  • Page 12: Vacuum Operation

    Vacuum Guidelines To make sure that the ALS130H will continue to perform well in the vacuum environment, use the guidelines that follow (in addition to standard handling, installation, and lubrication guidelines outlined in this manual). Do not remove the ALS130H from its sealed bag until it is ready to use.
  • Page 13: Chapter 2: Installation

    W A R N I N G :  Lift the ALS130H only by the base. Improper handling could adversely affect the ALS130H ’s performance. W A R N I N G :  Do not attempt to move the carriage (or table top) of the ALS130H until the shipping brackets have been removed. Moving the carriage with the shipping brackets installed can cause permanent damage to the ALS130H.

  • Page 17: Attaching The Payload To The Stage

    N O T E : If your ALS130H was purchased with Aerotech controls, it might have been tuned with a representative payload based on the information provided at the time of order. If the ALS130H is started up without a payload, the servo gains provided by Aerotech with the shipment may not be appropriate and servo instability can occur.

    Aerotech motion control systems are adjusted at the factory for optimum performance. When the ALS130H is part of a complete Aerotech motion control system, setup usually involves connecting the ALS130H to the appropriate drive chassis with the cables provided. Labels on the system components usually indicate the appropriate connections.

    Electrical Specifications and Installation ALS130H Hardware Manual 3.2. Motor and Feedback Wiring All motor and controller manufacturers have their own designations for motor phases A/B/C and Hall signals A/B/C (refer to Section 3.5. for motor phasing). Shielded cables are required for the motor and feedback connections.

    5. All performance and electrical specifications ±10% 6. Maximum winding temperature is 125°C. 7. Ambient operating temperature range 0 °C - 25 °C; consult Aerotech for performance in elevated ambient temperatures 8. All Aerotech amplifiers are rated Apk; use force constant in N·m/Apk when sizing.
