Power Failure Backup Module
Descriptions
A-53866E-464
For this function, the power failure backup module is used in combination with sub module R.
After a power failure occurs, the power failure backup module performs control (resistance
regeneration control) in which the regenerative energy due to motor deceleration is consumed by
the resistor inside sub module R. If you use a linear motor, a synchronous built-in motor, or a
motor for use in large-inertia and low-speed rotation, both sub module C and the supplement
capacitor unit are required.
(3) Gravity-axis drop prevention function at power failure
This function maintains motor excitation from the time a power failure occurs until the machine
brake for the vertical axis starts operating, so that the tool does not drop along the vertical axis
when a power failure occurs.
For this function, the power failure backup module is used alone.
If you use an αi series amplifier and six or less controlled axes, you can prevent gravity axis
drops without the power failure backup module, by providing an external power failure detector
(or a relay as a substitute). For details, refer to the Specifications A-65282EN/05-03, " Prevention
of Gravity Axis Drop at Power Failure in αi series servo system ".
