Product Description:

The CE03261 is a servo amplifier manufactured by Kollmorgen for the CD Servostar CD Drives series. Classified within the Compact Drive family, this unit supplies controlled three-phase power to synchronous or induction servomotors used in precise positioning, web handling, and machine-tool axes. By monitoring motor feedback and regulating phase currents, the drive forms the core of closed-loop motion systems where size, response time, and integrated protection features suit standard industrial cabinet layouts.

In continuous operation, the CE03261 delivers 3 A of RMS phase current, with a 500 ms peak capability of 9 Arms to handle acceleration demands. Pulse-width modulation is executed at 16 kHz, and a carrier frequency of 32 kHz further smooths the resultant current ripple. Fault indication is routed through a dry contact rated at 1 A so external circuits can respond to drive trips. Position loop closure relies on an integrated Encoder channel, and the internal control section manages the timing of that feedback. Power losses reach 60 W at full load, and the logic section can continuously sink 1.5 A for sensor excitation and switching tasks.

The drive accepts a surge of 2.6 A on its low-voltage rail and expects a nominal control supply of 24 VDC. Communication and logic are carried through a SERCOS interface with a 24 V logic input, providing deterministic motion commands and status feedback for coordinated axis control. Protective thresholds include an overtemperature trip at 80 °C, an overvoltage limit of 430 VDC, and an undervoltage cutout at 90 VDC. With a mass of 1.61 kg, the module imposes minimal static load on DIN-rail assemblies while preserving thermal margin for compact control cabinets. This layout supports installation where cabinet space is limited but dependable closed-loop motor control is still required.
