1. FUNCTIONS AND CONFIGURATION
1. FUNCTIONS AND CONFIGURATION
1.1 Introduction
The Mitsubishi MELSERVO-J3 series general-purpose AC servo has further higher performance and higher
functions compared to the current MELSERVO-J2-Super series.
The MR-J3-B servo amplifier connects to servo system controller and others via high speed synchronous
network and operates by directly reading position data. The rotation speed/direction control of servo motor and
the high accuracy positioning are executed with the data from command module. SSCNET equipped by the
MR-J3-B servo amplifier greatly improved its communication speed and noise tolerance by adopting optical
communication system compared to the current SSCNET. For wiring distance, 50m of the maximum distance
between electrodes is also offered.
The torque limit with clamping circuit is put on the servo amplifier in order to protect the power transistor of
main circuit from the overcurrent caused by rapid acceleration/deceleration or overload. In addition, torque limit
value can be changed to desired value in the controller.
As this new series has the USB communication function, a MR Configurator-installed personal computer or the
like can be used to perform parameter setting, test operation, status display monitoring, gain adjustment, etc.
With real-time auto tuning, you can automatically adjust the servo gains according to the machine.
The MELSERVO-J3 series servo motor is with an absolute position encoder which has the resolution of
262144 pulses/rev to ensure more accurate control as compared to the MELSERVO-J2-Super series. Simply
adding a battery to the servo amplifier makes up an absolute position detection system. This makes home
position return unnecessary at power-on or alarm occurrence by setting a home position once.

Description

Reference

High-resolution encoder of 262144 pulses/rev is used as a servo motor
encoder.
Merely setting a home position once makes home position return
unnecessary at every power-on.
You can switch between gains during rotation and gains during stop or use
an input device to change gains during operation.

Chapter 12

This function suppresses vibration at the arm end or residual vibration.

Section 7.4

Section 7.6

Servo amplifier detects mechanical resonance and sets filter characteristics

Suppresses high-frequency resonance which occurs as servo system
Section 7.5
response is increased.
Analyzes the frequency characteristic of the mechanical system by simply
connecting a MR Configurator installed personal computer and servo
amplifier.
MR Configurator is necessary for this function.
Can simulate machine motions on a personal computer screen on the basis
of the machine analyzer results.
MR Configurator is necessary for this function.
Personal computer changes gains automatically and searches for overshootfree gains in a short time.
MR Configurator is necessary for this function.
Suppresses vibration of 1 pulse produced at a servo motor stop.
Automatically adjusts the gain to optimum value if load applied to the servo
motor shaft varies. Higher in performance than MR-J2-Super series servo
amplifier.
Used when the regenerative option cannot provide enough regenerative
power.
Can be used the 5kW or more servo amplifier.
Used when the regenerative option cannot provide enough regenerative
power.
Can be used the 5kW or more servo amplifier.
Used when the built-in regenerative resistor of the servo amplifier does not
have sufficient regenerative capability for the regenerative power generated.
Alarm history is cleared.
Output signal can be forced on/off independently of the servo status.
Use this function for output signal wiring check, etc.
JOG operation positioning operation DO forced output.
However, MR Configurator is necessary for positioning operation.
Servo status is output in terms of voltage in real time.
Using a personal computer, parameter setting, test operation, status display,
etc. can be performed.

(3) Others
When using heat generating equipment such as the regenerative option, install them with full consideration
of heat generation so that the servo amplifier is not affected.
Install the servo amplifier on a perpendicular wall in the correct vertical direction.
2.2 Keep out foreign materials
(1) When installing the unit in a control box, prevent drill chips and wire fragments from entering the servo
amplifier.
(2) Prevent oil, water, metallic dust, etc. from entering the servo amplifier through openings in the control box or
a cooling fan installed on the ceiling.
(3) When installing the control box in a place where there are much toxic gas, dirt and dust, conduct an air
purge (force clean air into the control box from outside to make the internal pressure higher than the
external pressure) to prevent such materials from entering the control box.
2.3 Cable stress
(1) The way of clamping the cable must be fully examined so that flexing stress and cable's own weight stress
are not applied to the cable connection.
(2) For use in any application where the servo motor moves, fix the cables (encoder, power supply, brake) with
having some slack from the connector connection part of the servo motor to avoid putting stress on the
connector connection part. Use the optional encoder cable within the flexing life range. Use the power
supply and brake wiring cables within the flexing life of the cables.

2- 3

2. INSTALLATION

(3) Avoid any probability that the cable sheath might be cut by sharp chips, rubbed by a machine corner or
stamped by workers or vehicles.
(4) For installation on a machine where the servo motor will move, the flexing radius should be made as large
as possible. Refer to section 10.4 for the flexing life.
2.4 SSCNET

cable laying

SSCNET cable is made from optical fiber. If optical fiber is added a power such as a major shock, lateral
pressure, haul, sudden bending or twist, its inside distorts or breaks, and optical transmission will not be
available. Especially, as optical fiber for MR-J3BUS M MR-J3BUS M-A is made of synthetic resin, it
melts down if being left near the fire or high temperature. Therefore, do not make it touched the part, which
becomes high temperature, such as radiator or regenerative option of servo amplifier.
Read described item of this section carefully and handle it with caution.
(1) Minimum bend radius
Make sure to lay the cable with greater radius than the minimum bend radius. Do not press the cable to
edges of equipment or others. For SSCNET cable, the appropriate length should be selected with due
consideration for the dimensions and arrangement of servo amplifier. When closing the door of control box,
pay careful attention for avoiding the case that SSCNET cable is hold down by the door and the cable
bend becomes smaller than the minimum bend radius.
For the minimum bend radius, refer to section 11.1.5.
(2) Prohibition of vinyl tape use
Migrating plasticizer is used for vinyl tape. Keep the MR-J3BUS M, and MR-J3BUS
from vinyl tape because the optical characteristic may be affected.

: Phthalate ester plasticizer such as DBP and DOP
may affect optical characteristic of cable.
: Cable is not affected by plasticizer.

(3) Precautions for migrating plasticizer added materials
Generally, soft polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene resin (PE) and Teflon (fluorine resin) contain nonmigrating plasticizer and they do not affect the optical characteristic of SSCNET cable.
However, some wire sheaths and cable ties, which contain migrating plasticizer (phthalate ester), may
affect MR-J3BUS M and MR-J3BUS M-A cables.
In addition, MR-J3BUS M-B cable is not affected by plasticizer.

