The Allen-Bradley MPL-B540K-MJ72AA is a servo motor from the MPL series of low inertial servo motors. Servo motors, typically, are used in motion and position control applications. These application types are generally found in the manufacturing industries, particularly assembly, material handling, and sorting lines.
Specific to the MPL-B540K-MJ72AA, this servo motor has a rated speed of 4000 revolution per minute (RPM). It belongs to the 400V voltage class motors with Frame size 5. The motor is installed with a magnetic stack length that measures 101.6 mm or 4.0 inches. Motor connection is made via the provided Circular (SpeedTec) ring angle DIN connector which can be rotated up to 180°. For position feedback, this servo motor comes with a built-in multi-turn encoder.
The MPL-B540K-MJ72AA does not have an embedded shaft seal. Shaft seal is an optional kit that is used to prevent entry of process material to the servo motor internal assembly as these material may damage the motor. Additionally, shaft seal increases the inherent IP protection of the motor to IP66. Appropriate shaft seal for the MPL-B540K-MJ72AA is MPL-SSN-F165. Without a shaft seal, the motor’s inherent IP protection falls to IP 50, IP 51 and IP 55, depending on the mounting orientation.
The MPL-B540K-MJ72AA is compatible for use with Allen-Bradley Kinetix servo drives such as Kinetix 5500, Kinetix 5700, Kinetix 6200/6500, Kinetix 6000, Kinetix 300/350, Kinetix 2000, and Kinetix 7000. This servo motor is especially compatible for use in Packaging, Converting, Material handling, Electronic assembly, and Automotive applications mostly, Factory Automation applications.
The MPL-B540K-MJ72AA servo motor belongs to the 400 Volts AC voltage class and to a category of brushless AC synchronous servo motors. The motor complies with all of the applicable UL/CSA standards and it is CE marked. The MPL-B540K-MJ72AA servo motor has a rated output of 5.4 kilowatts and a rated speed of 4000 rpm. In addition to that, the servo motor has a rotor inertia of 0.00147 kilograms per square meter. The continuous stall torque of the motor is 19.4 N-m, while its peak stall torque is 48.5 N-m. Also, the continuous stall current is 20.5 Amps and the peak stall current is 60 Amps. In regard to feedback, the MPL-B540K-MJ72AA servo motor includes an absolute multi-turn encoder with 128 sin/cos. The included encoder operates through the Hiperface protocol. This motor weighs approximately 15 kilograms (33 pounds) and it features a frame size of 165 millimeters. Besides that, the MPL-B540K-MJ72AA servo motor has a magnet stack length of 101.6 millimeters (4 inches) and its enclosure comes with a shaft key with no shaft seal. The motor does not include a brake function and it is delivered with default factory options.
