    Brushless Motor and Driver Package BLH Series OPERATING MANUAL Thank you for purchasing an Oriental Motor product. This operating manual describes product handling procedures and safety precautions. • Please read it thoroughly to ensure safe operation. • Always keep the manual where it is readily available.

  • Page 2: Introduction

    Overview of the product The BLH series is a brushless motor unit that adopts a slim, high-torque brushless motor and an open-case high-precision compact driver of 24 VDC input type. The product is available in three types;...
  • Page 3 1 Introduction • For Low Voltage Directive • Since this product is based on 24 VDC power supply input, it is outside the application scope of Low Voltage Directives. • When applying the equipment incorporating this product to the Low Voltage Directive, connect the driver power supply input to the DC power supply where the primary and secondary sides are provided with reinforced insulation.

  • Page 4: Safety Precautions

    2 Safety precautions 2 Safety precautions Only qualified personnel should work with the product. Use the product correctly after thoroughly reading the section “Safety precautions”. The precautions described below are intended to prevent danger or injury to the user and other personnel through safe, correct use of the product. Use the product only after carefully reading and fully understanding these instructions.
  • Page 5 2 Safety precautions Operation • Turn off the driver power supply in the event of a power failure, or the motor may suddenly start when the power is restored and may cause injury or damage to equipment. • Do not use it in a vertical applications. When the driver protection function is triggered, the motor will stop operating.
  • Page 6 2 Safety precautions • Before moving the motor directly with the hands (as in the case of manual positioning), confirm that the driver operation input is “OFF” to prevent injury. • Do not perform the motor’s starting and stopping operations by turning the power supply on and off.

  • Page 7: Precautions For Use

    BLH series. • Do not perform gravitational load operation With the BLH series, any operation in which the motor output shaft is turned from the load side (gravitational load operation) will disable the motor speed control. In addition, a gravitational load operation will cause the driver’s primary inverter voltage to exceed the allowable value, thereby triggering a protection function and causing the motor to stop spontaneously.

However, the rotating direction of the motor output shaft may vary from that of the gearhead output shaft depending on the gear ratio of the gearhead.

  • Page 41: Setting The Running Speed

    7 Operation 7.3 Setting the running speed Set the operating speed of the motor using the internal speed potentiometer, external speed potentiometer or external DC voltage. The motor speed range is from 100 to 3000 r/min for the case of the motor alone. Two running speeds can be set by combining the internal potentiometer and external potentiometer, or the internal potentiometer and external DC voltage.
  • Page 42 7 Operation Setting by external potentiometer This potentiometer is used when the speed is set away from the driver or when two-step speed switching is performed in combination with the internal potentiometer. Use the accessory PAVR-20KZ as the external potentiometer. Clockwise rotation will increase the set speed.
  • Page 43 7 Operation Setting by external DC voltage External DC voltage is used when the speed is set by D/A output from an external control device such as a programmable controller, or when the speed is switched over two levels during operation in combination with the internal speed potentiometer.
