Kollmorgen S772-FN3

Product Introduction
The S772-FN3 is a high-performance digital servo amplifier in the Kollmorgen SERVOSTAR S700 family, belonging to the S772 size class, which is the highest power class in the S700 series. The “FN” designation indicates the standard European/international configuration with CANopen and EtherCAT onboard, dual-channel STO, and 208–480 V mains voltage. The “3” suffix indicates that the F2 controlled fan option card is factory-installed in Slot 3. This model provides the full S772 feature set with the added benefit of noise-reduced cooling.

Working Principle
The S772-FN3 receives three-phase AC power, rectifies it to a DC bus voltage, and drives the connected servo motor through its IGBT power stage. The drive uses closed-loop feedback control for precise torque, speed, and position regulation. The F2 option card in Slot 3 monitors internal temperature, heat sink temperature, and brake resistor power dissipation to dynamically control the cooling fan speed, optimizing the balance between thermal management and acoustic noise.

Installation Requirements

  • Mount inside a closed switchgear cabinet free from conductive or corrosive materials
  • Use non-painted (conductive) mounting plates for proper EMC grounding
  • Ensure adequate clearance above and below the amplifier for unimpeded ventilation
  • Keep the ambient temperature within the permitted range (0°C to 40°C, up to 45°C with derating)
  • Connect power supply with appropriate fusing
  • Use 60°C or 75°C copper wire only; use Class 1 wire only
  • Use shielded cables for motor and feedback connections
  • Do not mount devices producing strong magnetic fields directly beside the amplifier

Usage Notes

  • The F2 option card is factory-installed in Slot 3 and cannot be added later; verify this configuration at ordering
  • Slot 2 is available for additional expansion cards such as PosI/O or PosI/O-Monitor
  • Monitor the fan operation through the LED display and drive parameters
  • Run the autotuning procedure after mechanical installation
  • If STO is not required, connect STO1-ENABLE and STO2-ENABLE directly to +24 VDC
  • Do not disconnect motor or power cables while the drive is energized
  • Use the MMC storage card to back up parameters before firmware updates
  • Wait 10 minutes after removing power before touching potentially live sections due to residual voltage
