About the MP-Series Low-inertia Motors
MP-Series™ low-inertia (Bulletin MPL) motors feature single-turn or multi-turn high resolution
encoders, and are available with 24V DC brakes. These compact brushless servo motors meet the
demanding requirements of high-performance motion systems.
Before You Begin

unpacking, verify the nameplate catalog number against the purchase order.
1. Remove the motor carefully from its shipping container.
2. Visually inspect the motor for any damage.
3. Examine the motor frame, front output shaft, and mounting pilot for any defects.
4. Notify the carrier of any shipping damage immediately.
Keep the original packing material in case you need to return the product for repair or transport
it to another location. Use both the inner and outer packing cartons to provide adequate
protection for a unit returned for service.
ATT EN TI ON : Do not attempt to open or modify this motor beyond changing the connector orientation as
described on Change Connector Orientation on page 9.
Only an authorized Allen-Bradley repair center can service this item. Refer to Rockwell Automation Support for
assistance to locate the nearest repair center.
Store or operate your motor in a clean and dry location within the environmental conditions
listed in Specifications
on page 21.
To Prolong Motor Life
Proper design and maintenance can increase the life of a servo motor. Follow these guidelines to
maximize the life of a servo motor within your environment:
• Always provide a drip loop in each cable to carry liquids away from the connection to the
motor.
• If possible, provide shields that protect the motor housing, shaft seals, and their
junctions from contamination by foreign matter or fluids.
Rockwell Automation Publication MP-IN002D-EN-P - January
MP-Series Low-inertia Servo Motor with 215 mm or Larger Frame Size 5
IMPORTANT
• Shaft seals are subject to wear and require periodic inspection and replacement.
Replacement is recommended every 3 months, not to exceed 12 months, depending on
use. Refer to Shaft Seal Kits on page 20 for more information on shaft seals.
• Inspect the motor and seals for damage or wear on a regular basis. If damage or excessive
wear is observed, replace the item.
• The brake option on this servo motor is a spring-set holding brake that releases when
voltage is applied to the brake coil. A separate power source is required to disengage the
brake. This power source can be applied by a servo motor controller or manual operator
control.
If system main power fails, holding brakes can withstand occasional use as stopping
brakes. However, this creates rotational mechanical backlash that can cause damage to
the system, increase brake wear, and reduce brake life.
Holding brakes are not designed to stop rotation of the motor shaf t, and they are not intended to be used as a
safety device. They are designed to hold a motor shaft at 0 rpm for up to the rated brake holding torque.
Follow these steps to prevent motor shaft rotation.
1. Command the servo drive to 0 rpm.
2. Verify the motor is at 0 rpm.
3. Engage the brake.
4. Disable the drive.
Disabling the drive removes the potential for brake wear caused by a badly-tuned servo system oscillating
the shaft.
Using Shaft Seals
An additional seal is required on the motor shaft near the motor front bearing if the shaft is
exposed to fluids or significant amounts of fine dust. This includes lubricating oil from a
gearbox. An IP66 rating for the motor requires the use of a shaft seal and environmentally sealed
connectors/cables. The additional seal is not recommended in applications where the motor
shaft area is free of liquids or fine dust, and a lower rating is sufficient:
• Refer toSpecifications on page 21 for a brief description of the IP rating for these
MP-Series motors.
• Refer toShaft Seal Kits on page 20 to find the catalog numbers of seal kits available for
your motor.
• Refer to Kinetix® Motion Accessories Specifications, publication GMC-TD004, to find
environmentally sealed connectors and cables compatible with the MP-Series motors.
Rockwell Automation Publication MP-IN002D-EN-P - January
6 MP-Series Low-inertia Servo Motor with 215 mm or Larger Frame Size
Using Couplings and Pulleys
Mechanical connections to the motor shaft, such as couplings and pulleys, require a torsionally
rigid coupling or a reinforced timing belt. The high dynamic performance of servo motors can
cause couplings, pulleys, or belts to loosen or slip over time. A loose or slipping connection can
cause system instability and damage the motor shaft. All connections between the system and the
servo motor shaft must be rigid to achieve acceptable response from the system. Periodically
inspect connections to verify their rigidity.
When mounting couplings or pulleys to the motor shaft, be sure that the connections are
properly aligned and that axial and radial loads are within the specifications of the motor. Refer
to Shaft Seal Kits
on page 20 for guidelines to achieve 20,000 hours of motor bearing life.
ATT EN TI ON : Damage can occur to the motor bearings and the feedback device if sharp impact to the shaft is
applied during installation of couplings and pulleys. Damage to the feedback device can result by applying
leverage from the motor mounting face to remove devices mounted on the motor shaft.
Do not strike the shaft, couplings, or pulleys with tools during installation or removal. Use a wheel puller
applying pressure from the user end of the shaft to remove any friction-fit or stuck device from the motor shaft.
Preventing Electrical Noise
Electromagnetic interference (EMI), commonly called noise, can adversely impact motor
performance by inducing stray signals.
Follow these guidelines to prevent the effects of EMI:
• Isolate the power transformers, or install line filters on all AC input power lines.
• Separate signal cables from motor cabling and power wiring. Do not route signal cables
with motor and power wires, or over the vent openings of servo drives.
• Ground all equipment by using a single-point parallel ground system that employs
ground bus bars or large straps. If necessary, use additional electrical noise reduction
techniques to reduce EMI in noisy environments.
Refer to System Design for Control of Electrical Noise Reference Manual, publication
GMC-RM001
system level electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
, for additional information on reducing the effects of EMI by improving the
Rockwell Automation Publication MP-IN002D-EN-P - January
MP-Series Low-inertia Servo Motor with 215 mm or Larger Frame Size 7
Build and Install the Cables
Correct cable routing and careful cable construction improves system electromagnetic
compatibility (EMC).
Follow these guidelines to build and install the cables:
• Keep the wire lengths as short as possible.
• Route noise sensitive wiring (encoder, serial, and I/O) away from input power and motor
power wiring.
• Separate cables by 0.3 m (1 ft) minimum for every 9 m (30 ft) of parallel run.
• Ground both ends of the encoder cable shield and twist the signal wire pairs to prevent
EMI from other equipment.
ATT ENT IO N: High voltage can be present on the shield of a power cable, if the shield is not grounded.
Verify that there is a connection to ground for any power cable shield.
ATTENTION: MP-Series motors produce leakage current in the protective earthing conductor that exceeds
3.5 mA AC and/or 10 mA DC.
Be sure to properly ground the motor cables per the drive installation instructions.
Ground Shielded Signal Wires within a Power Cable
Always connect the shield on any signal wire pair routed inside a power cable to the overall
machine ground.
If you are installing a 2090-XXNPMF-xxSxx or 2090-CPBM4DF-xxAFxx power with brake
cable, loop the signal wire pairs to the overall cable shield as shown in Grounding of Signal Wire
Shields in a Power Cable on page 8. Then clamp all of the shields together in the power cable
(chassis) ground connection on the drive.

