This may be single-phase or three-phase. An AC power filter is required tocomply with the CE directive for which the MicroFlex was tested (see section 3.4.7).The 24VDC control circuit supply must be a regulated power supply with a continuous currentsupply capability of 1A (4A power on surge).3.1.2 Hardware requirementsThe components you will need to complete the basic installation are:H The motor that will be connected to the MicroFlex.H A motor power cable.H An encoder feedback cable (and Hall cable for linear motors), or resolver cable.H A serial cable connected as shown in section 5.4.H (Optional) A regeneration resistor (Dynamic Brake) might be required, depending on theapplication. Without the regeneration resistor, the drive may produce an overvoltage fault.All MicroFlex models have overvoltage sensing circuitry. Regeneration resistors may bepurchased separately - see Appendix A.H A cooling fan may be required to allow operation of the MicroFlex at full rated current (seesection 3.2.2).3 Basic Installation 3
