- Page 3 Introduction The 231 Spindle Amplifier was designed to be used with the MPM1094R-1092 spindle motor. This motor is wound in a WYE configuration with four windings in each leg of the WYE that are connected with a system of relay switches mounted on the side of the motor that change the motor KE and KT.

- Page 10 I/O Wiring and Descriptions The amplifier has five inputs and two outputs. These inputs and outputs are designed to interface to a 24 volt logic system. The amplifier is shipped so that the operation of the inputs is as follows. With no wires connected to ENB, SPD, or SHFT, the amplifier is not enabled and normal operation will not occur.
- Page 11 Ramps are enabled by default. Grounding PIN 12 (ramps) disables ramping. Grounding PIN 13 (orient) causes the motor shaft to rotate at 1 rps. There is a connector for control purposes inside the motor. The four possible speed ranges are identified as LOW 1, 2, 3, and HI 4. The user has to devise the logic as to how to operate the relays based on the amplifier control inputs.

- Page 14 Analog Inputs (Specific Interface Requirements) The analog input channel is a differential input amplifier to allow controllers that have differential output drivers a three wire connection that excludes potential ground loops. When differential modes of operation are used, the command input is based on 5 volts equaling maximum input and the analog ground from the external controller must be connected to the MPA drives GND connection.

With the shorting pin in the bipolar position, the output CUR signal is plus for positive current and minus for negative current. - Page 16 SPINDLE ORIENT ENABLE JP19 enabled disabled (STANDARD) The position of this jumper determines whether the shaft will turn at 1 rps when PIN 13 is grounded. ORIENT DIRECTION JP11 CW (viewed from shaft end) (STANDARD) The position of this jumper determines which direction the motor will turn when the orient feature is enabled.
- Page 17 AC Input and Internal Protection A branch circuit disconnect must be provided in front of the amplifier. Model Three Phase Power MPA-80-231 60 amps 80-260 Vac AC power wiring must be consistent with any local codes, national electric codes, and be able to withstand the voltage current ratings applied.
- Page 18 Grounding The ac supply source for the amplifier is supposed to be bonded to earth ground. Typical WYE Secondary L1 (HOT) L2 (HOT) L3 (HOT) EARTH GROUND Typical Delta Secondary L1 (HOT) L2 (HOT) L3 (HOT) EARTH GROUND These are the two most typical transformer configurations and failure to ground these properly could void warranty.
- Page 19 There are too many transformers to depict all combinations. The MPA amplifier does not care where the earth ground is. This example is a delta secondary. Delta Secondary L1 (HOT) L3 (HOT) L2 (NEUTRAL) EARTH GROUND In this example, L2 became ground.
- Page 20 Power/Grounding Requirements The following information covers the grounding requirements of 3-phase servo amplifiers manufactured by MTS Automation. It has been found when an amplifier has been connected to a transformer with an ungrounded secondary, premature amplifier failure will occur. The 3-phase MPA amplifiers require the AC power (L1, L2, L3, and Ground) be derived from a transformer which has it's secondary intentionally bonded to earth ground.
- Page 21 Example 1 shows a typical factory configuration. It shows a ungrounded delta secondary and there is existing equipment already running. on line. This equipment could be simple 3-phase induction motors where an ungrounded secondary is not an issue. However, before a 3-phase MPA amplifier, or a machine utilizing 3-phase amplifiers, can be connected, an isolation transformer, with a grounded secondary must be installed.

- Page 25 Spindle Amplifier Shunt Loads Regenerative energy during deceleration causes the normal voltage on the amplifiers bus to increase. The amount of energy is application dependent and relates to total inertia. In general the amplifiers internal shunt load can dissipate this energy within the constraint that the load inertia is not more than 20 times that of the rotor but this is a guideline.

Page 26: Thermal Characteristics
Thermal Characteristics The amplifiers are specified to operate at a 45° C ambient. This is not a maximum safe operating specification. There are no parts in the amplifier that can not operate at a 60° C temperature. The absolute maximum temperatures that the amplifier can operate at are determined by thermal switches on the bridge switch power devices (IGBT's) and on the shunt loads. - Page 27 External Inductors External inductors can be placed in the amplifier R, S, and T leads to assure that the minimum inductance specification is achieved. 230 volt models are .5mH.

- Page 29 Inductor Box IBX-100-.5mH In applications where other equipment is supplied in the same enclosure and there is a requirement to reduce the effects of radiated noise, the inductors are available pre-mounted in an enclosure. To properly reduce the affects of radiated noise, the motor cable, RST, and GND, must be in a 100% shielded cable.
- Page 30 Start-Up Once normal wiring is verified, power can be applied to the amplifier. Assure the inputs are what are required. The Enable Input will disable the amplifier if it is not connected. The CUR and RESP adjustments are turned down (CCW). CUR is 50% and RESP is minimal.