2- 4

2. INSTALLATION

(4) Bundle fixing
Fix the cable at the closest part to the connector with bundle material in order to prevent SSCNET cable
from putting its own weight on CN1A CN1B connector of servo amplifier. Optical cord should be given
loose slack to avoid from becoming smaller than the minimum bend radius, and it should not be twisted.
When bundling the cable, fix and hold it in position by using cushioning such as sponge or rubber which
does not contain migratable plasticizers.
If using adhesive tape for bundling the cable, fire resistant acetate cloth adhesive tape 570F (Teraoka
Seisakusho Co., Ltd) is recommended.

Recommended product:

(5) Tension
If tension is added on optical cable, the increase of transmission loss occurs because of external force
which concentrates on the fixing part of optical fiber or the connecting part of optical connector. At worst,
the breakage of optical fiber or damage of optical connector may occur. For cable laying, handle without
putting forced tension. For the tension strength, refer to section 11.1.5.
(6) Lateral pressure
If lateral pressure is added on optical cable, the optical cable itself distorts, internal optical fiber gets
stressed, and then transmission loss will increase. At worst, the breakage of optical cable may occur. As
the same condition also occurs at cable laying, do not tighten up optical cable with a thing such as nylon
band (TY-RAP).
Do not trample it down or tuck it down with the door of control box or others.
(7) Twisting
If optical fiber is twisted, it will become the same stress added condition as when local lateral pressure or
bend is added. Consequently, transmission loss increases, and the breakage of optical fiber may occur at
worst.
(8) Disposal
When incinerating optical cable (cord) used for SSCNET , hydrogen fluoride gas or hydrogen chloride gas
which is corrosive and harmful may be generated. For disposal of optical fiber, request for specialized
industrial waste disposal services who has incineration facility for disposing hydrogen fluoride gas or
hydrogen chloride gas.

2.5 Inspection items

WARNING

Before starting maintenance and/or inspection, turn off the power and wait for 15
minutes or more until the charge lamp turns off. Then, confirm that the voltage
between P( ) and N( ) is safe with a voltage tester and others. Otherwise, an
electric shock may occur. In addition, always confirm from the front of the servo
amplifier whether the charge lamp is off or not.
Any person who is involved in inspection should be fully competent to do the work.
Otherwise, you may get an electric shock. For repair and parts replacement,
contact your safes representative.
POINT
Do not test the servo amplifier with a megger (measure insulation resistance),
or it may become faulty.
Do not disassemble and/or repair the equipment on customer side.

It is recommended to make the following checks periodically.
(1) Check for loose terminal block screws. Retighten any loose screws.
(2) Check the cables and the like for scratches and cracks. Perform periodic inspection according to operating
conditions.
2.6 Parts having service lives
The following parts must be changed periodically as listed below. If any part is found faulty, it must be changed
immediately even when it has not yet reached the end of its life, which depends on the operating method and
environmental conditions. For parts replacement, please contact your sales representative.

on ambient temperature and operating conditions. The capacitor will reach the end of its life in 10 years of
continuous operation in normal air-conditioned environment.
(2) Relays
Their contacts will wear due to switching currents and contact faults occur. Relays reach the end of their life
when the cumulative number of power-on and emergency stop times is 100,000, which depends on the
power supply capacity.
(3) Servo amplifier cooling fan
The cooling fan bearings reach the end of their life in 10,000 to 30,000 hours. Normally, therefore, the
cooling fan must be changed in a few years of continuous operation as a guideline.
It must also be changed if unusual noise or vibration is found during inspection.

3. SIGNALS AND WIRING
Any person who is involved in wiring should be fully competent to do the work.

WARNING

Before wiring, turn off the power and wait for 15 minutes or more until the charge
lamp turns off. Then, confirm that the voltage between P( ) and N( ) is safe with
a voltage tester and others. Otherwise, an electric shock may occur. In addition,
always confirm from the front of the servo amplifier whether the charge lamp is off
or not.
Ground the servo amplifier and the servo motor securely.
Do not attempt to wire the servo amplifier and servo motor until they have been
installed. Otherwise, you may get an electric shock.
The cables should not be damaged, stressed excessively, loaded heavily, or
pinched. Otherwise, you may get an electric shock.
Wire the equipment correctly and securely. Otherwise, the servo motor may
operate unexpectedly, resulting in injury.
Connect cables to correct terminals to prevent a burst, fault, etc.
Ensure that polarity ( ,

) is correct. Otherwise, a burst, damage, etc. may occur.

The surge absorbing diode installed to the DC relay designed for control output
should be fitted in the specified direction. Otherwise, the signal is not output due to
a fault, disabling the forced stop (EM1) and other protective circuits.

3. SIGNALS AND WIRING

3.1 Input power supply circuit
Always connect a magnetic contactor (MC) between the main circuit power supply
and L1, L2, and L3 of the servo amplifier, and configure the wiring to be able to shut
down the power supply on the side of the servo amplifier’s power supply. If a
magnetic contactor (MC) is not connected, continuous flow of a large current may
cause a fire when the servo amplifier malfunctions.

CAUTION

Use the trouble signal to switch main circuit power supply off. Otherwise, a
regenerative transistor fault or the like may overheat the regenerative resistor,
causing a fire.
POINT
Even if alarm has occurred, do not switch off the control circuit power supply.
When the control circuit power supply has been switched off, optical module
does not operate, and optical transmission of SSCNET communication is
interrupted. Therefore, the servo amplifier on the rear axis displays "AA" at
the indicator and turns into base circuit shut-off. The servo amplifier stops
with starting dynamic brake.
Wire the power supply/main circuit as shown below so that power is shut off and the servo-on command turned
off as soon as an alarm occurs, a servo forced stop is made valid, or a controller forced stop is made valid. A
no-fuse breaker (NFB) must be used with the input cables of the main circuit power supply.

3.3.2 Power-on sequence
(1) Power-on procedure
1) Always wire the power supply as shown in above section 3.1 using the magnetic contactor with the main
circuit power supply (three-phase: L1, L2, L3, single-phase: L1, L2). Configure up an external sequence
to switch off the magnetic contactor as soon as an alarm occurs.
2) Switch on the control circuit power supply L11, L21 simultaneously with the main circuit power supply or
before switching on the main circuit power supply. If the main circuit power supply is not on, the display
shows the corresponding warning. However, by switching on the main circuit power supply, the warning
disappears and the servo amplifier will operate properly.
3) The servo amplifier can accept the servo-on command within 3s the main circuit power supply is
switched on. (Refer to paragraph (2) of this section.)

CAUTION

Install an forced stop circuit externally to ensure that operation can be stopped and
power shut off immediately.

If the controller does not have an forced stop function, make up a circuit that switches off main circuit power
as soon as EM1 is turned off at a forced stop. When EM1 is turned off, the dynamic brake is operated to
stop the servo motor. At this time, the display shows the servo forced stop warning (E6).
During ordinary operation, do not use forced stop (EM1) to alternate stop and run. The service life of the
servo amplifier may be shortened.

