1.5 Electromagnetic brake The rotary servo motor with an electromagnetic brake can be used to prevent a drop in vertical lift applications or to ensure
double safety at an emergency stop, for example. When operating the rotary servo motor, supply power to the
electromagnetic brake to release the brake. Switching power off enables the electromagnetic brake.
Precautions
The electromagnetic brake on the rotary servo motor is designed to hold the motor shaft and should not be used for
ordinary braking.
Incorrect wiring, service life, or the mechanical structure (e.g. where a ball screw and the rotary servo motor are coupled via
a timing belt) may cause the electromagnetic brake to be unable to hold the motor shaft. To ensure safety, install a stopper
on the machine side.
If it is assumed that a power failure or product malfunction may result in a hazardous situation, use a rotary servo motor
with an electromagnetic brake or provide an external brake system for holding purpose to prevent such hazard.
Configure an electromagnetic brake circuit which is interlocked with an external emergency stop switch.
The electromagnetic brake is provided to prevent a drop at a power failure or servo alarm occurrence during vertical drive
or to hold a shaft at a stop. Do not use it for normal braking (including braking at servo-lock).
The electromagnetic brake has a time lag. Ensure enough time between releasing the electromagnetic brake and starting
the rotary servo motor. Be sure to check the operation delay time with an actual machine.
For details of the circuit configuration and timing chart, refer to the following.
MR-JET User's Manual (Hardware)
When the electromagnetic brake is released, the temperature of the rotary servo motor may increase regardless of driving.
The service life of the brake may be shortened under sudden acceleration/deceleration conditions.
Electromagnetic brake power supply Prepare the following power supply for use with the electromagnetic brake only. The electromagnetic brake terminals (B1 and
B2) have no polarity.
A surge absorber (VAR) must be installed between B1 and B2. For a selection example of surge absorbers, refer to the
"Characteristics of electromagnetic brake" section appropriate for the rotary servo motor series being used.
When a diode is used as a surge absorber, the electromagnetic braking time becomes longer.
Sound generation The brake lining may rattle during a low-speed operation; however, it poses no functional problem.
The noise may be reduced or eliminated by the machine resonance suppression filter set with the servo amplifier parameters.
For details, refer to "Machine resonance suppression filter" in the following manual.

Selection condition
Tentative selection and verification of surge absorber Maximum permissible circuit voltage of varistor
Tentatively select a varistor whose maximum permissible voltage is larger than Vb [V].
Brake current (Ib)
Energy (E) generated by brake coil
Varistor limit voltage (Vi)
From the energy (E) generated in the brake coil and the varistor characteristic diagram, calculate the varistor limit voltage (Vi)
when the brake current (Ib) flows into the tentatively selected varistor during opening of the circuit.
Vi is favorable when the varistor limit voltage (Vi) [V] is smaller than the desired suppressed voltage (Vs) [V].
If Vi is not smaller than Vs, reselect a varistor or improve the withstand voltage of devices.
Surge current width ()
Given that the varistor absorbs all energies, the surge current width () is as follows.
Examining surge life of varistor
From the varistor characteristic diagram, find the guaranteed current value (Ip) in which the number of the surge application
life is N at the surge current width (). Calculate the guaranteed current value (Ip) ratio (Ip/Ib) to brake current (Ib).
If a sufficient margin is ensured for Ip/Ib, the number of the surge application life N [time] can be considered as favorable.
Other precautions A leakage magnetic flux occurs at the shaft end of the servo motor with an electromagnetic brake. Note that chips, screws,
and other debris are attracted.

2 INSTALLATION
Precautions
Install the rotary servo motor on incombustible material. Installing them directly or close to combustibles will lead to smoke
or a fire.
Provide an adequate protection to prevent screws and other conductive matter, oil and other combustible matter from
entering the rotary servo motor.
The temperature of the rotary servo motor may exceed 100 C depending on the operating method. Take safety measures
such as providing covers.
The eyebolts of the rotary servo motor are only for transportation of the rotary servo motor.
Do not use them to transport the rotary servo motor when it is mounted on a machine.
Do not overtighten the eyebolts of the rotary servo motor. To prevent damage to the tap, avoid tightening too hard.
Stacking in excess of the specified number of product packages is not allowed.
Do not hold the cables, connectors, shaft, or encoder when carrying the rotary servo motor. Otherwise, it may drop.
Install the rotary servo motor in a load-bearing place in accordance with the user's manual.
Do not install or operate the rotary servo motor which has been damaged or have any parts missing.
Securely fix the rotary servo motor to a machine. If attached insecurely, the motor may come off during operation.
To prevent a connection failure, malfunction, or similar problem, do not strike the connector.
Be sure to measure the motor vibration level with the rotary servo motor mounted on a machine when checking the
vibration level. A great vibration may cause early damage to a bearing, encoder, and brake. The great vibration may also
cause the poor connector connection or bolt looseness.
For the gain adjustment at the equipment startup, check the torque waveform and the speed waveform with a
measurement device to check that no vibration occurs. If the vibration occurs due to high gain, the vibration may cause
early damage to the rotary servo motor.
Use the product within the specified environment. For the environment conditions, refer to the specifications of the rotary
servo motor series.
To prevent a malfunction on the encoder, do not apply shocks, e.g. hit with a hammer, when coupling the shaft end of the
rotary drive motor.
To prevent the shaft from being broken, do not subject the shaft of the rotary servo motor to more than the permissible load.
To prevent the shaft from being broken and bearing from being worn out, do not use a rigid coupling when coupling a load
to the rotary servo motor.
To prevent vibration during rotary servo motor operation, or the cause of a damage to the bearings and encoder, the
balance level of the load needs to be as even as possible.
To prevent a malfunction, do not use the rotary servo motor where the shaft-through portion may be subject to pressure
(e.g. compressed air).
Take safety measures such as provide covers, to prevent accidental access to the rotor of the rotary servo motor during
operation.
Do not get on or put heavy load on the equipment.
Do not drop or strike the rotary servo motor.
To prevent a fire or injury from occurring in case of an earthquake or other natural disasters, securely install, mount, and
wire the linear servo motor in accordance with the user's manual.

