API Controls PS-3303d-E Digital Servo Drive | Encoder/Hall (Feedback device) | 3/6 RMS 90-253VAC 1/3 Phase, 47-63Hz Simple Type: Servo Drive

The PS-33xx Series amplifiers are a new generation of digital servo amplifiers available in current ratings from 3 to 20 amps continuous. The product series includes three product families: the PS-33xxd, a Digital servo drive, the PS- 33xxi, an Intelligent servo drive, and the PS-33xxc Centennial servo drive. Each model of the PS-33xxd/i Series utilize a space vector control algorithm and each model of the PS-33xxc Series are DSP based. All models of the PS- 33xx Series can be configured to operate Brushless DC servomotors in an analog current reference mode or as an analog velocity (speed) controller. The PS-33xxc Centennial Series can also be configured to operate induction motors in either vector or variable frequency control. In addition, the PS-33xxi and PS-33xxc are easily configured as a standalone programmable position controller and interface to the application via extensive inputs/outputs. All modes of operation offer a PID loop-tuning feature to optimize the performance of the selected servomotor. Each PS-33xx Series unit is an amplifier, power supply, controller and heatsink integrated into a single standalone package. The compact size and integrated design of the PS-33xx amplifier simplifies the installation process and reduces downtime should the need for replacement arise. Fundamentally, a PS-33xx amplifier is a computer that is dedicated to motion control. Like every other computer it has its own operating system, data storage capabilities, data manipulation capabilities, and interface for data communications. In addition, its built-in inputs/outputs allow for hard-wired connections for motor feedback and to sensor switches to ensure motion that is “in sync” with a user’s environment. All PS-33xx Series servo controllers provide the user with the same basic components, including: Communications interface to your host computer or T-330 Data Terminal for programming or commanding the PS-33xx servo controller. The T-330 can only be utilized to enter user data or system parameters. The host computer is required to create the high-level motion program. A graphical user interface program, APImate 2.0©, provides the user with the tools to quickly and easily configure the PS-33xx to a specific application. APImate 2.0 is a Windows-based program that provides Wizards for axis setup, tuning, and high level programming. System software including commands, parameters, and user defined variables that allow you to configure the servo controller to your application, to enter and manipulate data, and to tune the performance of the unit to your application. Methods of control include the ability to accept Step/Direction, Step-Up/Down,Quadrature, and Analog mode whereby you are commanding the servo system via an analog ±10 VDC reference in either the current or velocity (speed) mode. Hardware interfaces for enable, reset, drive-ok, foldback and user programmable inputs (travel limits, home) and outputs that allow you to interface to your machinery/equipment.
