“AX5000 User manual” on the enclosed CD or CAUTION can be downloaded from our website at www.beckhoff.com. If you do not have access to the “AX5000 User manual” please refrain from working on the AX5000 and notify our support division.
Appropriate use The servo drives of the AX5000 series are exclusively designed for torque, speed and position control of suitable asynchronous and synchronous three-phase current motors. The maximum permissible effective motor voltage must be at least equal the effective mains voltage fed into the servo drive.
BECKHOFF 1 Foreword Drive Technology Council Regulation 428/2009 has been changed accordingly, Frequency inverters (listed in item position 3A225) with „operating frequency of 600 Hz or more“ are now export controlled items. As a consequence some modifications have to be noticed.
All the components are supplied in particular hardware and software configurations appropriate for the application. Modifications to hardware or software configurations other than those described in the documentation are not permitted, and nullify the liability of Beckhoff Automation GmbH & Co. KG. 2.1.3 Description of safety symbols The following safety symbols with a adjoining safety advise are used in this manual.
The servo drives of the AX5000 series are not designed for stand-alone operation and must always be installed in a machine or system. After installation the additional documentation and safety instructions provided by the machine manufacturer must be read and followed.

BECKHOFF 5 Installation Drive Technology 5.2.3.2 Connection example - wiring in series without AX Bridge Wire the relevant connections using individual cables. Hazard to inviduals and equipment • Please ensure that the final supply network connection cable is adequately dimensioned. The dimensioning depends on the total rated CAUTION current and must comply with EN60204-1.
BECKHOFF 5 Installation Drive Technology Motors and cables With longer motor cables the resulting commutation currents can affect the control quality and lead to EMC faults. Use the tables below to check whether motor chokes or mains filters have to be used in your application. When selecting the control cabinet ensure that there is adequate space for motor chokes, mains filters, etc.
BECKHOFF Drive Technology 6 Important information for commissioning Important information for commissioning Caution – Risk of injury! Electronic equipment is not fail-safe. The machine manufacturer is responsible for ensuring that the connected motors and the machine are WARNING brought into a safe state in the event of a fault in the drive system.
BECKHOFF 7 Project planning – important information Drive Technology Project planning – important information The more thoroughly a machine or plant project is thought through in advance, the less risk there is of having to carry out expensive modifications during or after commissioning. This applies to both the mechanical and electrical design.
Use pre-assembled Beckhoff motor and feedback cables as these are optimally adapted to the drive system and reduce interference to a minimum. Ensure that the connectors are properly connected: this applies to the motor connector in particular.
