About the Kinetix VP Electric Cylinders

Kinetix VP electric cylinders feature multi-turn high-resolution encoders and are available with

24V DC brakes. The Kinetix VP motor rotates a ballscrew drive that converts rotary motion

into linear movement. This linear movement results in the extension and retraction of the piston

rod from the electric cylinder housing

The Kinetix VP electric cylinders have been designed for exact positioning at high speeds.

IMPORTANT The VP-A/Bxxxxx-x2xelectric cylinders are non-braking.When there is no input torque, the

piston rod can be moved freely.You can achieve self-locking of your motion system by using

motors with an integrated brake or with high self-braking torque.

Before You Begin

Remove all packing material, wedges, and braces from within and around the item. After

unpacking, verify the nameplate catalog number against the purchase order.

1. Remove packaging polyethylene foil and cardboard.

The packing materials are recyclable, except for oiled paper, which is waste.

2. Remove the electric cylinder carefully from its shipping container.

Consider the weight of the electric cylinder. Depending on the design, the electric

cylinder can weigh up to 20 kg (44.0 lb).

3. Visually inspect the electric cylinder for damage.

4. Examine the electric cylinder frame, piston shaft, and hollow bolts for anomalies.

5. Notify the carrier of shipping damage immediately

Planning Your Installation

See the Kinetix Linear Motion Specifications Technical Data, publication KNX-TD002, for the

specifications and additional products referenced in this section:

• This product can be operated in compliance with the relevant safety regulations only if

the maximum loading limits are observed.

• If you are mounting your electric cylinder in a vertical or sloping position, include safety

measures that controls the workload if the spindle nut fails.

• Corrosive environments reduce the service life of electric cylinders.

• Depending on the workload, the piston rod will bend. See Kinetix Linear Motion

Specifications Technical Data, publication KNX-TD002, for the piston-rod deflection

specifications for limitations.

ATTENTION: Do not attempt to open and modify the electric cylinder except to change

the motor connector orientation as described on page 12. Only a qualified Allen-Bradley

employee can service the internal working of the electric cylinder or motor.

Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in personal injury or damage to

equipment.

ATTENTION: The electric-cylinder is not intended to be used in applications where

side-loading occurs. Loads must be guided and supported. Aligned load with the

line-of-motion of the piston rod.

Side loading reduces the lifetime of the electric-cylinder.

ATTENTION: Uncontrolled masses that are in motion can injure or damage property.

If there is a spindle nut fracture inside the actuator cylinder due to wear, the working

mass drops down.

Check whether additional external safety measures are required to help prevent damage

of the spindle nut fractures.

• Motor feedback, auxiliary feedback, and I/O connector kits are not included, but can be

purchased separately.

• Factory manufactured single cables are available in standard cable lengths. They provide

environmental sealing and shield termination. Contact your Rockwell Automation sales

office or refer to the selection guide for cables.

Electric Cylinders with Brake Option

The brake option on this servo motor is a spring-set holding brake that releases when voltage is

applied to the brake coil. A separate power source is required to disengage the brake. A servo

motor controller or manual operator control can apply the power source.

If system main power fails, holding brakes can withstand occasional use as stopping brakes.

However, the rotational mechanical backlash that is created can potentially damage to the

system, increases brake wear, and reduces brake life.

An unpowered electric cylinder will require a brake to maintain its position if the force on the

actuator exceeds the Back Drive Force that is listed in Kinetix Linear Motion Specifications

Technical Data, publication KNX-TD002.

A brake can be used to help prevent the actuator from backdriving, typically in vertical

applications. A brake can be used for safety reasons or to hold the position of the actuator when

unpowered for energy savings.

IMPORTANT Holding brakes are not designed to stop rotationof the motor shaft, nor are they intended to be

used as a safety device.They are designed to hold a motor shaft at 0 rpm for up to the rated

brake holding torque.

The recommended method to help prevent the motor shaft from rotation is a four-step process:

1. Command the servo drive to 0 rpm.

2. Verify that the motor is at 0 rpm.

3. Engage the brake.

4. Disable the drive.

A disable drive removes the potential for brake wear that shaft oscillations cause when you have a

poorly tuned servo system.

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, 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 cables over the vent openings of servo drives.

• Ground all equipment by using a single-point parallel ground system that employs

ground busbars 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 the effects of EMI.

Install Cables

Knowledgeable cable routing and careful cable construction improve system electromagnetic

compatibility (EMC).

Kinetix 5500 and 5700 inverters and Kinetix VP electric cylinder combinations use single

motor-cable technology with motor power, feedback, and brake wires (when specified) housed

in one cable. Feedback wires are shielded separately and provide a shield braid for grounding in

the connector kit.

ATTENTION: The overall shield on the actuator 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

IMPORTANT Due to the unique characteristics of single cable technology, which is designed for and tested

with Kinetix 5500 and 5700 inverters and KinetixVP electric cylinders, you cannot build your

own cables or use third-party cables.

