RS03/06-S/Q Hardware Manual 2.2 Mounting the Hardware Use the M3 or M4 screw to mount the RS series drive .The drive should be securely fastened to a smooth ,flat metal surface the will help conduct heat away from the chassis. If this is not possible, forced airflow from a fan maybe required to prevent the drive from overheating.
RS03/06-S/Q Hardware Manual 2.3 Choosing a Power Supply The main considerations when choosing a power supply are the voltage and current requirements for the application. 2.3.1 Voltage The RS driver is designed to give optimum performance between 24 and 70 Volts DC. Choosing the voltage depends on the performance needed and motor/drive heating that is acceptable and/ or does not cause a drive over-temperature.
RS03/06-S/Q Hardware Manual 2.3.3 Current The maximum supply currents required by the RS series step servo drive and motor are shown below in chats at different power supply voltage input. The RS drive power supply current is lower than the winding currents because it uses switching amplifiers to convert a high voltage and low current into low voltage and high current.