(4) How to insert the cable into Phoenix Contact connector
POINT
Do not use a precision driver because the cable cannot be tightened with
enough torque.
Insertion of cables into Phoenix Contact connector PC4/6-STF-7.62-CRWH or PC4/3-STF-7.62-CRWH is
shown as follows.
Before inserting the cable into the opening, make sure that the screw of the terminal is fully loose. Insert the
core of the cable into the opening and tighten the screw with a flat-blade screwdriver. When the cable is not
tightened enough to the connector, the cable or connector may generate heat because of the poor contact.
(When using a cable of 1.5mm2 or less, two cables may be inserted into one opening.)
Secure the connector to the servo amplifier by tightening the connector screw.
For securing the cable and the connector, use a flat-blade driver with 0.6mm blade edge thickness and
3.5mm diameter (Recommended flat-blade screwdriver: Phoenix Contact SZS 0.6 3.5). Apply 0.5 to 0.6

Before installing a battery, turn off the main circuit power while keeping the control
circuit power on. Wait for 15 minutes or more (20 minutes or for drive unit 30kW or
more) until the charge lamp turns off. Then, confirm that the voltage between P( )
and N( ) (L and L for drive unit 30kW or more) is safe with a voltage tester and
others. Otherwise, an electric shock may occur. In addition, always confirm from the
front of the servo amplifier whether the charge lamp is off or not. Replace the
battery with main circuit power OFF and with control circuit power ON. Replacing
the battery with the control circuit power OFF results in loosing absolute position

The electromagnetic brake is provided for holding purpose and must not be used
for ordinary braking.
Before performing the operation, be sure to confirm that the electromagnetic brake
operates properly.
POINT
Refer to the Servo Motor Instruction Manual (Vol.2) for specifications such as
the power supply capacity and operation delay time of the electromagnetic
brake.
Note the following when the servo motor with an electromagnetic brake is used.
1) Do not share the 24VDC interface power supply between the interface and electromagnetic brake.
Always use the power supply designed exclusively for the electromagnetic brake.
2) The brake will operate when the power (24VDC) switches off.
3) Switch off the servo-on command after the servo motor has stopped.

The servo amplifier switches the power transistor on-off to supply power to the servo motor. Depending on the
wiring and ground cable routing, the servo amplifier may be affected by the switching noise (due to di/dt and
dv/dt) of the transistor. To prevent such a fault, refer to the following diagram and always ground.

6.1.2 Adjustment using MR Configurator
This section gives the functions and adjustment that may be performed by using the servo amplifier with the
MR Configurator which operates on a personal computer.
Function

Description

Adjustment

Machine analyzer

With the machine and servo motor coupled,
the characteristic of the mechanical system
can be measured by giving a random
vibration command from the personal
computer to the servo and measuring the
machine response.

You can grasp the machine resonance frequency and
determine the notch frequency of the machine resonance
suppression filter.
You can automatically set the optimum gains in response to
the machine characteristic. This simple adjustment is
suitable for a machine which has large machine resonance
and does not require much settling time.

Gain search

Executing gain search under to-and-fro
positioning command measures settling
characteristic while simultaneously
changing gains, and automatically searches
for gains which make settling time shortest.

You can automatically set gains which make positioning
settling time shortest.

Machine simulation

Response at positioning settling of a
machine can be simulated from machine
analyzer results on personal computer.

You can optimize gain adjustment and command pattern on
personal computer.

6. GENERAL GAIN ADJUSTMENT

6.2 Auto tuning
6.2.1 Auto tuning mode
The servo amplifier has a real-time auto tuning function which estimates the machine characteristic (load inertia
moment ratio) in real time and automatically sets the optimum gains according to that value. This function
permits ease of gain adjustment of the servo amplifier.
(1) Auto tuning mode 1
The servo amplifier is factory-set to the auto tuning mode 1.
In this mode, the load inertia moment ratio of a machine is always estimated to set the optimum gains
automatically.
The following parameters are automatically adjusted in the auto tuning mode 1.
Parameter No.

POINT
The auto tuning mode 1 may not be performed properly if the following
conditions are not satisfied.
Time to reach 2000r/min is the acceleration/deceleration time constant of 5s or
less.
Speed is 150r/min or higher.
The ratio of load inertia moment to servo motor inertia moment is 100 times or
less.
The acceleration/deceleration torque is 10% or more of the rated torque.
Under operating conditions which will impose sudden disturbance torque
during acceleration/deceleration or on a machine which is extremely loose,
auto tuning may not function properly, either. In such cases, use the auto
tuning mode 2 or manual mode to make gain adjustment.
(2) Auto tuning mode 2
Use the auto tuning mode 2 when proper gain adjustment cannot be made by auto tuning mode 1. Since
the load inertia moment ratio is not estimated in this mode, set the value of a correct load inertia moment
ratio (parameter No.PB06).
The following parameters are automatically adjusted in the auto tuning mode 2.

When a servo motor is accelerated/decelerated, the load inertia moment ratio estimation section always
estimates the load inertia moment ratio from the current and speed of the servo motor. The results of estimation
are written to parameter No.PB06 (the ratio of load inertia moment to servo motor). These results can be
confirmed on the status display screen of the MR Configurator.
If the value of the load inertia moment ratio is already known or if estimation cannot be made properly, chose
the "auto tuning mode 2" (parameter No.PA08: 0002) to stop the estimation of the load inertia moment ratio
(Switch in above diagram turned off), and set the load inertia moment ratio (parameter No.34) manually.
From the preset load inertia moment ratio (parameter No.PB06) value and response level (parameter
No.PA09), the optimum loop gains are automatically set on the basis of the internal gain tale.
The auto tuning results are saved in the EEP-ROM of the servo amplifier every 60 minutes since power-on. At
power-on, auto tuning is performed with the value of each loop gain saved in the EEP-ROM being used as an
initial value.
POINT
If sudden disturbance torque is imposed during operation, the estimation of
the inertia moment ratio may malfunction temporarily. In such a case, choose
the "auto tuning mode 2" (parameter No.PA08: 0002) and set the correct load
inertia moment ratio in parameter No.PB06.
When any of the auto tuning mode 1 and auto tuning mode settings is
changed to the manual mode 2 setting, the current loop gains and load inertia
moment ratio estimation value are saved in the EEP-ROM.

6.2.3 Adjustment procedure by auto tuning
Since auto tuning is made valid before shipment from the factory, simply running the servo motor automatically
sets the optimum gains that match the machine. Merely changing the response level setting value as required
completes the adjustment. The adjustment procedure is as follows.

