Appropriate use
Synchronous servomotors of the AM3000 and AM3500 series are designed as drives for handling equipment,
textile machines, machine tools, packaging machines and similar machines with demanding requirements in
terms of dynamics. The motors of the AM3000 and AM3500 series are
exclusively intended for speed- and/or
torque-controlled operation via digital servo drives from Beckhoff.
The thermal protection contact incorporated in the motor windings must be analysed and monitored.
WARNING
Caution – Risk of injury!
Electronic equipment is not fail-safe. The machine manufacturer is responsible for ensuring that
the connected motors and the machine are brought into a safe state in the event of a fault in the
drive system.
The servomotors from the AM3000 and AM3500 series are exclusively designed for installation as components
in electrical systems or machines and may only be operated as integrated components of the system or
machine.
The motors may
only be operated under the ambient conditions defined in this documentation.
