5.2 External shielding busbar
The power cable shields (line in, motor cable, external regen resistor)
can be routed to an additional busbar via shield clamps.
Kollmorgen recommends using Weidmüller KLBÜ shield clamps.
A possible scenario for setting up a busbar for the above shield
clamps is described below.
Accessories Europe | 5 Shield clamps
1. Cut a busbar of the required
length from a brass rail (cross-sec-
tion 10 x 3 mm) and drill holes in it
as indicated. All shield clamps
required must fit between the drill
holes.
CAUTION
Risk of injury due to the spring
force of the coil spring. Use pin-
cers.
2. Squeeze together the coil
spring and the supporting plate
and push the busbar through the
opening in the holder.
3. Mount the busbar with the
shield clamps fitted on the
assembly plate. Use either metal
spacer bushes or screws with nuts
and accessories to maintain a spa-
cing of 50 mm. Earth the busbar
using a single conductor with a
cross-section of at least 2.5 mm².
4. Strip the external cable sheath
to a length of approximately 30
mm, taking care not to damage
the braided shield. Push the
shield clamp up and route the
cable to it via the busbar.
Make sure there is good con-
tact between the shield clamp
and the braided shield.
