3General Description
3.1 DUET AD
The DUET AD represents EC-motors (brushless DC motor) with an integrated torque, speed, position
control electronic and a 14 bit single-turn absolute encoder.
The desired command can be set via analogue signal input 0 ... +10 V. The four operating modes
“clockwise rotation”, “counter clockwise rotation”, “Off” (rapid break- point with freewheel) and “Stop”
(rapid breakpoint with holding torque) are controlled via the two digital inputs IN0 and IN1. Optional, two
further digital inputs for additional functions are available. Therewith, among other things, 2 fixed motor
speeds (e.g. for rapid movement and creep speed), acceleration ramp and braking ramp can be memorized
on the device EEPROM. Two digital output signals are available additionally: one giving
12 pulses per turn (e.g. for position and speed control), the other showing “fault”.
Additionally, the device con be operated via Modbus RTU or CAN Open (only available on CAN Model)

DUET AD Installation Guide Pag. 5
By means of the integrated absolute single-turn encoder with a resolution 16384 increments per revolution,
a very high positioning accuracy with very good regulating characteristics can be achieved.
In case of larger needs, customer specific solutions with special firmware are available on request.
The DUET AD has except of the ball bearings no expendable parts and is hence excellently suited for
continuous operation. The motors Device can be combined with planetary or worm gears with a multitude
of gear ratios.

6Protective functions
6.1 Ballast circuit
During braking operations, kinetic energy is stored as electrical energy in an intermediate part of the
regulation circuit. This can cause excessive voltage in the intermediate circuit, which, in an extreme case,
could cause damage to electrical components. To prevent this, a DC-power supply should be used which
has a bridge rectifier and a smoothing capacitor of at least 1000 µF per 1 A nominal motor current.
In addition, an external ballast resistor (drop resistor) is necessary.
Motor Power Company recommends a resistor of 4,7Ω .
The ballast resistor must be defined depending on the braking power (at least 50watts). It is necessary to
use a fuse of 6,3AT against overloading of the ballast resistor.
The ballast circuit switches on at 52V and off at 50V device voltage. It does only work and protect the
device (and supply) if the ballast resistor is connected like shown in chapter 8.1 / 8.2.
According to standard, Motor Power Company offers the braking resistor (must be ordered separately).
005016001114 RESISTENZA DI FRENATURA 200W 4,7OHM HSC2004R7J
005016001116 RESISTENZA DI FRENATURA 500W 4,7OHM RS PRO
6.2 Current limitation
To protect the motor against overloading, the motor current (phase current) will be supervised from a I2t
protective function and will be limited (if necessary).

7Installation
Warning:
Before commissioning, it is essential that the safety instructions in the relevant
section are read and understood, and then observed!
Non-observance can result in danger to persons or damage to the equipment.
►Disconnect the electrical power supply before any operation on
the device!
8Mechanical assembly
Warning:
During installation, ensure that connectors are not damaged. Bent pins can
cause a short circuit and destroy the device.
Check the drive for visible damage before carrying out the installation. Do NOT install damaged devices.
The device must be fastened to a flat surface using 4 screw connections. The flange screws must be
prevented from distortion by means of spring washers.
The motor shaft axial and radial loads are:
•Radial load: 350N (applied on the shaft center)
•Axial load: 110N (applied on the shaft center)
8.1 EMI compatibility
Electromagnetic radiated interferences occur in the DUET AD and the machine in which the drive is
installed. Should no suitable protective measures be implemented, these interferences can influence the
signals of control panel wirings and can endanger the system operational safety.
For complying with limits in accordance with DIN EN 61000-6-4 (emission standard for industrial
environments), it is necessary to use shielded connection cables as well as low-inductive shield connection
for all components.

DUET AD Installation Guide Pag. 12
Further measures can be necessary depending on the application.
For complying with limits in accordance with DIN EN 61000-6-3 (emission standard for residential
environments), further measures are required.
These measures can be:
oAssembling the device in metal housing, or metallizing plastic housing
oLow-inductive connection of all components in the system
oHidden shielded cable routing in metal ducts
oUsing additional suppression components (ferrite or filter modules).
oAdditional storage capacitors
The electromagnetic compatibility of the machine must be tested and ensured before it is put into
operation.
8.2 Ground wire
•The motor housing must be connected to the machine earth via a separate earth wire.
•Please do not touch the connector pins.
NOTICE:
To protect the drive against damage or destruction by static discharge (ESD),
the motor housing must be earthed.

9Connection schematic
Warning:
Before commissioning, it is essential that the safety instructions in the relevant section
are read and understood, and then observed!
Non-observance can result in danger to persons or damage to the equipment.
Disconnect the electrical power supply before any operation on the device.
CAUTION:
Incorrect connection of motor power electronics.
The motor is not equipped with reverse polarity protection.
Consequence:
Destroying of the power electronics possible.

DUET AD Installation Guide Pag. 19
Check the right polarity.
NOTICE:
Loops must be avoided for all grounding concepts. Shielded cable must be used for the
whole cable system without interruption. Up to a length of 10m a common power and
signal cable can be used. If the cable is longer than 10m it is recommended to separate
power and signal in different shielded cables. When standard wires from Motor Power
Company are used, the shielding must be spaciously applied inside the control cabinet.
Failure to follow them can result in danger to persons or damage to the equipment.
9.1 Schematic circuit for power supply controller
CAUTION:
Peak current by switching-on of a variety of series-connected motors.
Consequence:
Destroying of the integrated electronics possible.
►Using a soft start resistor or adeguate power supply.
