The Mitsubishi MDS-CH-AL-18.5K is a servo drive unit built for versatile control applications. It employs sine wave PWM control to enhance motor performance. This drive operates efficiently within a control power voltage range of 380 to 440 VAC for 50Hz applications and 380 to 480 VAC for 60Hz operations, ensuring stable performance across different electrical setups. The unit is rated for an ambient temperature storage between -15°C and 70°C, provided it is free from freezing conditions.
As for its enclosure, the MDS-CH-AL-18.5K has an open design classified as IP00, which suggests that it is intended for use in controlled environments. The drive can endure humidity levels of up to 90% relative humidity, both during operation and storage, without condensation. Additionally, the design caters to a maximum rush current of 18 A, while maintaining a noise level of less than 55 dB during operation. It requires a maximum control power current of only 0.1 A, which contributes to its efficiency.
This unit also has tolerances for fluctuations in control power voltage and frequency, allowing a control power voltage fluctuation tolerance of -0.6, and a frequency tolerance of ±3%. It also utilizes advanced braking methods, incorporating both regenerative and dynamic braking to support various motor control strategies.
