Description
The 186318D-31 is a National Instruments MID-7604 Stepper Motor Drive suitable for use with NI-7330, NI-7350, and NI-7340 motion controllers, offering motor drive currents ranging from 0.2 A to 1.4 A at 24 VDC over its 4 selectable axes. This integrated solution is ideal for laboratory and industrial applications, providing connections for encoders, limit switches, motors, and other motion hardware elements, with flexible current-per-phase settings and separate connector blocks for each axis.
The 186318D-31 is the National Instruments MID-7604 Stepper Motor Drive, designed for use with NI-7330, NI-7350, and NI-7340 motion controllers. This model offers 0.2 A to 1.4 A motor drive current at 24 VDC over its 4 selectable axes and is equipped with an IM481H modular hybrid bipolar chopper driver type with an operating frequency of 20 kHz. The NI MID-7604 is a complete integrated solution for laboratory and industrial applications, providing the necessary connections for encoders, limit switches, motors, and other motion hardware elements. This drive works as a system interface and power amplifier for controlling four axes simultaneously. It features flexible current-per-phase settings, separate motor power, limit switch and encoder connector blocks for each axis, and four levels of amplifier disable/inhibit protection for system shutdown. The integrated power supply can be configured for 230 VAC, 50 Hz or 115 VAC, 60 Hz operation and offers a continuous power output rating of 80 W for its 4 axes. With a maximum quadrature frequency of 1 MHz and default micro-stepping of 10-times (2000 steps/rev), DIP switches allow for a broad range of microstep rate settings. Each axis has a dedicated 5-position screw terminal block for motor power wiring and a 68-pin female high density VHDCI motion I/O connector. This device weighs 10 lb, measures 12.1 x 10.0 x 1.7 in., and has recommended operating and storage temperature ranges of 0°C to 40°C and -20°C to 70°C, respectively, with a non-condensing humidity range of 10% to 90% RH.