6.2.4 Response level setting in auto tuning mode
Set the response (The first digit of parameter No.PA09) of the whole servo system. As the response level
setting is increased, the track ability and settling time for a command decreases, but a too high response level
will generate vibration. Hence, make setting until desired response is obtained within the vibration-free range.
If the response level setting cannot be increased up to the desired response because of machine resonance
beyond 100Hz, filter tuning mode (parameter No.PB01) or machine resonance suppression filter (parameter
No.PB13 to PB16) may be used to suppress machine resonance. Suppressing machine resonance may allow
the response level setting to increase. Refer to section 7.3 for filter tuning mode and machine resonance
suppression filter.

7. SPECIAL ADJUSTMENT FUNCTIONS
POINT
The functions given in this chapter need not be used generally. Use them if
you are not satisfied with the machine status after making adjustment in the
methods in chapter 7.
If a mechanical system has a natural resonance point, increasing the servo system response level may cause
the mechanical system to produce resonance (vibration or unusual noise) at that resonance frequency.
Using the machine resonance suppression filter and adaptive tuning can suppress the resonance of the
mechanical system.

7.2 Adaptive filter
(1) Function
Adaptive filter (adaptive tuning) is a function in which the servo amplifier detects machine vibration for a
predetermined period of time and sets the filter characteristics automatically to suppress mechanical system
vibration. Since the filter characteristics (frequency, depth) are set automatically, you need not be conscious
of the resonance frequency of a mechanical system.

POINT
The machine resonance frequency which adaptive tuning mode can respond
to is about 100 to 2.25kHz. Adaptive vibration suppression control has no
effect on the resonance frequency outside this range.
Adaptive vibration suppression control may provide no effect on a mechanical
system which has complex resonance characteristics.

Factor
The response has increased to the

7. SPECIAL ADJUSTMENT FUNCTIONS

POINT
"Filter OFF" enables a return to the factory-set initial value.
When adaptive tuning is executed, vibration sound increases as an excitation
signal is forcibly applied for several seconds.
When adaptive tuning is executed, machine resonance is detected for a
maximum of 10 seconds and a filter is generated. After filter generation, the
adaptive tuning mode automatically shifts to the manual mode.
Adaptive tuning generates the optimum filter with the currently set control
gains. If vibration occurs when the response setting is increased, execute
adaptive tuning again.
During adaptive tuning, a filter having the best notch depth at the set control
gain is generated. To allow a filter margin against machine resonance,
increase the notch depth in the manual mode.
7.3 Machine resonance suppression filter
(1) Function
The machine resonance suppression filter is a filter function (notch filter) which decreases the gain of the
specific frequency to suppress the resonance of the mechanical system. You can set the gain decreasing
frequency (notch frequency), gain decreasing depth and width.

You can use the machine resonance suppression filter 1 (parameter No.PB13, PB14) and machine

frequencies. Execution of adaptive tuning in the filter tuning mode automatically adjusts the machine
resonance suppression filter. When adaptive tuning is ON, the adaptive tuning mode shifts to the manual
mode after the predetermined period of time. The manual mode enables manual setting using the machine
resonance suppression filter 1.

When you have made adaptive filter tuning mode (parameter No.PB01) "manual mode", set up the
machine resonance suppression filter 1 becomes effective.
POINT
The machine resonance suppression filter is a delay factor for the servo
system. Hence, vibration may increase if you set a wrong resonance
frequency or a too deep notch.
If the frequency of machine resonance is unknown, decrease the notch
frequency from higher to lower ones in order. The optimum notch frequency is
set at the point where vibration is minimal.
A deeper notch has a higher effect on machine resonance suppression but
increases a phase delay and may increase vibration.
A deeper notch has a higher effect on machine resonance suppression but
increases a phase delay and may increase vibration.
The machine characteristic can be grasped beforehand by the machine
analyzer on the MR Configurator. This allows the required notch frequency
and depth to be determined.

When the advanced vibration suppression control (vibration suppression control tuning mode parameter

In the vibration suppression control tuning mode, this mode shifts to the manual mode after operation is
performed the predetermined number of times. The manual mode enables manual setting using the

POINT
The function is made valid when the auto tuning mode (parameter No.PA08)
is the auto tuning mode 2 ("0002") or manual mode ("0003").
The machine resonance frequency supported in the vibration suppression
control tuning mode is 1.0Hz to 100.0Hz. The function is not effective for
vibration outside this range.
Stop the motor before changing the vibration suppression control-related
parameters (parameter No.PB02, PB19, PB20, PB33, PB34). A failure to do
so will cause a shock.
For positioning operation during execution of vibration suppression control
tuning, provide a stop time to ensure a stop after full vibration damping.
Vibration suppression control tuning may not make normal estimation if the
residual vibration at the motor end is small.
Vibration suppression control tuning sets the optimum parameter with the
currently set control gains. When the response setting is increased, set
vibration suppression control tuning again.

This function is used when.
(1) You want to increase the gains during servo lock but decrease the gains to reduce noise during rotation.
(2) You want to increase the gains during settling to shorten the stop settling time.
(3) You want to change the gains using an input device to ensure stability of the servo system since the load

8.2 Remedies for alarms
When any alarm has occurred, eliminate its cause, ensure safety, then reset the
alarm, and restart operation. Otherwise, injury may occur.

CAUTION

If an absolute position erase (25) occurred, always make home position setting
again. Not doing so may cause unexpected operation.
As soon as an alarm occurs, mark Servo-off and power off the main circuit and
control circuit.
POINT
When any of the following alarms has occurred, do not deactivate the alarm
and resume operation repeatedly. To do so will cause the servo amplifier/servo
motor to fail. Remove the cause of occurrence, and leave a cooling time of
more than 30 minutes before resuming operation. To protect the main circuit
elements, any of these servo alarms cannot be deactivated from the servo
system controller until the specified time elapses after its occurrence. Judging
the load changing condition until the alarm occurs, the servo amplifier
calculates this specified time automatically.
Regenerative error (30)
Overload 1 (50)
Overload 2 (51)
The alarm can be deactivated by switching power off, then on or by the error
reset command CPU reset from the servo system controller. For details, refer
to section 8.1.

When an alarm occurs, the trouble (ALM) switches off and the dynamic brake is operated to stop the servo
motor. At this time, the display indicates the alarm No.
The servo motor comes to a stop. Remove the cause of the alarm in accordance with this section. Use the MR
Configurator to refer to a factor of alarm occurrence.

Note. At power-on, "888" appears instantaneously, but it is not an error.