2.1 Mounting direction The mounting direction of the rotary servo motor is shown in the following table.
It is recommended that the connector section be set downward for mounting the rotary servo motor in the horizontal direction.
Examine the cable clamping method, and give a gentle slack to the connection cable, to prevent excessive load from being
applied to the connector and cable connection part.
Rotary servo motor with an electromagnetic brake The rotary servo motor with an electromagnetic brake can also be mounted in the same directions as the one without an
electromagnetic brake. When the servo motor with an electromagnetic brake is mounted with the shaft end upward, the brake
plate may generate sliding sound but it is not a fault.

2.2 Load mounting/dismounting precautions When mounting a pulley to the rotary servo motor with a keyed shaft, use the screw hole in the shaft end. To fit the pulley,
first insert a double-end bolt into the screw hole of the shaft, put a washer against the end face of the coupling, and insert
and tighten a nut to force the pulley in.
For shafts without a keyway, use a friction coupling or the like for coupling the rotary servo motor with a load.
When removing the pulley, use a pulley remover to protect the shaft from excessive load and impact.
To ensure safety, fit a protective cover or the like on the rotary area, such as the pulley, mounted to the shaft.
When a threaded shaft end part is needed to mount a pulley on the shaft, please contact your local sales office.
The direction of the encoder on the rotary servo motor cannot be changed.
When mounting the rotary servo motor, use spring washers or similar parts and fully tighten the bolts so that they do not
become loose due to vibration.
Precautions
To prevent a malfunction on the encoder, the shaft end must not be hammered during assembling.
Do not process the shaft to avoid damage to the encoder and bearing.
2.3 Permissible load for the shaft For the permissible load for the shaft specific to the rotary servo motor, refer to the chapter of the rotary servo motor series.
Use a flexible coupling and adjust the misalignment of the shaft to less than the permissible radial load.
When using a pulley, sprocket, or timing belt, keep the radial load within the permissible value.
Exceeding the permissible load can cause deterioration of the bearing and damage to the shaft.
The load indicated in this section is static load in a single direction and does not include eccentric load. To prevent the
rotary servo motor being damaged, make eccentric load as small as possible.
Precautions
Do not use a rigid coupling as it may apply excessive bending load to the shaft of the rotary servo motor, leading the shaft to
break and the bearing to wear out.

2.4 Protection from oil and water Provide adequate protection to prevent foreign matter, such as oil from entering the rotary servo motor shaft. When installing
the rotary servo motor, consider the items in this section.
Do not use the rotary servo motor with its cable soaked in oil or water.
When the servo motor is to be installed with the shaft end upward, provide measures so that it is not exposed to oil and
water entering from the machine side, gear box, etc.
If oil such as cutting oil splashes on the servo motor, the sealant, packing, cable, and other parts may be affected
depending on the oil type.
In the environment where the rotary servo motor is exposed to oil mist, oil, or water, the rotary servo motor of the standard
specifications may not be usable. Please contact your local sales office.
2.5 Cable The power supply and encoder cables routed from the rotary servo motor should be fixed to the rotary servo motor to keep
them unmovable. Otherwise, the cable may be disconnected. In addition, do not modify the connectors, terminals, and other
areas at the ends of the cables.

2.6 Rotary servo motors with an oil seal For rotary servo motors with an oil seal, the oil seal prevents the entry of oil into the rotary servo motor. Make sure to install it
in accordance with this section.
Even if the oil seal on the rotary servo motor makes noises during operation, it does not indicate a problem with the functions.
Pressure and oil level Install the rotary servo motor horizontally, and set the oil level in the gear box to be always lower than the oil seal lip. If the oil
level is higher than the oil seal lip, the oil enters the rotary servo motor and may cause a malfunction. Refer to the chapter of
the rotary servo motor series for the height above oil level.
High pressure against the oil seal causes abrasion and shortens the service life of the product. Keep constant internal
pressure by equipping a ventilator to the gear box.
Temperature If the lip reaches a high temperature, the service life of the oil seal will be shortened. Maximum applicable temperature of
material of the oil lip is 100 C, and the temperature of the oil lip increases by 10 C to 15 C at maximum rotation. Keep high-
temperature oil away from the oil lip.
2.7 Inspection items To prevent a malfunction, do not perform an insulation resistance test (megger test) on the rotary servo motor.
Do not disassemble and/or repair the equipment on customer side.
Periodic inspection Perform the following inspections.
Check the bearings, brake section, and the like for unusual noise.
Check the cables and the like for scratches or cracks. Especially when the cables are movable, perform periodic
inspections according to operating conditions.
Check the rotary servo motor shaft and coupling for misalignment.
Check the power connector and encoder connector tightening screws for looseness.