2090-XXNPMF-xxSxx (shown) contains two signal wire pairs.
2090-CPBM4DF-xxAFxx contains one signal wire pair.
Grounding of Signal Wire Shields in a Power Cable
The signal wire pairs within a power cable often carry a 24V DC brake signal, but can also carry
logic signals. Grounding the shield that surrounds the signal wires dissipates an induced voltage
and reduces the effects of EMI.
Install the Motor
MP-Series motors include a mounting pilot for aligning the motor on the machine. Preferred
fasteners are hardened steel. The installation must comply with all local regulations and use
equipment and installation practices that promote safety and electromagnetic compatibility.
ATTENTION: Unmounted motors, disconnected mechanical couplings, loose shaft keys, and disconnected
cables are dangerous if power is applied.
Rockwell Automation Publication MP-IN002D-EN-P - January
Lock-out and tag-out disassembled equipment (restrict electrical power).
Before applying power to the motor, remove the shaft key and other mechanical couplings that can be thrown
from the shaft.
ATTENTION: Make sure that cables are installed and restrained to prevent uneven tension or flexing at the
cable connections.
Excessive and uneven lateral force on the cable can inhibit environmental sealing as the cable flexes.
MP-Series Low-inertia Servo Motor with 215 mm or Larger Frame Size 9
Change Connector Orientation
You can rotate the connector housings up to 180°.
• The M23 feedback connector and the M40 power/brake connector are rotatable.
• The M58 power/brake connector, on MPL-B8xx and MPL-B9xx motors with higher
current requirements, must be removed and repositioned in 90° increments.
This lets you rotate the connector into a position that best protects the connection from possible
environmental contaminates while providing cable access.
ATTENTION: Connectors are designed to be rotated into a fixed position during motor installation, and remain
in that position without further adjustment. Do not rotate the connector multiple times, and do not use tools or
excessive force to rotate the connector. Excessive rotation or force can damage the connector seal and reduce
the international protection (IP) rating of the motor as outlined in Specifications
Rotate the M23 Feedback or M40 Power/Brake Circular DIN Connector
Follow these steps to rotate an M23 feedback or a M40 power/brake connector.
1. Mount and fully seat a mating cable on either the feedback or power/brake connector.
2. Grasp the mated connector and cable plug with your hands and slowly rotate them to the
outside of the motor.
ATTENTION: Apply force to only the motor connector and cable plug. Do not apply force to the cable
extending from the cable plug. Do not use tools (for example, pliers and vise-grips) to rotate the connector.
on page 21.
Rotate the M58 Power/Brake Circular DIN Connector
Follow these steps to rotate a M58 power/brake DIN connector.
1. Remove the four 10-32 x 5/8 locking screws from the connector housing.
2. Rotate the connector housing 90° or 180°.
If binding of the wire bundles prevents rotation of the connector, follow these steps to
access the internal motor wiring.
a. Remove the four screws from the rear cover of the motor.
b. Carefully reposition the wires around the perimeter of the motor feedback device
under the rear cover.
c. Verify that wires are not close to any rotating parts.
d. Verify that the gaskets and all of the wires are positioned correctly.
e. Replace the rear cover.
3. Torque the locking screws to 6.8 N•m (60 lb•in).

