Protective Functions* | When the following protective functions are activated, an alarm signal will be output, and the motor will come to a coasting stop. (Instantaneous stop for external abnormality)

Maximum Extension Distance | Motor and driver distance 23.4 m (when an accessory connection cable or extension cable is used) |
Time Rating | Continuous |
- *The BLF series cannot conduct speed control of the motor in applications in which the motor shaft is turned from the load side, such as gravitational operation.
When a load exceeding the permissible load inertia value is driven, or when gravitational operation is performed, the overvoltage protective function works to bring the motor to a coasting stop.

Permissible Radial Load Calculation
The formula for calculating the permissible radial load varies depending on the mechanism.
When One Side of the Load Shaft is Not Supported by the Bearing Unit
The radial load is the most difficult mechanism. A Stepped Type Load Shaft is recommended.

F0 [N]:
Permissible Radial Load at the Flange-Mounting Surface Position
Lp [mm]:
Distance from Flange-Mounting Surface to Radial Load Point
