    • Note that the necessary output current is depending on the load torque. Yet, the output current limits of the ESCON Module 50/8 are as follows; continuous max. 8 A / short-time (acceleration) max. 15 A. Hot plugging the USB Interface may cause Hardware Damage If the USB interface is being hot-plugged (connecting while the power supply is on), the possibly high differ- ences in potential of the two power supplies of controller and PC/Notebook can lead to damaged hardware.

    5.1.2 Supply Voltage To protect the ESCON Module 50/8, we recommend using an external circuit breaker, a TVS diode, and a capacitor in the voltage supply cable. In this regard, please note the following recommendations: Figure 5-25 Wiring of Voltage Supply Cable INPUT FUSE (FU1) An input fuse (FU1) is necessary in order to provide reverse polarity protection.
  • Page 38 TVS (transient voltage suppressor) diode (D1) to the voltage supply cable. CAPACITOR (C1) The function of the ESCON Module 50/8 does not necessarily require the use of an external capacitor (C1). To further reduce voltage ripple and feedback currents, an electrolytic capacitor can be connected to the voltage supply cable.
