Product Description
The RAC 2.3-150-460-A0I-Z1 is part of the Indramat RAC 2 series of main spindle drive controllers. These drive controllers must be mechanically and electrically integrated into the control cabinet. It is important to follow the specifications for proper cooling, mounting, and installation. The RAC 2.3-150-460-A0I-Z1 controls a main spindle drive, which is part of the main spindle motor. The main spindle drive can operate in ambient temperature up to 55 degrees C, but the ideal ambient temperature range is 5-45 degrees C. The maximum altitude for the installation of the control cabinet is 1000 m above sea level. As the altitude increases, the rated torque and power for the main spindle drives goes down.
Humidity and condensation are important concern when operating the RAC 2 drive controllers. Humidity class F is the highest level of ambient humidity allowed. The average relative humidity in the most humid month must not go beyond 70%. The controller can be used in rooms that have a high risk of humidity. Examples of these include workshops in climates that are cold or moderate and dry or warm.
The RAC 2 controller protection classification shows how much protection the controller has against solid objects, water, and deliberate penetration. According to EN 60 529 (DIN VDE 0470), RAC 2 controllers fall in the IP 10 protection class. This means that the controller does not have protection against water. That is why the cooling mechanism must be properly set up to prevent condensation water from damaging the controller. The controller is not protected against deliberate penetration. It is, however, protected from penetration by solid objects with a diameter over 50 mm. This unit can be shipped globally with a one-year warranty period from Wake Industrial.