Mount the Motor
Follow these steps to mount the motor.
ATT EN TI ON : Damage can occur to the motor bearings and the feedback device if sharp impact to the shaft is
applied during installation of couplings and pulleys.
Do not strike the shaft, couplings, or pulleys with tools during installation or removal.
1. Provide sufficient clearance, heatsink mass, and air flow for the motor so it stays within
the operating temperature range of 0…40 °C (32…104 °F).
Do not enclose the motor unless cooling air is forced across the motor, and keep other
heat producing devices away from the motor. Heatsink requirements are listed in a
footnote to the Specifications
ATTENTION: Outer surfaces of the motor can reach high temperatures of 125 °C (275 °F) during
operation.
Take precautions to prevent accidental contact with hot surfaces. Consider motor surface
temperature when selecting connections and cables to install on a motor.
2. Verify the axial and radial shaft loads of your application do not exceed those listed in the
Motor Load Force Ratings on page 16.
3. Position the motor on the machine with its connectors pointing downward.
4. Insert and hand-tighten the fasteners in each of the four mounting holes in the motor
faceplate.
5. The mounting hole diameter is specified in the Product Dimensions
6. Align the motor on the machine by using the mounting pilot hole to verify the correct
alignment.

Attach the Motor Cables
Follow these steps to attach the feedback and power/brake cables after the motor is mounted.
ATTENTION: Servo drive power must be turned off before connecting or disconnecting the cables to the motor, and
if a cable is left disconnected at the motor end.
Arcing or unexpected motion can occur if the feedback, power, or brake cables are connected or disconnected while
power is applied to the servo drive.
ATTENTION: Be sure that cables are installed and restrained to prevent uneven tension or flexing at the cable
connectors. Provide support at 3 m (10 ft) intervals throughout the cable run.
Excessive and uneven lateral force at the cable connectors can result in the connector’s environmental seal opening
and closing as the cable flexes, or wires separating at the cable gland.
1. Verify the seal and O-rings are installed as shown in the diagram.
An O-ring on the feedback connector, and a backshell seal on the feedback and
power/brake connector, is necessary to achieve the maximum environmental rating.
• A backshell seal covers the joint inside the feedback and
power/brake housings. It seals the joint between the
backshell and the housing of the connector.
• Verify that the backshell seal is not damaged, and it is
fully seated against the face of the backshell.

Motor Load Force Ratings
Motors are capable of operating with a sustained shaft load. The load force locations are shown
in the figure and maximum values are in the tables.
Loads are measured in kilograms; pounds are mathematical conversions.
Load Forces on Shaft
The following tables represent 20,000 hour L10 bearing fatigue life at various loads and speeds.
This 20,000 hour life does not account for possible application-specific life reduction that can
occur due to bearing grease contamination from external sources.

Apply a constant force
evenly across the top of the key.
Remove and Install a Shaft Key
Shaft keys are constructed of steel. The specified tolerance provides an interference fit (slightly
larger than the opening) for a secure and rigid connection.
ATTENTION: Do not strike the motor’s shaft, couplings, or pulleys with tools during installation or removal of the
shaft key.
Damage can occur to the motor bearings and the feedback device if a sharp impact is applied to the shaft during
installation of couplings and pulleys, or to remove the shaft key, or if leverage is applied from the motor mounting
face to remove devices mounted on t he motor shaft.
Apply a constant pressure, with a wheel puller, to the user end of the shaft to remove a friction fit or stuck device.
To remove a shaft key, perform one of these actions:
• Lift the key by grasping it with a pliers or similar tool.
• Lever the key with a screwdriver inserted between the key and the slot.
To install a shaft key, follow these steps.
1. Verify the replacement key matches the keyway in the shaft and the mating mechanical
connection (for example, a coupling or pulley) before proceeding.
2. Align the front of the key with the front of the motor shaft.
This prevents the radiused end-of-cut at the motor end of the keyway from interfering
with correct seating of the key.
Support the underside of the shaft diameter with a fixture, and use a controlled press device to
apply a constant force across the top surface to press the key into the shaft.

Motor Cables and Accessory Kits
This section describes accessories that are available for MP-Series low-inertia motors.
Motor Cables
Factory manufactured feedback and power cables are available in standard cable lengths. They
provide the sealing needed to achieve environmental ratings and shield termination.
For a complete listing of available cables, contact your nearest Rockwell Automation sales office
or refer to the Kinetix Motion Accessories Specifications Technical Data, publication
GMC-TD004
Shaft Seal Kits
A shaft seal is a barrier that can prevent moisture and particles from entering the motor bearings.
Shaft seals are subject to wear and require periodic inspection and replacement. Replacement is
recommended every 3 months, not to exceed 12 months, depending on use.
Catalog numbers for the motors and corresponding replacement Nitrile shaft seal kits are listed
in the table.
Motor Cat. No. Shaft Seal Kit Cat. No.

.
Shaft seals must be lubricated. Lubricant is supplied with the shaft seal kits.
Third-party shaft seals are not approved for use with these motors. The use of third-party shaft seals voids any
implied or expressed warranties.
