The Kinetix 5500 capacitor module provides 1360 μF capacitance for applications where the
Kinetix 5500 internal shunt module capacity is exceeded. The capacitor module can be used
alone or in combination with a Bulletin 2097 external shunt module for applications with
excessive regenerative energy.
The Kinetix 5500 capacitor module is an option for Bulletin 2198 servo drive configurations
with 200V or 400V-class operation.
Use the 2198-CAPMOD-1300 capacitor module in Kinetix 5500 drive configurations where
DC bus power is shared through the shared-bus connection system. You cannot use the
capacitor module in configurations where only AC input power is shared.
Refer to the Kinetix 5500 Servo Drives User Manual, publication 2198-UM001
information on wiring, applying power, troubleshooting , and integration with ControlLogix® or
CompactLogix™ controllers.

Before You Begin
Remove all packing material, wedges, and braces from within and around the components. After
unpacking, check the item nameplate catalog number against the purchase order.
The Kinetix 5500 servo drives are shipped with the following:
• Wiring plug for the module status (MS) connector
• These installation instructions, publication 2198-IN004
Install the Kinetix 5500 Capacitor Module
These procedures assume that you have prepared your panel, mounted your Kinetix 5500 servo
drives, and understand how to bond your system. For installation instructions regarding
equipment and accessories not included here, refer to the instructions that came with those
products.
SHOCK HAZARD: To avoid the hazard of electrical shock, perform all mounting and wiring of
the Kinetix 5500 drive modules prior to applying power. Once power is applied, connector
terminals may have voltage present even when not in use.
ATTENTION: Plan the installation of your system so that you can perform all cutting, drilling,
tapping, and welding with the system removed from the enclosure. Because the system is of
open type construction, be careful to keep any metal debris from falling into it. Metal debris or
other foreign matter can become lodged in the circuitry, which can result in damage to
components.
Zero-stack Tab and Cutout
Engaging the zero-stack tab and cutout from drive-to-drive is required for shared-bus drive
systems and includes the Bulletin 2198 capacitor module. This is done to make sure the drive
connectors are spaced properly to accept the shared-bus connection system.

additional mounting information.
You can mount the capacitor modules to the right of any frame size, but are always rightmost in
any drive configuration.
Mount drives in descending order, left to right, according to frame size with capacitor
modules always mounted on the far right.
The shared-bus connection system is required for capacitor module installations.

ATTENTION: To avoid personal injury and/or equipment damage, observe the following:
• Make sure installation complies with specifications regarding wire types, conductor sizes,
branch circuit protection, and disconnect devices. The National Electrical Code (NEC) and local
codes outline provisions for safely installing electrical equipment.
• Use power connectors for connection purposes only. Do not use them to turn the unit on and off.
• Ground shielded power cables to prevent potentially high voltages on the shield.