Install the Electric Cylinder

The installation must comply with all local regulations and use of equipment and installation

practices that promote electromagnetic compatibility and safety.

Follow these steps to install the electric cylinder.

1. Provide sufficient clearances in the area of the electric cylinder for it to stay within its

specified operating temperature range.

See Specifications on page 29 for the operating temperature range. Do not enclose the

electric cylinder unless forced air is blown across the electric cylinder for cooling. Keep

devices that produce heat away from the electric cylinder.

2. Make sure that the mounting surface supports the electric cylinder evenly so that it is free

of mechanical stress and distortion.

ATTENTION: Unmounted electric cylinders, disconnected mechanical couplings, and disconnected

cables are dangerous if power is applied.

Appropriately identify disassembled equipment (tagged-out) and access to electrical power

restricted (locked-out).

Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in personal injury.

ATTENTION: Make sure that cables are installed and restrained to help prevent uneven tension or

flexion at the cable connectors.

Excessive and uneven lateral force at the cable connectors can cause the environmental seal of the

connector to open and close as the cable flexes.

Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in damage to the electric cylinder motor

and its components.

ATTENTION: Damage can occur to the electric cylinder bearings and the feedback device if a sharp

impact to the piston rod is applied during installation. Do not strike the piston rod with tools

during installation or removal.

Do not attempt to rotate the piston rod during installation. If the piston rod rotates, the

mechanism that allows the electric cylinder to extend and retract breaks.

Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in damage to the electric cylinder and its

components.

IMPORTANT Position the electric cylinder so that all operating parts are accessible and the

breather port is not covered.

The evenness of support surface must be ≤0.2 mm (0.008 in.).

3. Attach mounting accessories to the electric cylinder; see Accessories on page 26.

Tighten the fastening screws evenly.

4. Attach rod-end accessories and the workload.

Be sure that the workload center of gravity is centric to the piston rod.

When fastening a rod-end accessory or workload to the piston rod, use two wrenches.

Use one wrench to tighten the mounting nut or rod-end accessory and the other, on the

piston-rod wrench flats, to counteract the applied torque. Be sure that the torque is not

applied to the piston rod and that the piston rod does not rotate.

ATTENTION: Do not modify the settings of the screws and the threaded pins.

Do not fasten the electric cylinder by the front cover alone when used with high loads.

Heavy tensile strain can cause the screws in the cover to pull out.

ATTENTION: Damage can occur to the electric cylinder bearings and the feedback device

if sharp impact to the piston rod is applied during installation. Do not strike the piston

rod with tools during installation or removal.

Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in damage to the electric cylinder

and its components.

IMPORTANT Do not twist or rotate the piston rod. If the piston rod is rotated, the absolute position

of the electric cylinder will be lost and the absolute home position must be re-

established.

If you are using a trunnion mounting kit, catalog number MPAR-NA1635xx, see

page 28 for torque values.

If you are using a rod guide accessory, catalog number MPAR-NE34xxx or

MPAR-NE150xxx, adjust the guides of the workload and the electric cylinder so that

they are exactly parallel. This alignment avoids excessive wear on the guide.

Change Connector Orientation

You can rotate the SpeedTec DIN-connector housings up to 325°.

Follow these steps to rotate the DIN connectors.

1. Mount and fully seat a mating cable on the 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.

ATTENTION: Do not rotate the piston rod during installation. If

the piston rod rotates, the mechanism that allows the electric

cylinder to extend and retract will break.

Use two wrenches to install the workload.

Failure to observe these safety precautions could result in

damage to the electric cylinder and its components

ATTENTION: You can rotate the connectors into a fixed position during installation of the electric

cylinder and keep them in that position without further adjustment. Strictly limit the applied

forces and the number of times the connector is rotated to be sure that connectors meet the

requirements of IP66 for the motor portion of the electric cylinder.

Failure to observe these safety precautions can result in damage to the motor and its components

3. Remove the cable plug after the connector is aligned.

Mount the Electric Cylinder

Use stainless steel fasteners to mount your electric cylinder to your application.

Attach Single Motor Cable

Follow these steps to attach the single motor cable after the electric-cylinder is mounted.

1. Carefully align the cable connector with motor connector.

ATTENTION: Apply force only to the connectors; do not apply force to the cable. Do not

use tools, for example, pliers and vise-grips, to assist with the rotation of the connector.

Failure to observe these safety precautions can result in personal injury or damage to

equipment.

BURN HAZARD: Outer surfaces of the motor can reach high temperatures, 65 °C (149 °F), during

electric cylinder operation.To help prevent accidental contact with hot surfaces, take precautions.

Failure to observe these safety precautions can result in personal injury.

ATTENTION: Consider electric-cylinder surface temperature when making the motor-mating

connection.

Failure to observe these safety precautions can result in personal injury or damage to equipment.

ATTENTION: The keyed connector 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.
