BECKHOFF Drive Technology 1 Foreword
AX5000 Version 6.2 7
1.7 Appropriate use
The servo drives of the AX5000 series are exclusively designed for torque, speed and
position control of suitable asynchronous and synchronous three-phase current motors. The
maximum permissible effective motor voltage must be at least equal the effective mains
voltage fed into the servo drive.
The servo drives from the AX5000 series are designed for installation as components in
electrical systems or machines and may be operated only as integrated system or machine
components.
WARNING
Caution – Risk of injury!
Electronic equipment is not fail-safe. The machine manufacturer is
responsible for ensuring that the connected motors and the machine are
brought into a safe state in the event of a fault in the drive system.
The servo drives may only be operated in enclosed control cabinets and in accordance with
the conditions described in the: "Technical data" section.
Improper use
The servo drive AX5000 is not suitable for use in the following areas:
•in ATEX zones without a suitable housing
•in areas with aggressive environments (e.g. aggressive gases or chemicals)
The relevant standards and directives for EMC interference emissions must be complied
with in residential areas.

1 Foreword BECKHOFF Drive Technology

1.7.1 Dual Use (EU 1384/2014)
As published on December 30, 2014 by EU Commission Delegated Regulation
1382/2014, standard frequency inverters – and with that also Beckhoff products AX5000
– become newly classified Dual-Use items: the item list Annex I of the Dual-Use
Council Regulation 428/2009 has been changed accordingly, Frequency inverters
(listed in item position 3A225) with „operating frequency of 600 Hz or more“ are now
export controlled items. As a consequence some modifications have to be noticed.
Firmware versions without extension (Dual Use conform) can be used in consideration of
Hardware Versions with following drives:
•HW Version 1.0 (AX5xxx-0000-x0xx): Serial Number < 68.000
•HW Version 1.0 (AX5xxx-0000-x01x)
•HW Version 2.0 (AX5xxx-0000-x2xx): Serial Number < 140.000
•HW Version 2.0 (AX5xxx-0000-x21x)
Firmware versions with extension (Dual Use conform) can be used in consideration of
Hardware Versions with all drives.
Example: Exchange of an old Hardware 1.0 device
The defect servo drive AX5203-0000-x0xx should be replaced with an AX5203-0000-x01x to
avoid changes in the TC System Manager. When downgrading, the desired Firmware (FW
v1.00 - FW v1.05) must also be requested from Beckhoff Automation GmbH & Co. KG.
1.8 Documented servo drives
This documentation describes the following servo drives in the AX5000 range:
AX5101
AX5103
AX5106
AX5112
AX5118
AX5125
AX5140
AX5201

AX5000 Version 6.2 11
2.3 Notes for the servo drive AX5000
The safety instructions are designed to avert danger and must be followed during
installation, commissioning, production, troubleshooting, maintenance and trial or test
assemblies.
The servo drives of the AX5000 series are not designed for stand-alone operation and must
always be installed in a machine or system. After installation the additional documentation
and safety instructions provided by the machine manufacturer must be read and followed.
WARNING
Danger of life due to high voltage at the DC link capacitors of the
servo drive AX5000!
Due to the DC link capacitors dangerous voltage (> 875 VDC) may persist at
the DC link contacts “ZK+ and ZK- (DC+ and DC-)” and “RB+ and RB-”
after the servo drive has been disconnected from the mains supply.
Take the following measures for Safety:
•Wait at:
oAX5101 – AX5125 and AX520x = 5minutes
oAX5140 = 15 minutes
after disconnected the servo drive from the mains supply. The
device is safe once the voltage has fallen below 50 V.
•Measure the voltage at the DC link contacts.
•Secure the work area and wear the PPE (personal protective
equipment).
WARNING
Serious burns due to hot surfaces on the devices!
The surface temperature of the devices can reach ≥ 50°C during operation
of the system. There is an acute risk of sustaining burns to parts of the
body and limbs.
Take the following measures to avert danger:
•Do not touch any components (housing, etc.) shortly after or
during operation.
•Wait until all components have cooled sufficiently. At least 15
minutes.
•Check the surface temperature with a thermometer.
•DO NOT wear work gloves with a rubber coating. These can fuse
with the skin on account of the high temperature and cause
serious injuries.

2 For your safety BECKHOFF Drive Technology
12 Version 6.2 AX5000
NOTE
Notes on operation of the servo drive AX5000:
•Carefully read this manual before using the servo drive thoroughly,
paying particular attention to the safety instructions. In the event of any
uncertainties please notify your sales office immediately and refrain from
working on the servo drive.
•During the electrical installation it is essential to ensure that the correct
fuses/protective circuit breakers are used between the mains supply and
the servo drive.
Further information can be found in the "Electrical installation" section.
•If a servo drive is installed in a machine it must not be commissioned
until proof of compliance of the machine with the latest version of the EC
Machinery Directive has been provided. This includes all relevant
harmonised standards and regulations required for implementation of this
Directive in national legislation.
Attention
Hazard to devices and environment
•During installation it is essential to ensure that the specified ventilation
clearances and climatic conditions are adhered to. Further information
can be found in the "Technical data" and "Mechanical installation"
sections.
•If the servo drive is operated in contaminated ambient air, the cooling
openings must be checked regularly for blockage. These checks should
be carried out several times per day.
•The servo drives contain components at risk from electrostatic discharge
caused by improper handling:
oPlease ensure you are electrostatically discharged before
touching the servo drive directly.
oAvoid contact with highly insulating materials
(synthetic fibres, plastic film etc.).
oPlace the servo drive on a conductive surface.
oDo not touch the motor plug during operation of the
AX5000.
