Prolong Motor Life
Proper design and proper maintenance can increase the life of a servo motor. Follow these guidelines to maximize the life of a servo motor that is
operated within the Environmental Ratings on page 26:
• Create a drip loop in the motor cables to carry liquids away from the connection to the motor.
• Whenever possible, provide shields that protect the motor housing, shaft, seals, and their junctions from contamination by foreign matter
or fluids.
• Shaft seals are subject to wear and require periodic inspection and replacement. Replacement is recommended every 3 months, not to
exceed 12 months, depending on use. See Shaft Seal Kits on page 26 for more information.
• Inspect the motor and seals for damage or wear regularly. If you detect damage or excessive wear, replace the item.
Shaft Seals
Your motor has a shaft seal as standard equipment. A shaft seal is required on the motor shaft near the motor front bearing if the shaft is exposed to
significant amounts of fine dust or fluids, such as lubrication oil from a gearbox.
An IP65 rating for the motor requires a shaft seal and environmentally sealed connectors and cables.
•SeeEnvironmental Ratings on page 26 for a brief description of the IP rating for these motors.
•SeeShaft Seal Kits on page 26 for seal kits compatible with your motor.
• See Kinetix Rotary Motion Specifications Technical Data, publication KNX-TD001, to find environmentally sealed connectors and cables
compatible with these motors.
Couplings and Pulleys
Mechanical connections to the motor shaft, such as couplings and pulleys, require a torsionally rigid coupling or a reinforced timing belt. The high
dynamic performance of servo motors can cause couplings, pulleys, or belts to loosen or slip over time. A loose or slipping connection causes system
instability and can damage the motor shaft. All connections between the system and the servo motor shaft must be rigid to achieve acceptable
response from the system. Periodically inspect connections to verify their rigidity.
When mounting couplings or pulleys to the motor shaft, verify that the connections are properly aligned and that axial and radial loads are within
the specifications of the motor. See Motor Load Force Ratings on page 13 for guidelines to achieve 20,000 hours of motor bearing life or page 20 for
guidelines to achieve 40,000 hours of motor bearing life.
Prevent Electrical Noise
Electromagnetic interference (EMI), commonly called electrical noise, can reduce motor performance. Effective techniques to counter EMI include
filtering the AC power, by using shielded cables, shielding the signal cables from power wiring, and the practice of good grounding techniques.
Follow these guidelines to avoid the effects of EMI:
• Isolate the power transformers or install line filters on all AC input power lines.
• Do not route motor cables over the vent openings on servo drives.
• Ground all equipment by using a single-point parallel ground system that employs ground bus bars or large straps. If necessary, use
additional electrical noise reduction techniques to reduce EMI in noisy environments.
See System Design for Control of Electrical Noise Reference Manual, publication GMC-RM001, for additional information on reducing EMI.
ATTENTION: Damage can occur to the motor bearings and the feedback deviceif sharp impact is applied to the shaft during installation of couplings and pulleys.
Damage to the feedback device can result if you apply leverage to the motor mounting face when you remove devices that are mounted on the motor shaft.
Do not strike the shaft, couplings, or pulleys with tools during installation or removal. Use a wheel puller, to apply pressure from the user end of the shaft, when
attempting to remove any device from the motor shaft.