8.3 Remedies for warnings

CAUTION

If an absolute position counter warning (E3) occurred, always make home position
setting again. Not doing so may cause unexpected operation.
POINT
When any of the following alarms has occurred, do not resume operation by
switching power of the servo amplifier OFF/ON repeatedly. The servo amplifier
and servo motor may become faulty. If the power of the servo amplifier is
switched OFF/ON during the alarms, allow more than 30 minutes for cooling
before resuming operation.
Excessive regenerative warning (E0)
Overload warning 1 (E1)

If E6, E7 or E9 occurs, the servo off status is established. If any other warning occurs, operation can be
continued but an alarm may take place or proper operation may not be performed.
Remove the cause of warning according to this section. Use the MR Configurator to refer to a factor of warning
occurrence.

10. CHARACTERISTICS
10.1 Overload protection characteristics
An electronic thermal relay is built in the servo amplifier to protect the servo motor and servo amplifier from
overloads. Overload 1 alarm (50) occurs if overload operation performed is above the electronic thermal relay
protection curve shown in any of Figs 10.1. Overload 2 alarm (51) occurs if the maximum current flew
continuously for several seconds due to machine collision, etc. Use the equipment on the left-hand side area of
the continuous or broken line in the graph.
In a machine like the one for vertical lift application where unbalanced torque will be produced, it is
recommended to use the machine so that the unbalanced torque is 70% or less of the rated torque.
When you carry out adhesion mounting of the servo amplifier, make circumference temperature into 0 to 45 ,
or use it at 75% or smaller effective load ratio.

Note. If operation that generates torque more than 100% of the rating is performed with an abnormally high frequency in a servo motor
stop status (servo lock status) or in a 30r/min or less low-speed operation status, the servo amplifier may fail even when the
electronic thermal relay protection is not activated.

10.2 Power supply equipment capacity and generated loss
(1) Amount of heat generated by the servo amplifier
Table 10.1 indicates servo amplifiers' power supply capacities and losses generated under rated load. For
thermal design of an enclosure, use the values in Table 10.1 in consideration for the worst operating
conditions. The actual amount of generated heat will be intermediate between values at rated torque and
servo off according to the duty used during operation. When the servo motor is run at less than the
maximum speed, the power supply capacity will be smaller than the value in the table, but the servo
amplifier's generated heat will not change.

10. CHARACTERISTICS

(2) Heat dissipation area for enclosed servo amplifier
The enclosed control box (hereafter called the control box) which will contain the servo amplifier should be
designed to ensure that its temperature rise is within 10 at the ambient temperature of 40 . (With a 5
(41 ) safety margin, the system should operate within a maximum 55 (131 ) limit.) The necessary
enclosure heat dissipation area can be calculated by Equation 10.1.

: Heat dissipation area [m ]
: Loss generated in the control box [W]
: Difference between internal and ambient temperatures [ ]
: Heat dissipation coefficient [5 to 6]

When calculating the heat dissipation area with Equation 10.1, assume that P is the sum of all losses
generated in the enclosure. Refer to Table 10.1 for heat generated by the servo amplifier. "A" indicates the
effective area for heat dissipation, but if the enclosure is directly installed on an insulated wall, that extra
amount must be added to the enclosure's surface area.
The required heat dissipation area will vary wit the conditions in the enclosure. If convection in the
enclosure is poor and heat builds up, effective heat dissipation will not be possible. Therefore, arrangement
of the equipment in the enclosure and the use of a cooling fan should be considered.
Table 10.1 lists the enclosure dissipation area for each servo amplifier when the servo amplifier is operated
at the ambient temperature of 40 (104 ) under rated load.

(Inside)

Air flow

Fig. 10.2 Temperature distribution in enclosure
When air flows along the outer wall of the enclosure, effective heat exchange will be possible, because the
temperature slope inside and outside the enclosure will be steeper.

10.3 Dynamic brake characteristics
10.3.1 Dynamic brake operation
(1) Calculation of coasting distance
Fig. 10.3 shows the pattern in which the servo motor comes to a stop when the dynamic brake is operated.
Use Equation 10.2 to calculate an approximate coasting distance to a stop. The dynamic brake time
constant varies with the servo motor and machine operation speeds. (Refer to (2)(a), (b) of this section.)

For 7kW or less servo, there is internal relay delay time of about 30ms. For 11k to 22kW servo,
there is delay time of about 100ms caused by a delay of the external relay and a delay of the
magnetic contactor built in the external dynamic brake.

10.3.2 The dynamic brake at the load inertia moment
Use the dynamic brake under the load inertia moment ratio indicated in the following table. If the load inertia
moment is higher than this value, the built-in dynamic brake may burn. If there is a possibility that the load
inertia moment may exceed the value, contact Mitsubishi.
The values of the load inertia moment ratio in the table are the values at the maximum rotation speed of the
servo motor.

WARNING

Before connecting any option or peripheral equipment, turn off the power and wait
for 15 minutes or more until the charge lamp turns off. Then, confirm that the
voltage between P( ) and N( ) is safe with a voltage tester and others.
Otherwise, an electric shock may occur. In addition, always confirm from the front
of the servo amplifier whether the charge lamp is off or not.

CAUTION

Use the specified auxiliary equipment and options. Unspecified ones may lead to a
fault or fire.

11.1 Cable/connector sets
POINT
Protective structure indicated for cables and connecters is for a cable or
connector alone. When the cables and connectors are used to connect the
servo amplifier and servo motor, and if protective structures of the servo
amplifier and servo motor are lower than that of the cable and connector,
specifications of the servo amplifier and servo motor apply.
As the cables and connectors used with this servo, purchase the options indicated in this section.

MR-RB34-4 MR-RB54-4 is used, a cooling fan is required to cool it.
The cooling fan should be prepared by the customer.
For the sizes of wires used for wiring, refer to section 11.11.
The regenerative option will cause a temperature rise of 100 relative to the ambient temperature. Fully
examine heat dissipation, installation position, used cables, etc. before installing the option. For wiring, use
flame-resistant wires and keep them clear of the regenerative option body. Always use twisted cables of
max. 5m length for connection with the servo amplifier.

(c) MR-J3-11KB(4) to MR-J3-22KB(4) (when using the supplied regenerative resistor)
When using the regenerative resistors supplied to the servo amplifier, the specified number of resistors
(4 or 5 resistors) must be connected in series. If they are connected in parallel or in less than the
specified number, the servo amplifier may become faulty and/or the regenerative resistors burn. Install
the resistors at intervals of about 70mm. Cooling the resistors with two cooling fans (92 92, minimum

Note. The number of resistors connected in series depends on the resistor type. The thermal sensor is not mounted on the
attached regenerative resistor. An abnormal heating of resistor may be generated at a regenerative circuit failure. Install a
thermal sensor near the resistor and establish a protective circuit to shut off the main circuit power supply when abnormal
heating occurs. The detection level of the thermal sensor varies according to the settings of the resistor. Set the thermal
sensor in the most appropriate position on your design basis or use the thermal sensor built-in regenerative option (MRRB5E, 9P, 9F, 6B-4, 60-4 and 6K-4) provided by Mitsubishi Electric Corporation.

