Product Description:
Bosch is a multinational engineering and electronics company. It delivers products for automotive, industrial and building technology applications. The company offers automation and control solutions tailored for efficient and safe operations across various sectors.
The SM 1.5/3-TCT Servo Drive Module operates on a 560 V DC link voltage and delivers 1.5 A continuous output current. Its peak current capacity reaches up to 3 A that enables short term overload handling. The unit requires an external DC link power supply for operation. Users should note that its internal capacitors may require up to five minutes to discharge down to 50 V for safety purposes. The module is designed in a rack mountable format and supports both vertical and horizontal mounting orientations. It features built in flange mounts for secure installation. Passive cooling is achieved through a heat sink that avoids active cooling requirements and reducing maintenance. The servo drive module is ideal for controlling single axis motion tasks within automation frameworks. The installation of this model must be performed by a trained professional.
The SM 1.5/3-TCT servo drive module is enclosed in a metallic casing equipped with ventilation slots for thermal dissipation and includes EMI shielding to minimize electrical interference. For connections, the module provides screw type terminal blocks designed for secure input/output and signal wiring. The use of screw terminals ensures firm and secure wiring under vibration or motion. It also includes a DB9 connector which serves as a serial or encoder interface that allows easy integration into automation systems. The combination of compact form, passive cooling and flexible mounting makes it suitable for various industrial drive systems. The module’s robust design ensures stability during continuous operation under standard load conditions.
Frequently Asked Questions about SM 1.5/3-TCT:
Q: Does the SM 1.5/3-TCT module by Bosch support short term overload conditions?
A: Yes, the SM 1.5/3-TCT module handles short overloads with a 3 A peak current output. It ensures safe performance without thermal strain under temporary load spikes.
Q: How safe is it to handle the SM 1.5/3-TCT servo drive after power-off?
A: The internal capacitors of the SM 1.5/3-TCT may take up to five minutes to discharge to 50 V. Wait before handling to avoid electrical hazards.
Q: Can the SM 1.5/3-TCT by Bosch be mounted in any orientation within the rack?
A: This model supports both horizontal and vertical mounting formats. It features built in flange mounts that allow secure and vibration-resistant installation.
Q: Will the SM 1.5/3-TCT servo drive maintain reliable wiring in motion-heavy setups?
A: Yes, it uses screw type terminal blocks to secure input output and signal wiring. These terminals resist loosening under vibration and repetitive motion stress.
Q: Does the SM 1.5/3-TCT module offer efficient heat management without fans?
A: The passive heat sink enables thermal dissipation without active cooling components. This design reduces maintenance needs and avoids mechanical cooling failures.
