Product Description
AM8541-0E21-0000 is an AC servo motor. It belongs to the AM8500 series of industrial synchronous motors from Beckhoff Automation. Synchronous motors operate at a constant speed, which is synchronized with the frequency of the supply current. The motor supports a wide input supply range from 100 to 480 Volts AC. Performance specifications for 115 Volts AC input include 1300 RPM speed, 2.43 Nm torque and 0.33 kilowatts power. Performance specifications for 230 Volts AC input include 3000 RPM speed, 2.39 Nm torque and 0.75 kilowatts power. Performance specifications for 400 Volts AC input include 6000 RPM speed, 2.31 Nm torque and 1.45 kilowatts power. Performance specifications for 480 Volts AC input include 6800 RPM speed, 2.27 Nm torque and 1.62 kilowatts power. The AM8541-0E21-0000 motor has a plain shaft.
It is also equipped with a holding brake with 9 Nm holding torque, 18 Watts power draw and 0.54 Amps current rating. The brake is designed to operate after receiving a 24 Volts DC release signal from the motor controller. Its release delay is 40 milliseconds and the clamping delay is 20 milliseconds. The feedback device on the AM8541-0E21-0000 motor is a multi turn encoder for speed and position feedback. The motor connects to the controller through a M23 speedtec plug. It’s ideal ambient temperature for operation is 5 to 40 degrees Celsius. The manufacturer has provided a flange on the motor for mounting. Material used for housing construction is aluminum. The housing is coated with power coat for enhanced corrosion protection. A name plate on the housing provides an easy means for motor identification. Only qualified technical personnel should operate and handle the motor.
