1. This option offers a true zero backlash follower for the GS Series actuator. The dynamic load rating of zero backlash, preloaded screws is 63% of the dynamic load rating of the standard non-preloaded screws. The calculated travel life of a preloaded screw will be 25% of the calculated travel life of the same size and lead of a non-preloaded screw for the same application.
2. Stator voltage and pole options allow for catalog rated performance at varying amplifier bus voltages and pole configuration requirements.
3. Double stack option adds motor torque. Not available on shortest stroke GS actuators.
4. Linear feedback is not available with encoder feedback actuators or in the GS20.
5. Emerson En and Epsilon series, ElectroCraft BRU series and AB Ultra Series, and Kollmorgen ServoStar series amplifiers require motor data files for operation with GS series actuators. These files can be downloaded. Inquire with Exlar applications engineers for details.
6. The limit switch or brake options require a 3rd cable. Limit Switches and Brake together is not available as an option.
7. These housing options would typically be accompanied by the choice of the electroless nickel connectors if a connectorized unit were selected. This choice may also indicate a need for special material main rods or flanges. Please inquire with Exlar engineering.
8. Available with AB1, AB4/AB5, AB7, EM2, KM1, KM3, KM4, KM5, KM6, LZ1, LZ2, IN1, IN2, IN4, PC3, PS3, YS2 and YS3 feedback. This option allows the customer to use the standard cables supplied by their amplifier manufacturer. See Cable information.
9. Use of the Allen Bradley 1394 requires assistance from Allen Bradley to configure the axis for a custom motor.
