Safety
Electrical requirements
The UCC2 and UCC2-2 is powered from the ac mains supply via an IEC 320 connector. The operating voltages of the unit are as follows:
100 Vac ‐ 120 Vac and 220 Vac ‐ 240 Vac –
15%, +10%
50 Hz / 60 Hz ±5% 120 W maximum
This equipment must be connected to a protective earth conductor via a three core mains (line) cable. The mains plug shall be inserted only
into a socket outlet provided with a protective earth contact. Connect the unit to mains power using a suitably rated cord and plug conforming
to local regulations. The cord and plug must be capable of carrying 264 Vac / 3 A. Do not use an extension cable without a protective
conductor.
An earth stud is provided to allow bonding of the CMM's metal parts to the protective earth.
CAUTION: Any interruption of the protective conductor may make the equipment dangerous. Make sure that the grounding
requirements are strictly observed.
Machine safety
WARNING: Switching off or isolating the UCC2 and UCC2-2 may NOT prevent unexpected machine movement. The user is
advised to Isolate the machine from the electricity supply, compressed air or other energy sources in accordance with the machine
manufacturer's instructions before entering the danger zone or performing any maintenance operations.
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the protection provided by the equipment may be impaired.

Environmental conditions
The following environmental conditions comply with (or exceed) BS EN 61010-1:1993:
Indoor use IP30 (no protection against water)
Altitude Up to 2000 m
Operating temperature 0 °C to +50 °C
Storage temperature ‐10 °C to +70 °C
Relative humidity 80% maximum ﴾non‐condensing﴿ for temperatures up to +31 °C
Linear decrease to 50% at +40 °C
Transient overvoltages Installation category II
Pollution degree 2
NOTE: If a higher IP rating is required, an additional external enclosure will be required to house the UCC2 and UCC2-2. This
enclosure must facilitate an airflow to allow the internal temperature to maintain the ambient within the operating temperature
range.

Specifications
Physical specification
The UCC2 controller is housed inside a 3U high enclosure which can be mounted in a 19 inch rack. Alternatively, it can be used as a desktop
unit.
A rack mounting kit (Renishaw part number A-5121-0006) is available as an optional extra.
Height: 127 mm
Depth: 330 mm
Width: 435 mm
Weight: 8 kg (without cables and daughtercards)
Cable lengths
UCC2 to CMM measuring scale readhead
The maximum specified cable length is 18 metres assuming that individual cable wire cross‐sectional area is a minimum of 0.055 mm². For
further details please refer to "CMM readhead input connections".
UCC2 to CMM servo power amplifier input
Dependent on the servo power amplifier, SPAlite, SPA1 or SPA2-2, this link is either a dedicated 25-way D-type cable or a pair of ethernet
cables. One metre cables are supplied as standard with the SPA kits. Other lengths can be fitted but it is recommended that the cable is kept as
short as possible with a maximum cable length of 2 metres.
Ethernet cable link to PC
This is a standard ethernet cat 5 cross-over cable and a 5 metres cable is supplied as part of the UCC2 kit.
Other lengths can be fitted up to a maximum of 100 metres.
Scale readhead signal speed
The maximum frequency of any one of the scale readhead quadrature signals, with ideal waveforms and phase displacement, is 12.5 MHz.
However, it is recommended that the maximum frequency of any one of the scale readheads should be 10 MHz.

Electrical power requirements
Controller output supplies
The UCC2 produces a +24 V current limited supply with a maximum output current of 1 A. This supply is available for use by the CMM system
to supply status switches, etc.
The UCC2 also provides protected supplies for other external devices such as scale read-heads, the probe, joystick, etc.
These supplies are:
+ 5 Vdc* at 1 A max
+15 Vdc at 1 A max
- 15 Vdc at 1 A max
* The supply to the scale readheads is a nominal 5.2 Vdc but, providing the sensor lines are connected through to the readhead, this voltage
servoes within the range 5 Vs to 7 Vs to ensure the supply is 5.2 V at the readhead i.e. it compensates for the cable volt drop. If the sensor
lines are not connected the supply defaults to 5.2 Vdc.
