Warning The AMKASYN KU series is used for controlling AMK AC servo and main spindle motors. The manufacturer/operator of the installation as a whole is responsible for any damage resulting from use of the drive system in any way other than in the intended manner.
2 Brief system description The AMKASYN KU inverter is designed for feeding AMK AC motors. The digital inverter regulates the drive in 4 quadrant mode precisely and with high dynamic response. The feed is direct from a three- phase power supply . The latest power semiconductor technology in conjunction with high-grade integration guarantee high reliability.

3.4 External brake resistor Excess brake energy has to be converted to heat with an external brake resistor. The brake transistor is integrated in the KU inverter. The external brake resistor has to be connected via terminal X04 (RBP/RBN) with shielded cable. The shield must be grounded to PE at both ends.
4.3 Functional description The KU inverter contains the following functional groups: • Rectifier for generating the DC-Bus voltage. • Charging device for the DC-Bus • Brake transistor Braking energy from the motor is first fed into the DC-Bus. If the DC-Bus voltage exceeds its limit value of 780V, the brake transistor is activated and the surplus braking energy is converted into heat through the brake resistor.

• Microcontroller for Field orientation Motor encoder evaluation and monitoring Speed control Closed loop position control IGBT triggering Current control Monitor functions The microcontroller calculates cyclically the instantenous values of the nominal currents for the phases from the specified setpoint, the actual phase currents as well as the rotor position. The IGBT triggering is synchronized with the basic clock of 8 kHz, PWM based, in the form that the motor windings carry sinusoidal currents when stationary.

Square-wave pulse input (WAGO 8 pole female connector) Connection via twisted-pair shielded cable. The cable shield must be connected to PE at the inverter housing. An actual position acquisition is possible through differential inputs R1N, R1I, R2N, R2I by an external position measuring system with square-wave output. Also setpoint pulses e.g. for slepping motor control, synchronous control can be fed in through these inputs.

Loosen KU fastening screws at the mounting panel. Slightly lift the KU inverter and take it out towards you. Insert new KU inverter, lower it and securely tighten the fastening screws. Swing open KU front cover. Securely tighten all PE connections at the PE bolts. Securely reconnect power input (X01).
7.2 Exchange of the controller card KU-R01: Please pay attention: The option cards are connected to the controller card. Controller card KU- R01 and Option card(s) must be manipulated as one unit! Unplug WAGO connectors and motor encoder connector. Unscrew fixing screws of controller card KU-R01 and all option cards (2 captive screws each). Carefully pull out controller card and option cards.
