AX8600

AX8600 DC Power Supply Module

The AX8600 DC Power Supply Module is an essential component in the realm of industrial automation, particularly designed for expanding the DC link voltage of an AX8000 system. This module is especially useful when spatial constraints in control cabinets limit the installation of additional AX8000 modules.

Key Features and Advantages:

DC Link Expansion Capability: The AX8600 is primarily used for extending the DC link voltage of an existing AX8000 system. It offers a practical solution for starting a new series of modules when the control cabinet’s width is insufficient for mounting all required AX8000 modules.

Interconnectivity: The module easily connects to the last module of an upstream AX8000 system using the DC link connection cable ZK4875-900x-xxxx. This feature allows for seamless integration and expansion of the system, up to the maximum permitted total DC link capacity.

Built-in Brake Chopper: The AX8600 comes with an integrated brake chopper, enabling the connection of an external braking resistor. This is particularly useful in scenarios involving regenerative energy, such as during strong braking of motors.

Energy Storage Option: For enhanced energy management, this module is compatible with the AX8810 capacitor module, allowing for the temporary storage of energy.

Additional Requirements: Each AX8600 module requires its own 24 V DC power supply and an EtherCAT connection for optimal operation.

The AX8600 DC Power Supply Module stands out for its ability to efficiently expand the DC link voltage in limited space scenarios, its seamless integration with existing systems, energy management capabilities, and the need for minimal additional components. It is an ideal choice for businesses looking to optimize their industrial automation infrastructure, especially in environments where space is at a premium.
