Controller DescriptionThe 1391B-ES Pulse Width Modulated Servo Controller is a dedicated,
single axis, AC servo controller. It has been packaged to require a
minimum amount of panel space while containing, as standard, a number
of features required by the machine tool and automated equipment
industries.
The 1391B-ES allows the user to achieve higher operating speeds with
purchased motors or from motors already in use. Depending on the motor,
the 1391B-ES can produce up to 30% more speed without loss of torque.
This can help achieve greater precision, a finer finished product and
increased production from existing machinery.

Chapter 1
Introduction
The 1391B-ES is generally used with a computer aided, closed loop
positioning system to control the position and linear or rotary motion of
various machine members on an automated machine.
All components are mounted in an open framed package with a slide-on
front cover. The controller is intended to be panel mounted in an enclosure
and ventilated with filtered and/or cooled air. An internal fan is included to
circulate air over the power heat sink.
The 1391B-ES converts a three-phase, 50/60 Hz input, to a variable AC
voltage with controlled phase, amplitude and frequency. The output which
is proportional to a user supplied analog command, regulates the speed
and/or current (torque) of a 1326 permanent magnet AC servomotor. The
controller is available in ratings of 15, 22.5 and 45A RMS with all package
sizes being identical. A 1391 Transformer, 1326 AC Servomotor and 1326
Cables complete the servo system.
Standard FeaturesThe 1391B-ES contains a number of standard features required in a typical
automated machine servo system.
• Input protected against transient voltage.
• A power line/DB contactor which opens the AC line to the controller
and inserts a shunt regulator resistor across the DC bus whenever the
contactor is de-energized.
• An integral circuit breaker which will open all three AC line leads in the
event of a short circuit condition in the power circuitry.
• A standard 300V DC power bus supply that includes an integral shunt
regulator.
• A shunt regulator resistor to dissipate the energy generated by the motor
during regenerative braking.
• Velocity loop components to compensate for a system inertia range
between 0.03 to 1.0 lb.-in.-s
• User selectable mechanical resonance filtering.
• Patented current control implementation.
• Acceleration or torque feedforward differential input.

.
• DIP switch configurable.
• Logic Boards that can be quickly removed and easily interchanged for
troubleshooting and diagnostics.
• Three controller ratings that are in the same physical package and have
identical mounting dimensions.
• True vector control.
• Up to 300 feet (91.4 meters) between controller and motor.

Chapter 1
Introduction
Options/ModificationsThe 1391B-ES contains most functions needed in a servo system.
The following are selectable at the user’s option:
- Contactor Auxiliary Switch
Two N.O. contacts are mounted on the main power contactor and wired
to the power terminal block. These contacts can be used in a motor
brake control circuit or as an indicator that the contactor has closed.
- Current or Torque Amplifier Operation
When the velocity loop is being closed as part of the position control
system, the controller can be configured to operate as a current or torque
amplifier by use of the S2 switch settings.
- External Shunt Regulator Resistor
On 15 and 22.5A controllers an internal power resistor that is part of the
DC bus voltage shunt regulator can dissipate 162 watts continuous
power. Some applications such as an overhauling load have excessive
regenerative energy to dissipate. For these applications, an external
shunt regulator resistor rated at 386 watts continuous can be supplied for
user mounting on 22.5A controllers. This is selectable by removing the
jumper on TB5 and using an external resistor. The shunt has integral
fusing accessible from the outside of 15 and 22.5A controllers. The 45A
controller has an externally mounted resistor and fuse.
Important: An external shunt regulator resistor is included as standard
equipment on 45A units. An additional unit is not required.
- Tach Output
A voltage equal to 2.0V DC/1000 RPM is available at TB2. 1.2V
DC/1000 RPM on units set for 6000 RPM operation.
- Torque or Current Monitor
A voltage equal to 3.0V DC=100% scaled current is available at TB2.
- Anti-Backlash
Provisions to use the 1388 Anti-Backlash module are provided.

