AMC's Extended Environment Servo DrivesAdvanced Motion Controls' Extended Environment Amplifiers are designed to operate under harsh thermal and mechanical extremes. An expanded thermal operating range allows these drives to function in both hot and cold ambient environments, and enhanced protection against shock and vibration provides additional system ruggedness. Extended Environment drives also afford benefits for applications in more docile conditions. The superior thermal capabilities reduce or eliminate the need for cooling systems such as external heat sinks and fans, enabling system designs to be more compact and to improve overall reliability.

AMC's Extended Environment Servo Drives feature:

  • Shutdown Heat Sink Temperature
    • AZX-series: +105°C (221°F) -- Hotter than boiling water!
    • DZX-series: +85°C (185°F)
  • Ambient Operating Temperatures
    • AZX-series: from -40° to +85°C
    • DZX-series: from -40° to +75°C
  • Complete Thermal Rise cycling in about 2 minutes
  • Shock up to 15g's at 11 msec, ½ sine
  • Vibration up to 30grms on all 3 axes
  • Light weight
    • AZX-series: 95 grams
    • DZX-series: 105 grams
  • ~97% {max.} efficiency

Designed to assist system compliance toward:



 

  • MIL-STD-810F - temperature, thermal shock, humidity, altitude, shock & vibration
  • MIL-STD-1275D - characterization of 28Vdc systems
  • MIL-STD-461E - control of electromagnetic interference
  • MIL-STD-704F - aircraft power characteristics
  • MIL-HDBK-217 - reliability predictions
