The Mitsubishi FR-A5AP is a versatile plug-in option unit crafted for seamless integration with the FR-A500(L) and FR-V500 inverter series. It specializes in supporting various functionalities including encoder feedback control and orientation control while also allowing pulse train input.
To function correctly, this unit requires an encoder power supply of at least 5V DC with a minimum current of 400mA. Operating in vector control mode, it can achieve maximum speed control of up to 3600 revolutions per minute (RPM) at a frequency of 120Hz. This capability contributes to a wide speed control range of 1:1000, making it suitable for applications requiring precision speed management.
The speed variation ratio is maintained at ±0.02% of the maximum speed, ensuring stability and accuracy during operations. The unit boasts a stop position accuracy of ±1.5 degrees, which is essential for applications demanding precise positioning. Frequency response rates from 10 to 20 rad/s further enhance the reliability of this option unit across dynamic conditions.
In terms of its environmental tolerances, the unit can operate in temperatures ranging from 0°C to 55°C and can be stored in conditions as cold as -20°C and as warm as 65°C. Dimensions for the unit measure 9.5 cm in length, 5.0 cm in width, and 2.0 cm in height, with a total weight of approximately 0.2 kg (0.44 lbs). This compact and lightweight design allows for easy integration into existing systems without significant modifications.