Description of Operation
Chapter ObjectivesChapter 4 is intended to familiarize the reader with the circuitry of the
1391B-ES in terms of function and operation.
GeneralThe 1391B-ES PWM Servo Controller is made up of the following: 300V
DC power supply, power transistor output modules, shunt regulator circuit,
logic power supply, Logic Control Boards, isolated current sensing, circuit
breaker and line contactor.
The intended use of the 1391 ES is to control the speed and torque of an
AC servomotor in a closed loop position system. A complete servo system
can be configured with a 1391B-ES Servo Controller, 1326 AC
Servomotor and 1391 Isolation Transformer. Refer to the 1391B-ES Block
Diagram presented in Figure 4.3.
300V DC Power Bus SupplyThe controller contains an integral, unregulated, 300V DC nominal, full
load power supply. It consists of the power transformer input (230V AC,
three-phase, 50 or 60 Hz), a three-phase input bridge rectifier and one
power supply filter capacitor (C1).

Description of Operation
The three-phase relationship between the reference signal and the timing
wave provide a PWM wave to the power transistor base drive. This base
drive switches the power transistors across the 300V DC bus, providing
current to the motor windings, thus causing the motor to turn. A resolver
attached to the motor provides a signal corresponding to the actual rotor
position of the motor. This signal is decoded to a signal representing rotor
position and is fed to the commutation logic along with the torque
command. In this way, the controller combines the desired position signal
and current reference with the decoded resolver signal to produce a
reference signal commanding the controller to speed up or slow down. See
Figure 4.2.

Shunt Regulator OperationThe 1391B-ES shunt regulator provides power dissipation for regenerative
conditions when the energy returned to the controller by the motor exceeds
that which can be stored in the bus capacitors. The shunt regulator
monitors the bus voltage and at a predetermined “ON” point activates the
shunt regulator transistor, allowing current to flow through the shunt
resistor and dissipating power in the form of heat. A fuse is placed in series
with the resistor to protect it against short circuit conditions. When the
shunt transistor is activated and power is being dissipated at the resistor,
the bus voltage will quickly decrease, turning the transistor off when the
voltage reaches the “OFF” point. This cycle repeats, provided the bus
voltage continues to increase to the “ON” point. If too much regenerative
energy is present, the bus voltage will continue to increase even with the
shunt regulator on. At a predetermined bus voltage level, the 1391B-ES
will determine that an overvoltage condition exists, and trip out on an
Overvoltage Fault.
4-19
Chapter 4
Description of Operation
The shunt regulator behavior is further modified by an adjustable duty
cycle timer. The timer is used to model the shunt resistor temperature.
SW1, a selector switch located on the top of the controller (see Figure 1.1)
determines the temperature level and therefore the average power level at
which the controller will trip out. When this level is reached, the controller
will be forced to trip out on an Overvoltage Fault. This action would be
equivalent to turning the shunt regulator off. Refer to Chapter 9 for further
shunt regulator information.
Logic Power SupplyThe 1391B-ES control logic voltage is ±12V DC and +5V DC. The
voltages are generated on the Power Driver Board, which receives its 36V
AC center-tapped input from a tertiary winding on the isolation
transformer.
Logic Control BoardsThe Logic Control Boards are the printed circuit boards that are readily
accessible behind the front cover of the controller. They contain all circuits
necessary to control the 1391B-ES. These circuits include: the velocity and
current loop, fault detection and annunciation circuits, power-up/powerdown logic, PWM generation and forward/reverse controlling circuits.

Description of Operation
Fault Monitoring and DetectionA number of Fault Monitor and Detection functions exist on the 1391B-ES
that guard the controller and help to minimize motor and system faults. The
occurrence of a fault will cause the controller to trip out. In this condition,
the Drive OK (DROK) contact will open and remain open until the fault is
cleared. If the DROK contact is wired into the user’s stop circuit, the
line/DB contactor (M) will also de-energize. This will place the shunt
resistor across the bus causing the motor to dynamic brake to a stop.
These fault conditions are annunciated through the front panel LED
indicators. The conditions displayed include:
Overtemperature
The controller contains a thermal switch on the heat sink which indirectly
senses transistor module temperature. If the temperature rating of the
switch is exceeded, the LED illuminates, the DROK contact opens and the
controller is disabled.
Power Fault
A fault related to the power bridge section of the controller will cause the
controller to be disabled, illuminate the LED and open the DROK contact.
Control (Power) Fault
If the control voltage varies more than ±10% of the nominal 12V DC or the
resolver wiring is grounded or missing, this fault will occur. When a fault
is detected, the LED illuminates, the DROK contact opens and the
controller is disabled.
Overvoltage
The DC power bus voltage is continuously monitored. If it exceeds a preset
level of 405V DC, the LED illuminates, the DROK contact opens and the
controller is disabled
Undervoltage
If the DC power bus voltage drops below 50% of its nominal operating
value, the LED illuminates and a signal will be present at TB2-13. A
switch setting on S2 selects the reaction of the DROK contacts to an
undervoltage detection. Two options are possible: 1) DROK opens, but
closes when the bus voltage is restored; 2) DROK is not affected by an
undervoltage.
Important: Regardless of interaction with the DROK contacts, the
transistor bridge is disabled upon an undervoltage condition. This is done
to protect the output transistors against voltage transients.
Current Foldback
The controller contains a fixed time versus current overload circuit which
monitors the current through each leg of the output bridge. If a fixed-time
versus current-product is exceeded, the LED is illuminated and a signal
will be present at TB2-14. This condition will reduce the current limit or
torque available to the motor.
Run/ Enable
The application of an enable signal by the machine position controller will
cause the RUN ENABLE LED to illuminate.

