical Description
The functioning of the restart lock must be tested during setup, after every alteration in the wiring of
the system, or after exchanging one or more components of the system.
1.Stop all drives, with setpoint 0V, disable drives,
mechanically block any suspended loads
2.Activate the restart lock -AS-.
3.Open protective screens (but do not enter hazardous area)
4.Pull off the X10 connector from an amplifier: the mains contactor must drop out
5.Reconnect X10. Switch on mains contactor again.
6.Repeat steps 4 and 5 for each individual servo amplifier.

2.15.6Application examples
2.15.6.1Moving single axis-groups in setting-up operation
In setting-up operation, people will frequently be within the danger zone of the machinery. Axes will
normally be moved under the control of permission switches. An additional switch-off of the unused
axes, by means of the restart lock, increases the safety margin and avoids the repeated switching
of main contactors or motor contactors.
2.15.6.2Switching off grouped axes with separate working areas
Even when several AX2040/2070 are operating off a common mains supply and DC bus link, it is
possible to set up groups for separate working areas. These groups can then be switched off sepa
rately for personnel safety. For this purpose, we have provided you with a suggested circuit (mains
supply circuit and control circuit for 2 separate working groups which have interconnected DC bus
links and a common mains supply voltage).
2.15.6.2.1Control circuit
The suggested circuit fulfills safety category 1 (EN 954-1). You can fulfill safety category 3, if you
use a mains contactor with suited supervision.
