 Above photo represents a QuickStart Kit.
Kit cabling varies with MDrive Linear Actuator ordered. |
For rapid design verifi cation, all-inclusive Order QuickStart Kits simply by placing a “K” at the beginning of an MDrive part number. Connecting an MDrive has never been easier with readily available Communications Converters and Prototype Development Cables, in addition to Mating Connector Kits for use in building your own cables. Select the “Connectivity solutions” tab above for details on these connectivity options. |
Internal encoder
The internal encoder option is a 512-line (2048 count) differential magnetic encoder. The internal magnetic encoder offers two key advantages:
- Reduced connections externally, thus reduced system cabling, as encoder feedback is all internal to the MDrivePlus.
- Smaller footprint to the MDrivePlus than an externally mounted encoder.
NOTE: To view specific connectivity options for a particular MDrive model, see Connector options by P/N tab above.
Communications
Ethernet communication utilizes a standard RJ45 connector and CAT5/6 cabling. This cabling is readily available from multiple sources.
Prototype Development Cables
Prototype development cables are designed to speed test/development with pre-wired mating connectors that have flying leads other end.
| Prototype Development Cable P/N | Mating Connector Type | Signal Type |
| PD14-2334-FL3 | 14-Pin Locking Wire Crimp | I/O |
| PD02-2300-FL3 | 2-Pin Locking Wire Crimp | DC Power |
If building your own cabling, you will need:
- Appropriate mating connector and crimp pins if required (Mating connector kits are available for Locking Wire Crimp style connectors)
- Shielded twisted pair cabling
Mating Connector Kits
Mating Connector Kits are used to build your own cables. Kits contain 5 mating connector shells with pins. Cable not supplied. Manufacturer crimp tooling recommended.
| Mating Connector Kit P/N | Mating Connector Type | Shell Mfg. P/N | Crimp Pins Mfg. P/N |
| CK-09 | 14-Pin Locking Wire Crimp | JST: PADP-14V-1S | JST: SPH-001T-PO.5L |
| CK-04 | 2-Pin Locking Wire Crimp | Tyco: 794617-2 | Tyco: 794610-1 |
Drive Protection Module
The function of the DPM75 Drive Protection Module is to limit the surge current and voltage to a safe level when DC input power is switched on and off to a motor drive. This provides the added protection necessary for reliable motor drive operation when switching the DC power, instead of the recommended AC power to the DC power supply. The device is designed to protect the motor drive when operating under all load conditions. This device does not protect the motor drive from wiring the power incorrectly.
The unit is capable of being used with 48, 60, and 75 volt rated motor drives. An external jumper selection is available so the user can match the circuit to their particular application. The DPM75 is capable of a steady state operating current of 4 amps.
The DPM75 can be used for any frame size motor drive, when properly configured. It can also be used for more than one unit provided the current and voltage do not exceed the DPM75's ratings. The maximum DPM75 ratings are 75 volts and 4 amps.
