  • Page 9: System Description

    Configurable motor voltage The SPA2-2 motor voltage can be configured by software to support a wide range of motor voltages within the range of 12 V and 60 V. The current limit can also be configured up to a maximum of 5 A continuous, 10 A peak.
  • Page 10: System Requirements

    SPA2-2 installation guide www.renishaw.com System requirements Electrical requirements The SPA2-2 is powered from the ac mains supply via a connector to IEC 60320/C14. The electrical ratings of the unit are as follows: 100 Vac ­ 120 Vac and 220 Vac ­ 240 Vac –15%, +10% 47 Hz to 63 Hz 750 W maximum This equipment must be connected to a protective earth conductor via a three core mains (line) cable.
  • Page 11: System Components

    * Category 2 to EN954-1:1996 (ISO13849-1:1999). The SPA2-2 range of products is capable of being configured to enable support of a wide range of motor and tacho feedback giving compatibility with most machine constructions.
  • Page 12 This system enables two SPA2-2 units to be combined as a single system and configured to drive the CMM installation. For example; if required, a single SPA2-2 can power a single axis, or if in a dual drive configuration the two dual axis motors can be supplied from separate SPA2-2 units and the other two axes to be integrated such that each SPA2-2 drives two motors.

  • Page 15 SPA2-2 comms connection The comms link between the UCC BI and the SPA2-2 is made using two RJ45 cables (P-CA82-0017) provided in the SPA2-2 kit. The UCC BI port SPA-A should be connected to the SPA2-2 port SPA-A The UCC BI port SPA-B should be connected to the SPA2-2 port SPA-B If the provided RJ45 cables are not used then the cables should be no longer than 400 mm in length, CAT 5E and shielded.
  • Page 16 MCU, RS232, PICS, servo power amplifier / E-STOP cable and machine I/O should be connected to UCC BI 1. NOTE: E-STOP cable (A-5208-0011) is supplied only with the SPA2-2 dual, DC, and linear kits. CAUTION: The capability to use the UCC BI in a dual SPA system or a system using absolute scales is not yet available, please contact CMM support for further information.
  • Page 17 SPA2-2 installation guide www.renishaw.com UCC BI to SPA2-2 NOTE: The connection between the UCC BI's servo power amplifier socket and the SPA2-2's controller E-STOP plug is made by cable A-5121-0062. This cable is provided with the SPA2-2 (A-5402-8300). Issued 01 2018...

    E-STOP LED Air cooling fan inlet LED positions and axis link 3-axis / 6-axis These LEDs indicate the status of the servo engagement within the SPA2-2 unit as shown in the table below: Axis status LED colour System status The SPA2-2 has no power being applied to the system or these axes are not fitted.
  • Page 19 This red LED indicates if the emergency stop system has been activated. Air cooling fan inlet The SPA2-2 requires air cooling, the inlet being through this fan. The airflow to the fan must not be obstructed. A minimum of 50 mm clearance in front of the fan is required.
  • Page 20: Rear Panel Description

    Rear panel description When the SPA2-2 is delivered it will be in a configurable format and it will be necessary for the motor connection cards to be fitted by the installer prior to applying power. 3-axis system rear panel...
  • Page 21: Motor Connector

    NOTE: Connections A and B are used for a three or four axis SPA2-2 system, connections C and D are only used when a six or seven axis system is contained within a single box. Refer to 'Interconnection schemes' section for further details.
  • Page 22 It is strongly recommended that all connections be fitted by a competent technician or engineer and that all wires should be sleeved. It should not be necessary to switch off the SPA2-2 in an emergency but if a requirement is indicated by the user's risk assessment, emergency switching off for the complete machine must be implemented externally to the SPA2-2.
  • Page 23 NOTE: The motor and tacho polarities on this connector are software configured during the SPA2-2 installation process. WARNING: If the SPA2-2 is being integrated on a dual axes DCC driven machine it is essential that the motor polarities on the dual axes are the same.
  • Page 24 WARNING: Pins with the function reserved for future expansion must not be connected to any other system component. If the SPA2-2 is being integrated on a dual axes DCC driven machine it is essential that the motor polarities on the dual axes are the same.
  • Page 25 Encoder interface The encoder interface offers four axes of encoder input to the SPA2-2 system, each being a 15-way high density D-type connector, designed for digital tacho (encoder) input. The encoder interface is designed to accept signals from an RS422 compliant encoder (maximum input frequency 20 MHz).
  • Page 26: Hardware Configuration

    1. Remove the SPA2-2 from its transit packaging. 2. Place the SPA2-2 on a firm flat surface, with the front of the unit placed on the surface and the rear of the unit facing upward. 3. Remove the necessary connector protection covers from the rear of the SPA2-2. These are retained by spring clips and can be simply pulled out using the hole in the centre.
  • Page 27 Installation of 4th axis card 1. Place the SPA2-2 on a firm flat surface, with the base of the unit placed on the surface and the rear of the unit facing towards you. 2. Remove the four plastic bungs from the front of the side panels.
  • Page 28 8. Locate the 4th axis card onto the pillar mounts using the M3 screws supplied. Do not tighten these screws. 9. Using the jackscrews supplied, secure the 4th axis card connector through the location hole in the rear panel of the SPA2-2. Tighten the jackscrews (taking care not to overtighten) and then tighten the screws fitted in step 7.
  • Page 29 The following procedure is recommended to fit the rack mounting brackets to the SPA2-2: 1. Position the SPA2-2 on a firm flat surface, with either the left or right hand side of the unit placed on the surface and the front of the unit facing towards you.

    SPA2-2 cable preparation The cables for connecting the UCC controller and SPA2-2 to the host PC are provided with the controller and SPA kits. The OEM or retrofitter is responsible for the provision of the following cables:...
  • Page 31 Axis motors The axis motor connectors provide the power to the axis motors and, if appropriate, the motor tacho connections. For the SPA2-2 the maximum voltage is 60Vdc and the peak current is 10 amps. The actual peak current will be dependant on the size of motor fitted and how hard it needs to be driven, so cable sizes for 2 A, 5 A and 10 A are given in the table below.
  • Page 32 Other differences to be aware of when changing between SPA types are:- The 4th axis card for the SPA2-2 is different from the one for the SPA2 and cannot be interchanged, i.e. the 4th axis card must be correct one for the SPA type (the motor connections are the same on both so there is no problems on changing between SPA2 and SPA2-2 on an installation).