Description of Operation
Drive Ready
The status of the power supplies and fault conditions are monitored
continuously. If a fault is present, the DRIVE READY LED will not be
illuminated, a fault signal will be present at TB4 and the DROK contact
will be open.
Isolated Current SensingThe Logic Control Boards receive current feedback from the Isolated
Current Sense Board. This circuitry provides the data used for current
limiting and to modify bandwidth.
Integral Circuit BreakerThe control logic and power circuitry are protected against overcurrents by
an integral circuit breaker. The DC bus supply and input rectifier utilizes a
three pole magnetic circuit breaker.
Line/DB ContactorThe three-phase incoming AC line is opened by the contactor whenever the
Enable signal is removed or a fault occurs. This operation in conjunction
with the shunt regulator reduces the bus voltage when the contactor is
disabled. The Logic Control Board remains energized except when voltage
is removed from the incoming isolation transformer.
Important: The 1391B-ES contains a definite purpose contactor that is not
to be energized/de-energized more than twice an hour on a continuous
basis. The life of the contactor may be reduced considerably if the cycle is
exceeded. Contact your local Allen-Bradley Sales Representative for
additional information.
Power Driver BoardThe Power Driver Board contains the circuitry needed to switch the power
transistor modules.
A Quad B BoardThe A Quad B Board changes the resolver signal from a 1326AB or AD
motor into an encoder signal for use by a position controller.
Starting and Stopping
ATTENTION: The Enable control circuitry in the 1391B-ES
!
includes solid-state components. If hazards due to accidental
contact with moving machinery or unintentional flow of liquid,
gas or solids exist, an additional hardwired stop circuit may be
required. Refer to the codes and standards applicable to your
particular system for specific requirements and additional
information. A device that removes AC input power when a
stop is initiated is an integral part of this controller. Refer to the
following individual stop mode explanations.

Description of Operation
ATTENTION: The user has the ultimate responsibility to
!
determine which stopping method is best suited to the application and will meet applicable standards for operator safety.
Starting and Stopping must be accomplished by hardwired user supplied
elements as shown in Appendix B. Stopping modes for the 1391B-ES are
outlined below. Refer to the paragraphs that follow for detailed
information. The effects described below assume that the 36V AC control
voltage has not been de-energized.

DROK Opens (Fault)Coast to Stop
Dynamic Braking
When the line/DB contactor (M) is de-energized by the control circuitry, an
inherent dynamic braking effect will occur during the DC bus decay,
provided the 36V AC logic voltage is not de-energized. The dynamic
braking effect depends on the value of the shunt regulator resistor and total
load inertia.
Important: Frequent cycling of the line/DB contactor to start/stop the
motor will reduce the life of the contactor. Refer to the paragraph that
follows.
Regenerative Braking
Normal run commands to the controller are performed through the Enable
input and any additional customer supplied control circuitry. Refer to
Appendix B. With input power applied, a mechanical contact closure
between TB2-9 & 10 or solid-state contact closure (open collector, +15 to
+30V DC) between TB2-10 & 12 will cause the controller to run, provided
the line/DB contactor (M) has been energized by the control circuitry.
When the Enable input is de-energized, the maximum available reverse
torque is applied to the motor in a regenerative stopping mode, which will
occur for approximately 450ms.
Coast
An internal controller fault opens the DROK contact. Coasting will only
occur if the DROK contact is not wired to the line/DB contactor coil (M) or
the Enable input circuits.
