Technical Specifications

Engineering Advantages

• Dynamic Acceleration Performance: The low-inertia rotor design enables the MPL-A230P-VJ72AA to respond almost instantaneously to velocity and position commands. This significantly reduces cycle times in high-speed indexing and pick-and-place operations.

• Absolute Multi-turn Positioning: The integrated high-resolution multi-turn encoder maintains absolute position data even after power loss. This eliminates the need for time-consuming homing routines upon system startup, protecting delicate mechanical assemblies from unnecessary movement.

• Space-Optimized Connectivity: The right-angle Circular DIN connectors rotate 180 degrees. This flexibility allows engineers to route cables in tight machine enclosures without exceeding the minimum bend radius, effectively preventing premature cable fatigue and EMI interference.

• High Power Density: Utilizing high-energy rare-earth magnets and a 3-inch magnetic stack length, this motor generates substantial torque despite its small 75 mm footprint. This allows machine builders to downsize mechanical frames without sacrificing dynamic performance.

FAQs

• Does the MPL-A230P-VJ72AA require a battery for the multi-turn encoder?

  The multi-turn encoder tracks revolutions electronically; however, absolute position retention depends on the drive and control system architecture. Most Kinetix drive systems utilize a capacitor or battery backup to store this data through power cycles.

• Can I operate this motor in environments with splashing fluids?

  This specific model does not include a shaft seal. For applications involving exposure to coolants, oils, or heavy moisture, you must install an optional shaft seal or choose an IP66-rated model to prevent liquid ingress into the front bearing.

• Is this motor compatible with 480V drives?

  No. The MPL-A230P-VJ72AA belongs to the 200V voltage class. Connecting this motor to a 400/480V drive will damage the windings and void the warranty. Always match the motor voltage rating with the drive output.

• What is the condition of this product?

  We guarantee this product is 100% Brand New, original, and never used. It ships in the original Allen Bradley factory packaging with the manufacturer’s seal intact.
