Servo Drive Specifications

Model: XML2-0060-45-4/S-A. Power supply: 3-phase or single-phase input. Output power rating: 45W nameplate capacity. Voltage rating: 60? nameplate indicates 60A peak or 60V class. Multiple I/O configuration: 4-channel digital input, 5-channel digital output. Digital inputs: 24V DC logic, optically isolated for PLC and sensor interface. Analog input: 1 channel, 0-10V or ±10V for external torque or speed command from PLC analog output.

BRDE300S 2.5T Motion System

The BRDE300S 2.5T is an integrated motion system compatible with the XML2-0060-45-4/S-A servo drive. Rating: 300W continuous output power. The “2.5T” designation indicates 2.5Nm continuous torque at rated speed, capable of peak torque for short acceleration periods. Speed range: 0-3000 rpm. Power supply: 200V to 230V single-phase AC input. The BRDE300S includes a built-in 2500-line incremental encoder (standard) or optional absolute encoder for position feedback.

Control Modes and Configuration

The Delta Omega XML2-0060-45-4/S-A supports multiple operation modes selectable via the digital inputs or software configuration. Position mode: Accepts step and direction pulse train from PLC output module (open collector or line driver) up to 500kHz. Speed mode: Closed-loop speed command using analog voltage input with internal velocity PI loop. Torque mode: Direct current command for applications requiring adjustable torque such as winding or unwinding stations. Internal speed mode: selectable preset speeds controlled by digital inputs.

PLC Integration Capabilities

The servo drive is designed for easy integration with PLC-based automation systems. Communication: RS-232 and RS-485 serial ports with Modbus RTU protocol support. A PC-based configuration software allows parameter setting, autotuning, and real-time monitor of torque, speed, and position error. The digital I/O includes dedicated signals for servo-on, alarm reset, gain selection, position ready, and zero speed detection. The drive’s outputs provide status such as alarm, running, position settled, and torque limiting, which can be wired directly to PLC digital input cards.

Protection and Diagnostics

The XML2-0060-45-4/S-A includes extensive protection features: Overcurrent detection (instantaneous shutdown), overvoltage on DC bus, undervoltage, overheating on the power module, motor overload (I²t thermal model), encoder disconnection detection, and regenerative energy absorption via internal braking resistor. A 7-segment LED display on the drive shows status codes, operating mode, and fault codes for rapid diagnostic. The drive logs fault history for maintenance analysis.

Acoustics and EMC

Carrier frequency adjustable from 2kHz to 16kHz to balance audible noise and heat dissipation. The drive has a built-in filter to reduce conducted emissions per EN 61800-3 Category C2 for industrial environments. Input AC line reactor is recommended for mains quality improvement when multiple drives are sharing a common AC line.

Physical Dimensions

Servo drive dimensions (XML2-0060-45-4/S-A): Width 45mm, height 150mm, depth 120mm. Mounting: DIN rail or panel screw mounting. Weight: approximately 0.6 kg (drive only). BRDE300S 2.5T motor dimensions: Frame size 60mm square flange, overall length 110mm including encoder. Shaft: 8mm diameter keyed. Weight: 1.2 kg. Cable connection: Military-style circular connectors for motor power and encoder signals, screw terminals for control signals.

Environmental Specifications

Ambient operating temperature: 0°C to 50°C (derate above 40°C). Storage temperature: -20°C to 85°C. Humidity: 20% to 85% RH non-condensing. Protection class: IP20 (open chassis for panel mounting). Altitude: up to 1000m above sea level without derating. Vibration: 0.5G at 10-55Hz. The drive is designed for pollution degree 2 environments inside control cabinets.

Configuration and Autotuning

The drive includes a one-touch autotuning function that measures the connected motor’s inertia and optimizes the PI gains (position, speed, current) accordingly. This is performed with the load connected and reduces the need for manual tuning. The user can store up to 3 gain sets selectable via digital input, allowing different tuning parameters for different load conditions in the same cycle.

Applications

The Delta Omega XML2-0060-45-4/S-A and BRDE300S 2.5T combination is suitable for pick-and-place robotics, handling equipment, conveyor indexing, small CNC routers, laboratory automation, dispensing machines, and rotary indexing tables. The 300W power class covers light-duty positioning tasks requiring compact size and smooth motion.

Conclusion

The Delta Omega XML2-0060-45-4/S-A servo drive with BRDE300S 2.5T motion system provides an integrated solution for precision positioning in PLC-controlled machinery. Its compact size, multiple control modes, and straightforward I/O interface simplify integration while maintaining high performance for demanding motion applications.