11.3 FR-BU2-(H) Brake unit
POINT
Use a 200V class brake unit and a resistor unit with a 200V class servo
amplifier, and a 400V class brake unit and a resistor unit with a 400V class
servo amplifier. Combination of different voltage class units and servo
amplifier cannot be used.
Install a brake unit and a resistor unit on a flat surface vertically. When the
unit is installed horizontally or diagonally, the heat dissipation effect
diminishes.
Temperature of the resistor unit case rises to higher than 100 . Keep cables
and flammable materials away from the case.
Ambient temperature condition of the brake unit is between 10 (14 ) and
50 (122 ). Note that the condition is different from the ambient
temperature condition of the servo amplifier (between 0 (32 ) and 55
(131 )).
Configure the circuit to shut down the power-supply with the alarm output of
the brake unit and resistor unit under abnormal condition.
Use the brake unit with a combination indicated in section 11.3.1.
For executing a continuous regenerative operation, use FR-RC-(H) power
regeneration converter or FR-CV-(H) power regeneration common converter.
Brake unit and regenerative options (Regenerative resistor) cannot be used
simultaneously.
Connect the brake unit to the bus of the servo amplifier. As compared to the MR-RB regenerative option, the
brake unit can return larger power. Use the brake unit when the regenerative option cannot provide sufficient
regenerative capability.
When using the brake unit, set the parameter No.PA02 of the servo amplifier to "
01".
When using the brake unit, always refer to the FR-BU2-(H) Brake Unit Instruction Manual.

(3) Precautions for wiring
The cables between the servo amplifier and the brake unit, and between the resistor unit and the brake unit
should be as short as possible. Always twist the cable longer than 5m (twist five times or more per one
meter). Even when the cable is twisted, the cable should be less than 10m. Using cables longer than 5m
without twisting or twisted cables longer than 10m, may result in the brake unit malfunction.

(5) Other precautions
(a) Always use the FR-CVL-(H) as the power factor improving reactor. Do not use the FR-BAL or FR-BEL.
(b) The inputs/outputs (main circuits) of the FR-CV-(H) and servo amplifiers include high-frequency
components and may provide electromagnetic wave interference to communication equipment (such as
AM radios) used near them. In this case, interference can be reduced by installing the radio noise filter
(FR-BIF-(H)) or line noise filter (FR-BSF01, FR-BLF).
(c) The overall wiring length for connection of the DC power supply between the FR-CV-(H) and servo
amplifiers should be 5m or less, and the wiring must be twisted.

11.6 External dynamic brake
POINT
Configure up a sequence which switches off the contact of the brake unit after
(or as soon as) it has turned off the servo on signal at a power failure or
failure.
For the braking time taken when the dynamic brake is operated, refer to
section 10.3.
The brake unit is rated for a short duration. Do not use it for high duty.
When using the 400V class dynamic brake, the power supply voltage is
restricted to 1-phase 380VAC to 463VAC (50Hz/60Hz).
(1) Selection of dynamic brake
The dynamic brake is designed to bring the servo motor to a sudden stop when a power failure occurs
or the protective circuit is activated, and is built in the 7kW or less servo amplifier. Since it is not built
in the 11kW or more servo amplifier, purchase it separately if required. Assign the dynamic brake interlock
(DB) to any of CN3-9, CN3-13, and CN3-15 pins in parameter No.PD07 to PD09.

11.9 Battery MR-J3BAT
POINT
The revision (Edition 44) of the Dangerous Goods Rule of the International Air
Transport Association (IATA) went into effect on January 1, 2003 and was
enforced immediately. In this rule, "provisions of the lithium and lithium ion
batteries" were revised to tighten the restrictions on the air transportation of
batteries. However, since this battery is non-dangerous goods (non-Class 9),
air transportation of 24 or less batteries is outside the range of the
restrictions. Air transportation of more than 24 batteries requires packing
compliant with the Packing Standard 903. When a self-certificate is necessary
for battery safety tests, contact our branch or representative. For more
information, consult our branch or representative. (As of Jun, 2008).
(1) Purpose of use for MR-J3BAT
This battery is used to construct an absolute position detection system. Refer to section 12.3 for the fitting
method, etc.

(2) Year and month when MR-J3BAT is manufactured
The year and month when MR-J3BAT is manufactured are written down in Serial No. on the rating plate of
the battery back face.
The year and month of manufacture are indicated by the last one digit of the year and 1 to 9, X(10), Y(11),

11.10 Heat sink outside mounting attachment (MR-J3ACN)
Use the heat sink outside mounting attachment to mount the heat generation area of the servo amplifier in the
outside of the control box to dissipate servo amplifier-generated heat to the outside of the box and reduce the
amount of heat generated in the box, thereby allowing a compact control box to be designed.
In the control box, machine a hole having the panel cut dimensions, fit the heat sink outside mounting
attachment to the servo amplifier with the fitting screws (4 screws supplied), and install the servo amplifier to
the control box.
The environment outside the control box when using the heat sink outside mounting attachment should be
within the range of the servo amplifier operating environment conditions.
The heat sink outside mounting attachment of MR-J3ACN can be used for MR-J3-11KB(4) to MR-J3-22KB(4).

11.13 Power factor improving DC reactor
POINT
For the 100V power supply type (MR-J3- B1), the power factor improving DC
reactor cannot be used.
The power factor improving DC reactor increases the form factor of the servo amplifier's input current to
improve the power factor. It can decrease the power supply capacity. As compared to the power factor
improving AC reactor (FR-BAL), it can decrease the loss. The input power factor is improved to about 95%.
It is also effective to reduce the input side harmonics.
When connecting the power factor improving DC reactor to the servo amplifier, always disconnect P1 and P2
(For 11kW or more, disconnect P1 and P). If it remains connected, the effect of the power factor improving DC
reactor is not produced.
When used, the power factor improving DC reactor generates heat. To release heat, therefore, leave a 10cm or
more clearance at each of the top and bottom, and a 5cm or more clearance on each side.

11.14 Power factor improving AC reactors
The power factor improving AC reactors improve the phase factor by increasing the form factor of servo
amplifier's input current.
It can reduce the power capacity.
The input power factor is improved to be about 90%. For use with a 1-phase power supply, it may be slightly
lower than 90%.
In addition, it reduces the higher harmonic of input side.
When using power factor improving reactors for two servo amplifiers or more, be sure to connect a power factor
improving reactor to each servo amplifier.
If using only one power factor improving reactor, enough improvement effect of phase factor cannot be
obtained unless all servo amplifiers are operated.

