Brushless DC Motor Systems
BX Series
The BX Series brushless DC speed control system offers
high performance and simple operation from a compact
driver and motor. Combined with the optional OPX-1A
control module, the BX Series can also provide excellent
position control and torque control capabilities.

 Torque-Limiting Function Specifications (with optional OPX-1A control module)
You can set the motor output torque-limiting value similarly for both the speed control and position control modes.
By one of the following:
• Digital Common Torque Setting: A torque-limiting value can be set for all data sets (No. 07) in one operation.
• Digital Independent Torque Setting: A torque-limiting value can be set independently for each data set (No. 07).
• Analog Common Torque Setting: A torque-limiting value can be set for all data sets (No. 07) in one operation via external analog

input.
External analog input:
• External potentiometer (20 kΩ, 1/4 W) or
• External DC Voltage, 05 VDC (input impedence: 15 kΩ)
Assuming that peak (starting) torque is 100 %, torque limiting values can be selected by one of the following:
• Digital Setting: 1100 % (Resolution 1 %)
Torque-Limiting Setting Range • External Analog Input, 1100 % by:
• External potentiometer (20 kΩ, 1/4 W) or
• External DC Voltage, 05 VDC (input impedence: 15 kΩ)

Note:
An error of up to approximately 20 percent may occur between the set value and generated torque due to the speed setting, power-supply voltage and distance of motor cable
extension. Repeatability under the same condition is approximately 10 percent. We recommend that the torque limit be set to approximately 20 percent or more.

Continuous operation is possible in this region. This region is used primarily when accelerating. When a load
that exceeds the rated torque is applied continuously or the
speed is above 2000 r/min, for approximately 5 seconds
overload protection is activated and the motor comes to stop.

 Torque-Limiting Function When Using the OPX-1A Control Module
The BX Series permits the setting of a motor output torque limit when the OPX-1A control module is used in both the speed
control mode and position control mode. The torque limit is set relative to the peak torque being 100 percent. When torque needs
to be limited continuously during push-motion operation or gravitational operation, set the limit to rated torque or less. Calculate
the output torque for the pre-assembled gearmotor based on the applicable speed and torque, using the speed vs. torque limit

An error of up to approximately 20 percent may occur between the set value and generated torque due to the speed setting, power-supply voltage and distance of motor cable

When the following are activated, the alarm signal will be output and the motor will come to a natural stop:
● Overload Protection: Activated within approximately 5 seconds of the motor load exceeding rated torque.
● Overheat Protection: Activated when the temperature of the heat sink inside driver exceeds approximately 194°F (90°C).
Protection Functions✽1
● Overvoltage Protection: Activated when driving a load exceeding the permissible load inertia, or when motor speed is increased due to gravitational forces.
● Undervoltage Protection: Activated when an input voltage to the driver is less than the specified voltage (10%).
● Out-of-phase Protection: Activated when the sensor wire inside the motor cable is disconnected during motor operation.
Motor Insulation Class✽2 Class E [248°F (120°C)]
Rating Continuous

✽1 With the FBL2 Series, motor speed cannot be controlled in applications where the motor's shaft is turned by the load, as in lowering operations. Also, to prevent
damage to the driver during lowering operations, if the primary voltage of the driver's inverter exceeds the permissible value, the protection circuit engages and the motor
comes to a natural stop.
✽2 Motor insulation is recognized as Class A [221°F (105°C)] by UL and CSA standards.

Notes:
● Pay attention to the temperature rise of the motor when used in applications requiring short cycles or bi-directional operation.
● Operate the motor so that the temperature of the motor case remains below 194°F (90°C) and the temperature of the driver remains below 176°F (80°C). If the temperature of the
heat sink in the driver exceeds 194°F (90°C), the overheat performing protection activates and stops the motor.
● Precautions should be taken to ensure that while lowering the load or other operations in which the load exerts a rotational force on the motor shaft, the inverter's primary voltage
does not exceed permissible levels, which could damage the driver.