Kinetix VP Continuous Duty Servo Motors with 165 mm, 215 mm, and 300 mm Frame Sizes
Install Cables
Knowledgeable cable routing and careful cable construction improve system electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
To install the motor and cooling fan power cables, observe these guidelines:
• Keep the cable lengths as short as possible.
• Ground the cable shields to prevent EMI from affecting other equipment.
Functional Safety
Motors that are equipped with a Hiperface DSL functional safety-rated feedback sensor are designed in compliance with the requirements of the
following SICK STEGMANN GmbH documentation to maintain the functional safety rating of the feedback sensor attached. See Catalog
Number Explanation on page 2 for details about each option.
Certification
The TÜV Rheinland group has approved Kinetix VP continuous-duty servo motors that are equipped with functional-safety certified Hiperface
DSL digital encoders. Systems that include these motors can achieve a functional safety rating up to Performance Level d (PLd) and safety
category 3 (CAT. 3) per ISO 13849-1, and SIL 2 per IEC 61508, IEC 61800-5-2, and IEC 62061 when used with variable frequency drives that
satisfy functional safety requirements of the HIPERFACE DSL Safety Manual (SICK STEGMANN GmbH, publication 8017596/Z991).
To view the TÜV Rheinland certificate and other product certifications currently available from Rockwell Automation, go to
http://www.rockwellautomation.com/global/certification/overview. page.
Important Safety Considerations
In addition to the instructions throughout this document, you are also responsible for the following:
• Complete a machine-level risk assessment.
• Certification of the machine to the desired ISO 13849-1 performance level or IEC 62061 SIL level.
• Project management and proof tests in accordance with IEC 61800-5-2.
• The safe-motor feedback system has a maximum Mission Time of 20 years. After this time, the feedback system must be taken out of
service.
• The motor feedback system cannot support safety functions that are based on the absolute position without additional measures. If your
safety functions are based on the safe absolute position, the motor feedback system supplies only one channel without safety-related
diagnostics upon powerup. You must implement a second channel by using other measures.
• The motor feedback system is not able to create a safe state for the drive system independently. The drive system creates the safe state as a
response to an error displayed by the motor feedback system.
• To plan and use motors that are equipped with safety-rated feedback sensors requires technical skills that are not explained in this
document.
ATTENTION: The overall shield on the motor and cooling fan power cables must be grounded to obtain an effective encoder signal.
The encoder data signal is transmitted through an impedance-matched twisted-wire pair that requires effective shielding for optimum performance.
Be sure that there is an effective connection between the cable shields and the drive system ground.
ATTENTION: High voltage can be present on the shields of the motor cables if the shields are not grounded.
Verify that there is a connection to ground for all shields in the motor cables.

Performance Level (PL) and Safety Integrity Level (SIL)
For safety-related control systems, Performance Level (PL), according to ISO 13849-1, and SIL levels, according to IEC 61508 and IEC 62061,
include a rating of the system's ability to perform its safety functions. All safety-related components of the control system must be included in a risk
assessment and the determination of the achieved levels.
See the ISO 13849-1, IEC 61508, and IEC 62061 standards for complete information on the requirements for PL and SIL determination.
Safety-related Parameters
Motors that are equipped with a Hiperface DSL functional safety-rated feedback sensor are designed to maintain the functional safety rating of the
feedback sensor attached. The safety parameters of the feedback sensor are as follows.
Motor Installation
Motor installation must comply with all local regulations and use of equipment and installation practices that promote safety and electromagnetic
compatibility:
• All motors include a mounting pilot for aligning the motor on a machine.
• All motors include mounting feet for optional mounting. To access the rear foot mounting holes, remove the cooling fan subassembly.
• Preferred fasteners are stainless steel.
Change Connector Orientation
Kinetix VP continuous-duty motors with catalog number VPC-Bxxxxx-Qx1xxx use a connector style that integrates the power, brake, and
feedback signals within one connector. You can identify the connector style by the variable number in the motor catalog string. For example, in
catalog number VPC-B16539-QJ12FS, the 1indicates a single SpeedTec, right-angle, 325° or 330° rotatable connector. The rated speed variable
affects the degree the connector can rotate. Motors with rated speed variable of 9 and A can rotate 325° and motors with rated speed variable of D
can rotate 330°.
Kinetix VP continuous-duty motors with catalog number VPC-Bxxxxx-S/Yx7xxx use two separate connectors. Power and brake are on one
connector and the other is used for feedback. For example, in catalog number VPC-B1653A-YJ72FS, the 7indicates two SpeedTec, right-angle,
rotatable connectors. These connectors are rotatable to 180° from the center line of the motor.
ATTENTION: To avoid damage to the equipment, do not establish or remove electrical connections to the motor feedback system with the voltage switched on.