11.17 Noise reduction techniques
Noises are classified into external noises which enter the servo amplifier to cause it to malfunction and those
radiated by the servo amplifier to cause peripheral devices to malfunction. Since the servo amplifier is an
electronic device which handles small signals, the following general noise reduction techniques are required.
Also, the servo amplifier can be a source of noise as its outputs are chopped by high carrier frequencies. If
peripheral devices malfunction due to noises produced by the servo amplifier, noise suppression measures
must be taken. The measures will vary slightly with the routes of noise transmission.
(1) Noise reduction techniques
(a) General reduction techniques
Avoid laying power lines (input and output cables) and signal cables side by side or do not bundle
them together. Separate power lines from signal cables.
Use shielded, twisted pair cables for connection with the encoder and for control signal transmission,
and connect the shield to the SD terminal.
Ground the servo amplifier, servo motor, etc. together at one point (refer to section 3.12).
(b) Reduction techniques for external noises that cause the servo amplifier to malfunction
If there are noise sources (such as a magnetic contactor, an electromagnetic brake, and many relays
which make a large amount of noise) near the servo amplifier and the servo amplifier may malfunction,
the following countermeasures are required.
Provide surge absorbers on the noise sources to suppress noises.
Attach data line filters to the signal cables.
Ground the shields of the encoder connecting cable and the control signal cables with cable clamp
fittings.
Although a surge absorber is built into the servo amplifier, to protect the servo amplifier and other
equipment against large exogenous noise and lightning surge, attaching a varistor to the power input
section of the equipment is recommended.

11. OPTIONS AND AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT

(c) Techniques for noises radiated by the servo amplifier that cause peripheral devices to malfunction
Noises produced by the servo amplifier are classified into those radiated from the cables connected to
the servo amplifier and its main circuits (input and output circuits), those induced electromagnetically or
statically by the signal cables of the peripheral devices located near the main circuit cables, and those
transmitted through the power supply cables.

Suppression techniques

1) 2) 3)

When measuring instruments, receivers, sensors, etc. which handle weak signals and may malfunction
due to noise and/or their signal cables are contained in a control box together with the servo amplifier or
run near the servo amplifier, such devices may malfunction due to noises transmitted through the air. The
following techniques are required.
1. Provide maximum clearance between easily affected devices and the servo amplifier.
2. Provide maximum clearance between easily affected signal cables and the I/O cables of the servo
amplifier.
3. Avoid laying the power lines (Input cables of the servo amplifier) and signal cables side by side or
bundling them together.
4. Insert a line noise filter to the I/O cables or a radio noise filter on the input line.
5. Use shielded wires for signal and power cables or put cables in separate metal conduits.

4) 5) 6)

When the power lines and the signal cables are laid side by side or bundled together, magnetic
induction noise and static induction noise will be transmitted through the signal cables and malfunction
may occur. The following techniques are required.
1. Provide maximum clearance between easily affected devices and the servo amplifier.
2. Provide maximum clearance between easily affected signal cables and the I/O cables of the servo
amplifier.
3. Avoid laying the power lines (I/O cables of the servo amplifier) and signal cables side by side or
bundling them together.
4. Use shielded wires for signal and power cables or put the cables in separate metal conduits.

7)

When the power supply of peripheral devices is connected to the power supply of the servo amplifier
system, noises produced by the servo amplifier may be transmitted back through the power supply
cable and the devices may malfunction. The following techniques are required.
1. Insert the radio noise filter (FR-BIF-(H)) on the power cables (Input cables) of the servo amplifier.
2. Insert the line noise filter (FR-BSF01 FR-BLF) on the power cables of the servo amplifier.

8)

When the cables of peripheral devices are connected to the servo amplifier to make a closed loop
circuit, leakage current may flow to malfunction the peripheral devices. If so, malfunction may be
prevented by disconnecting the grounding cable of the peripheral device.

(2) Noise reduction products
(a) Data line filter (Recommended)
Noise can be prevented by installing a data line filter onto the encoder cable, etc. For example, the
ZCAT3035-1330 of TDK and the ESD-SR-25 of NEC TOKIN make are available as data line filters. As a
reference example, the impedance specifications of the ZCAT3035-1330 (TDK) are indicated below.

(c) Cable clamp fitting AERSBAN - SET
Generally, the earth of the shielded cable may only be connected to the connector's SD terminal.
However, the effect can be increased by directly connecting the cable to an earth plate as shown below.
Install the earth plate near the servo amplifier for the encoder cable. Peel part of the cable sheath to
expose the external conductor, and press that part against the earth plate with the cable clamp. If the
cable is thin, clamp several cables in a bunch.
The clamp comes as a set with the earth plate.

(d) Line noise filter (FR-BSF01, FR-BLF)
This filter is effective in suppressing noises radiated from the power supply side and output side of the
servo amplifier and also in suppressing high-frequency leakage current (zero-phase current) especially
within 0.5MHz to 5MHz band.
Connection diagram

Outline drawing [Unit: mm]

Use the line noise filters for wires of the main power supply (L1 L2
L3) and of the motor power supply (U V W). Pass each of the
3-phase wires through the line noise filter an equal number of
times in the same direction. For the main power supply, the effect
of the filter rises as the number of passes increases, but generally
four passes would be appropriate. For the motor power supply,
passes must be four times or less. Do not pass the grounding
(earth) wire through the filter, or the effect of the filter will drop.
Wind the wires by passing through the filter to satisfy the required
number of passes as shown in Example 1. If the wires are too
thick to wind, use two or more filters to have the required number
of passes as shown in Example 2. Place the line noise filters as
close to the servo amplifier as possible for their best performance.

12. ABSOLUTE POSITION DETECTION SYSTEM
12. ABSOLUTE POSITION DETECTION SYSTEM
If an absolute position erase alarm (25) or absolute position counter warning (E3)
has occurred, always perform home position setting again. Not doing so can cause
runaway. Not doing so may cause unexpected operation.

CAUTION

POINT
If the encoder cable is disconnected, absolute position data will be lost in the
following servo motor series. HF-MP, HF-KP, HC-SP, HC-RP, HC-UP, HC-LP,
and HA-LP. After disconnecting the encoder cable, always execute home
position setting and then positioning operation.
12.1 Features
For normal operation, as shown below, the encoder consists of a detector designed to detect a position within
one revolution and a cumulative revolution counter designed to detect the number of revolutions.
The absolute position detection system always detects the absolute position of the machine and keeps it
battery-backed, independently of whether the servo system controller power is on or off.
Therefore, once home position return is made at the time of machine installation, home position return is not
needed when power is switched on thereafter.
If a power failure or a fault occurs, restoration is easy.

