5. d as long as the voltage stays between the limits keep the ripple voltage to 10 or less for best results The drive has a 2 second power on reset time before the motor is energized CAUTION Power supply voltage in excess of 80 VDC will damage the G201 If the power supply is more than 1 foot 300 mm away from the G201 a 470uF capacitor must be connected across the G201 s power supply terminals Keep the capacitor lead length to 1 inch 25 mm or less CAUTION Never put a switch on the DC side of the power supply This will damage if not destroy your drive The choice of power supply voltage depends on the high speed performance required of the motor doubling the voltage doubles the motor s high speed power In all cases the power supply voltage should be no less than 4 times or no more than 25 times the motor s rated voltage The motor may not run as smoothly as possible if the power supply voltage is less than 4 times the motor s rated voltage A power supply voltage greater than 25 times the motor s rated voltage will overheat and damage the motor even if it is not turning Motor winding inductance should be 500uH or greater but generally no more than 7mH A more accurate calculation of power supply voltage is to find your motor s inductance and put it into the following equation 32 mH inductance Power Supply Voltage If your motor has 2mH of inductance the equation would look as follows 32 V2 45 12V MOTOR CO
