Product Description

AM3542-0030 is an AM3500 series motor from Beckhoff Automation. The delivery package from the manufacturer includes a motor and a package leaflet. The name plate on the motor lists essential information that can help with identification. Salient features of the motor include an 84 millimeter flange for mounting, a single turn encoder with BISS serial interface, and a motor winding rated for 3000 RPM. The motor is designed for three-phase AC input. A servo drive connected to the motor supplies AC power. In addition to providing power, the drive controls motor speed and shaft position. Electronic commutation is employed to switch current between motor windings and ensure continuous motor rotation. Permanent magnets are used for the rotor. Temperature sensors on the windings prevent damage from overheating.

Maximum rated mains voltage for the motor is 480 Volts AC. The standstill torque is 3.3 Nm and the current at standstill is 2.4 Amps. The rated torque is 2.9 Nm and the peak torque is 9.5 Nm. The rated current is 2.3 Amps and the peak current is 10.6 Amps. Moment of inertia of the rotor on the AM3542-0030 motor is 4 kg cm2. The synchronous servo motor is a 10 pole device. Its thermal time constant is 33 minutes. Shipping weight of the unit is 3.8 kilograms. As per manufacturer specifications, the permitted radial load is 406 Nm and the permitted axial load at shaft end is 77 Nm. Trained specialists should first review the motor documentation and then proceed with installation and commissioning. Proper grounding is essential for safety of equipment and personnel. The DC link capacitors must be discharged fully after the motor is de-energized.