12.3 Battery installation procedure

WARNING

Before installing a battery, turn off the main circuit power while keeping the control
circuit power on. Wait for 15 minutes or more (20 minutes or for drive unit 30kW or
more) until the charge lamp turns off. Then, confirm that the voltage between P( )
and N( ) (L and L for drive unit 30kW or more) is safe with a voltage tester
and others. Otherwise, an electric shock may occur. In addition, always confirm
from the front of the servo amplifier whether the charge lamp is off or not.
POINT
The internal circuits of the servo amplifier may be damaged by static electricity.
Always take the following precautions.
Ground human body and work bench.
Do not touch the conductive areas, such as connector pins and electrical parts,
directly by hand.
Before starting battery changing procedure, make sure that the main circuit
power is switched OFF with the control circuit power ON. When battery is
changed with the control power OFF, the absolute position data is lost.

(1) For MR-J3-350B or less MR-J3-200B4 or less
POINT
For the servo amplifier with a battery holder on the bottom, it is not possible to
wire for the earth with the battery installed. Insert the battery after executing
the earth wiring of the servo amplifier.

Note. Stepdown transformer is required when coil voltage of the magnetic contactor is 200V class, and the converter unit and the drive
unit are 400V class.

When the converter unit receives a start command from the drive unit while the magnetic contactor control
connector (CNP1) is connected to the magnetic contactor (refer to section 13.3.2 (1)), CNP1-2 and L21
conduct in the converter unit. Then the control circuit power is supplied to turn ON the magnetic contactor
and the main circuit power is supplied to the converter unit.
Either when an alarm occurs on the converter unit or the drive unit while the control function of the magnetic
contactor is enabled, or when the forced stop (EM1) of the converter unit or the drive unit is turned OFF, the
switch between CNP1-2 and L21 in the converter unit is disconnected and the main circuit power supply is

Operation time [s]

Operation time [s]

An electronic thermal relay is built in the converter unit and drive unit to protect the servo motor, converter unit
and drive unit from overloads.
Overload 1 alarm (50) occurs if overload operation performed is above the electronic thermal relay protection
curve shown below. Overload 2 alarm (51) occurs if the maximum current flew continuously for several
seconds due to machine collision, etc. Use the equipment on the left-hand side area of the continuous or
broken line in the graph.
It is recommended to use the machine which generates unbalanced torque, e.g. a vertical lift application, so
that the unbalanced torque is not more than 70% of the rated torque.

thermal relay protection is not activated.

13. SERVO AMPLIFIERS WITH A LARGE CAPACITY (30k TO 55kW)

13.8.2 Power supply equipment capacity and generated loss
POINT
The calculation method of heat dissipation area for enclosed control panel is
the same as that for servo amplifiers with 22kW or less. Refer to section 10.2
(2).
Table 13.1 indicates the generated loss and power supply capacity under rated load per combination of the
converter unit and drive unit. When the servo motors is run at less than the maximum speed, the power supply
equipment capacity is lower than the value in the table but the heat generated does not change.
Since the servo motor requires 2 to 2.5 times greater instantaneous power for acceleration, use the power
supply which ensures that the voltage lies within the permissible voltage fluctuation at the main circuit power
supply terminals (L1, L2, L3) of the converter unit. The power supply equipment capacity changes with the power
supply impedance.
The actually generated heat falls within the ranges at rated torque and at zero torque according to the
frequencies of use during operation. When designing an enclosed control box, use the values in the table,
considering the worst operating conditions. The generated heat in Table 13.1 does not include heat produced
during regeneration.

Configure up a sequence which switches off the contact of the brake unit after
(or as soon as) it has turned off the servo on (signal) at a power failure or
failure.
For the braking time taken when the dynamic brake is operated, refer to
section 13.8.3.
The brake unit is rated for a short duration. Do not use it for high duty.
The specifications of the input power supply for external dynamic brake are
the same as those of the converter unit control circuit power supply.
Operation timing is the same as that for servo amplifiers with 22kW or less.
Refer to section 11.6.
(1) Selection of dynamic brake
The dynamic brake is designed to bring the servo motor to a sudden stop when a power failure occurs or
the protective circuit is activated. When using the external dynamic brake, assign the dynamic brake
interlock (DB) to any of CN3-9, CN3-13, and CN3-15 pins in parameter No.PD07 to PD09.

13.9.7 Line noise filter (FR-BLF)
POINT
This section explains how to use the line noise filter unique to servo amplifiers
with a large capacity. Other noise reduction products are the same as those
for servo amplifiers with 22kW or less. Refer to section 11.17.
This filter is effective in suppressing noises radiated from the power supply side and output side of the
converter unit, drive unit and also in suppressing high-frequency leakage current (zero-phase current)
especially within 0.5MHz to 5MHz band. The filters are used with the converter power supply wires (L1 L2 L3)
and drive unit power wires (U V W).
(1) Usage
Pass the 3-phase wires through four line noise filters. When using the line noise filters with the power wires,
passing the power wires together with the ground wire will reduce the filter effect. Run the ground wire
separately from the power wires.

Use four FR-BLFs.

(1) Selection method
High-frequency chopper currents controlled by pulse width modulation flow in the AC servo circuits.
Leakage currents containing harmonic contents are larger than those of the motor which is run with a
commercial power supply.
Select a leakage current breaker according to the following formula, and ground the drive unit, servo motor,
etc. securely.
Make the input and output cables as short as possible, and also make the grounding cable as long as
possible (about 30cm) to minimize leakage currents.

13.9.10 FR-BU2-(H) Brake Unit
POINT
Use a 200V class brake unit and a resistor unit with a 200V class converter
unit, and a 400V class brake unit and a resistor unit with a 400V class
converter unit. Combination of different voltage class units cannot be used.
Install a brake unit and a resistor unit on a flat surface vertically. When the
unit is installed horizontally or diagonally, the heat dissipation effect
diminishes.
Temperature of the resistor unit case rises to higher than 100 . Keep cables
and flammable materials away from the case.
Ambient temperature condition of the brake unit is between 10 to 50 .
Note that the condition is different from the ambient temperature condition of
the converter unit (between 0 to 55 ).
Configure the circuit to shut down the power-supply with the alarm output of
the brake unit and the resistor unit under abnormal condition.
Use the brake unit with a combination indicated in (1) of this section.
For executing a continuous regenerative operation, use FR-RC-(H) power
regeneration converter or FR-CV-(H) power regeneration common converter.
Connect the brake unit to the bus of the converter unit (L and L of TE2-1) for use. As compared to the MRRB regenerative brake option, the brake unit can return larger power. Use the brake unit when the regenerative
brake option cannot provide sufficient regenerative brake capability.
When using the brake unit, set the parameter No.PA02 of the converter unit to “
01”.
When using the brake unit, always refer to the FR-BU2-(H) Brake Unit Instruction Manual.
(1) Selection
Use a combination of converter unit, brake unit and resistor unit listed below.
