• Check for signs of transit damage
• Check the product code on the rating label conforms to your requirement.
If the unit is not being installed immediately, store the unit in a well-ventilated place away from
high temperatures, humidity, dust, or metal particles.
Refer to Chapter 2: “An Overview of the Servo Drive” to check the rating label/product code.
Refer to Chapter 8: “Routine Maintenance and Repair” for information on returning damaged
goods.

This manual is intended for use by the installer, user and programmer of the 631 Servo Drive. It
assumes a reasonable level of understanding in these three disciplines.
Enter the “Model No” from the rating label into the table at the front of this manual. It is
important that you pass this manual on to any new user of this unit.
The unit is fully identified using a five block alphanumeric code which records how the Servo
Drive was calibrated, and its various settings when despatched from the factory.
The Product Code appears as the “Model No.”. Each block of the Product Code is identified as
below:
The unit must be installed in a vertical position to guarantee the best air circulation for the
cooling ribs of the heat sink. Vertical installation above other drive racks or above other heat
producing devices can lead to overheating.
You must install the unit inside a suitable cubicle. The inside of this cubicle must be free from
dust, corrosive fumes, gases, and all liquids including condensation.
If the unit is being installed in a place where condensation is likely, install a suitable
anticondensation heater. The heater must be SWITCHED OFF during normal operation.
Automatic switch off is recommended.

The digital servo drive is protected against damage caused by overheating.
There is a thermal sensor installed on the heat sink. When the temperature rises to >95°C, the
drive is automatically switched off. This setting cannot be changed. Use a cabinet of the correct
size for adequate air circulation, see below.

The servo drive gives off heat in normal operation and must therefore be mounted to allow the
free flow of air through the ventilation slots and heatsink. Maintain minimum clearances for
ventilation as shown below to ensure heat generated by other adjacent equipment is not
transmitted to the Servo Drive. Be aware that other equipment may have its own clearance
requirements. When mounting two or more 631s together, these clearances are additive.

It is better to place heat-producing devices low down inside an enclosure to support internal
convection, which will spread the heat. If placing devices up high is unavoidable, you should
consider increasing the (upper) dimensions of the cubicle, or installing fans.
Cables are considered to be electrically sensitive, clean or noisy. You should already have
planned your cable routes with respect to segregating these cables for EMC compliance.
If not, refer to Chapter 12: “Certification for the Servo Drive”.

Remove the terminal cover as shown above.
Insert a flat-bladed screwdriver (size 3.5 mm max.) inside the smallest
hole. Lever the screwdriver, keeping it firmly pressed into the hole. The
cage will open.
Insert the stripped wire (5mm to 6mm/0.22in.) or wire crimp inside the
cage keeping the screwdriver in position.

The temperature sensor in the motor windings of the approved Eurotherm servo motors are
classed as SELV, (i.e. protected by double insulation). Refer to Chapter 12: “Certification for the
Servo Drive” - Solid State Motor Overload Protection.
We do not recommend the use of circuit breakers (e.g. RCD, ELCB, GFCI), but where their use
is mandatory, they should:
• Operate correctly with dc and ac protective earth currents (i.e. type B RCDs as in
Amendment 2 of IEC755).
• Have adjustable trip amplitude and time characteristics to prevent nuisance tripping on
switch-on.
609##
,QVWDOOLQJ#WKH#6HUYR#'ULYH
When the ac supply is switched on, a pulse of current flows to earth to charge the
internal/external ac supply EMC filter’s internal capacitors which are connected between phase
and earth. This has been minimised in Eurotherm Drives’ filters, but may still trip out any circuit
breaker in the earth system. In addition, high frequency and dc components of earth leakage
currents will flow under normal operating conditions. Under certain fault conditions larger dc
protective earth currents may flow. The protective function of some circuit breakers cannot be
guaranteed under such operating conditions.
The wiring terminals accept a maximum conductor size of 12 AWG (3.2mm²).
The servo drive, when fitted with an internal ac supply EMC filter, is only suitable for earth
referenced supplies (TN).
Refer to Chapter 12: “Certification for the Servo Drive” for information on earthing
requirements.

Refer to Chapter 14: “Application Notes” - Dynamic Braking for selection details and Chapter
11: “Technical Specifications” - Power Details.
In order to conform with the specified generic EMC standards, the motor cable must be screened
and the screen connected to both the motor frame and the motor cable clamp. This clamp is
internally connected to power terminals PE (Protective Earth) and provides convenient 360°
connection. It is used for the motor protective earth, motor and control cable screen connections.
Refer to Chapter 12: “Certification for the Servo Drive” for information on meeting generic
EMC standards and minimising electrical interference.

The resolver provides a digital value for the rotor position to within one revolution, evaluation:
12 or 14 bit. It is adjustable in the Configuration Menu in the EASYRIDER software.
• commutation according to pole pair number
• actual speed value
• incremental position output
• position value for position regulation
The supplied resolver cable is plugged in to the front of the 631 (socket X30), and into the
socket on the Eurotherm approved servo motor. This connection must be made for the 631 to
control the operation of the motor. The cable contains wiring for the resolver and the motor
thermistor.