ATTENTION: Unmounted motors, disconnected mechanical couplings, loose shaft keys, and disconnected cables are dangerous if power is applied.
Identify (tag-out) disassembled equipment and restrict access to (lock-out) the electrical power.
Before you apply power to the motor, remove the shaft key and other mechanical couplings that could be thrown from the shaft.
ATTENTION: Verify that cables are installed and restrained to prevent uneven tension or flexion at the connector. Provide support at 3 m (10ft)intervals
throughout the cable run.
Excessive and uneven lateral force at the cable connector can cause the environmental seal on the connector to open and close as the cable flexes.

The rotatable connector housing lets you move the connector into a position that best protects the connection from environmental contaminates
and provides easy access.
Follow these steps to rotate a connector to a new position.
1. Mount and fully seat a mating cable on the motor connector.
The connector provides a larger area to grasp and extends the leverage force.
2. Grasp the mated connector and cable plug with your hands and slowly rotate the motor connector into the new position.
3. Remove the cable plug after the connector is aligned.
Install the Motor
Perform these steps to install the motor.
1. Provide sufficient clearance around the motor, and behind the cooling fan, for heat dissipation so the motor stays within its specified
operating temperature range.
See Environmental Ratings on page 26 for the operating temperature range. Do not enclose the motor. Keep other devices that produce
heat away from the motor.
2. See Motor Load Force Ratings on page 13 to determine the radial and axial shaft load limitations of your motor.
3. If you are using the optional mounting feet, remove the cooling fan subassembly to gain access to the rear mounting feet.
ATTENTION: Connectors are designed to be rotated into a fixed position during motor installation, and remain in that position without further adjustment.
Strictly limit the applied forces and the number of times the connector is rotated to make sure that connectors meet the International Protection (IP) rating as
outlined in Environmental Ratings on page 26.
ATTENTION: Use only hand-applied force when changing the orientation of the connector.
Do not apply force or pull on the cable and do not use tools, such as pliers or vise-grips, to rotate the connector.
ATTENTION: Damage can occur to the motor bearings and the feedback deviceif sharp impact is applied to the shaft during installation of couplings and pulleys.
Damage to the feedback device can result if you apply leverage to the motor mounting face when you remove devices that are mounted on the motor shaft.
Do not strike the shaft, couplings, or pulleys with tools during installation or removal. Use a wheel puller, to apply pressure from the user end of the shaft, when
attempting to remove any device from the motor shaft.
BURN HAZARD: Outer surfaces of the motor can reach a high temperature, 125 °C (257 °F), during motor operation.
Take precautions to prevent accidental contact with hot surfaces. Consider motor surface temperature when you select motor mating connections and
cables

4. Mount and align the motor.
5. If you removed the cooling fan assembly, reattach the fan subassembly and torque the fan subassembly mounting screws to the values shown.
6. Attach the motor cables that transmit the power, feedback, and brake signals.
a. Carefully align the cable connector with the motor connector.
The flat surface on the top of the motor connector and the flat surfaces on the cable connector must align for the cable connector to
mate with the motor connector.
b. Hand-tighten the knurled collar one-quarter turn to seat the cable connector fully.
c. If applicable, form a drip loop in the cables to carry liquids away from the connectors.

ATTENTION: Keyed connectors must be properly aligned and hand-tightened.
Do not use tools, or apply excessive force, when mating the cable to the motor connector. If the connectors do not go together with light hand force,
realign and try again.
ATTENTION: The overall shield on the single motor cable must be grounded to obtain an effective encoder signal.
The encoder data signal is transmitted through an impedance-matched twisted-wire pair that requires effective shielding for optimum performance.
Be sure that there is an effective connection between the single motor cable shield and the drive system ground.

Motor Load Force Ratings
Motors can operate with a sustained shaft load. The location and direction of radial and axial load forces are shown in the figure, and maximum load
rating values are in the tables.
Load Forces on Shaft
The following tables represent 20,000-hour and 40,000-hour L10 bearing fatigue life at various loads and speeds. The 20,000-hour and 40,000-hour
bearing life does not account for possible application-specific life reduction, such as bearing grease contamination from external sources.
