Description

Full Product Specification & Description

1. Product Overview

MDS60A0022-5A3-4-04 is a 2.2 kW compact servo drive belonging to the MOVIDRIVE® MD60A product line. It is specially designed to drive permanent magnet synchronous motors equipped with resolver feedback. This unit delivers reliable speed, position and torque control for industrial automation systems. It comes with a built-in Class A EMC filter and an integrated brake chopper to support full 4-quadrant operation. The suffix 04 represents a special customized firmware version developed for dedicated application requirements, retaining all core hardware performance while featuring adjusted program logic and extended parameter settings compared with the standard edition.

2. Model Code Explanation

MDS stands for servo drives for synchronous motors within the MD60A series. 60A refers to the unified MOVIDRIVE® MD60A hardware platform. The code 0022 indicates the rated power of 2.2 kW. 5A3 means the device accepts three-phase 380 V to 500 V AC power input and is fitted with an internal Class A EMC filter. The digit 4 denotes support for 4-quadrant operation and a factory-installed brake chopper. The final code 04 is a special firmware variant, different from the standard 00 version and the technology 0T version, which is tailored for specific on-site functional demands.

3. Electrical Specifications

The drive operates with a three-phase AC input voltage ranging from 380 V to 500 V with a voltage tolerance of plus or minus 10 percent, and the applicable input frequency is 50 Hz and 60 Hz. The rated input current is 5.0 A. The rated output apparent power reaches 3.8 kVA, and the rated output current is 5.5 A. The maximum output frequency covers 0 Hz to 180 Hz. This servo drive adopts advanced CFC current flux vector control technology to ensure high-precision and high-dynamic motor control. It supports standard overload capacity, running at 150 percent of rated current for 60 seconds and 200 percent of rated current for 3 seconds to cope with transient load changes.

4. Mechanical & Environmental Parameters

The overall dimension of the servo drive is approximately 105 mm in width, 273 mm in height and 315 mm in depth. The net weight is around 4.2 kilograms. The protection class of the whole unit is IP20, which is suitable for installation inside standard electrical cabinets. The product complies with CE, UL and RoHS certification standards, meeting international industrial safety and environmental requirements. It is designed for indoor industrial working environments with good ventilation, and can work stably under conventional temperature and humidity conditions for long-term continuous operation.

5. Core Hardware & Functional Features

This servo drive is equipped with a built-in Class A EMC filter, which effectively suppresses electromagnetic interference during operation and improves compatibility with surrounding electrical equipment without requiring additional external filter components. The integrated brake chopper enables stable regenerative energy processing during deceleration and reversing movements, realizing reliable 4-quadrant operation. The device is configured with a dedicated resolver interface to collect motor position signals and guarantee accurate closed-loop control. It is embedded with complete overcurrent, overvoltage, undervoltage, overload and short-circuit protection functions to safeguard both the drive and the matched motor.

6. Firmware Characteristics of Version 04

Firmware version 04 is a customized edition based on the standard firmware. It reserves all basic servo control functions including speed control, position control and torque control. Different from the standard 00 version, it is optimized with extended parameter groups and adjusted control logic to adapt to special process demands of specific equipment. It does not include the advanced motion functions such as electronic cam, master-slave synchronization and flying shear that come with the 0T technology version. This firmware is mainly applied to projects that need slight function customization while keeping basic servo performance unchanged.

7. Applicable Scope & Typical Applications

This servo drive is widely used in general industrial automation scenarios that require medium power and high-precision motion control. It is ideal for high-precision positioning and indexing axes in automated production lines. It can be applied to conventional automated assembly equipment, material handling systems and light-duty processing machinery. It is also a proper choice for equipment renovation and replacement projects where customized firmware functions are required. It fits all working conditions that rely on basic servo control and have special parameter or logic setting needs.

8. Product Advantages

The compact overall structure saves installation space inside electrical cabinets and facilitates layout and wiring. The all-in-one design with EMC filter and brake chopper reduces the number of external accessories and lowers overall system cost and installation workload. The servo control system features fast dynamic response and stable running performance. The customized 04 firmware can match special on-site application demands flexibly. The complete protection mechanism ensures high operational safety and long service life, and the whole unit is easy for parameter commissioning and daily maintenance.
