Product Description
The Gold Tiger series of digital servo drives are highly resilient and designed to deliver the highest
density of power and intelligence. The Gold Tiger delivers up to 10 kW of continuous power or
16 kW of peak power in a compact package.
The digital drives are part of Elmo’s advanced Gold Line. They operate from a DC power source in
current, velocity, position and advanced position modes, in conjunction with a permanent-magnet
synchronous brushless motor, DC brush motor, linear motor or voice coil. They are designed for use
with any type of sinusoidal and trapezoidal commutation, with vector control. The Gold Tiger can
operate as a stand-alone device or as part of a multi-axis system in a distributed configuration on a
real-time network.
based application enables users to quickly and simply configure the servo drive for optimal use with
their motor. The Gold Tiger, as part of the Gold Line, is fully programmable with Elmo’s motion
control language.
Power to the drives is provided by a DC power source (not included with the Gold Tiger).
Since the power stage is fully isolated from the control stage, the DC rectifier can be fed directly
from the mains, without the need for a bulky and expensive transformer.
If backup functionality is required to store control parameters in the event of a mains power
outage, then an A, H, S, or T optional Gold Tiger should be used, with an external 24 VDC isolated
supply connected to it.
Note:
The backup functionality can operate from an isolated voltage source within the range of
18 to 30 VDC.
Whenever backup functionality is not required, Gold Tiger models with the 0 or 1 Option (only for
400 V models) in the catalog number (section Catalog Number) can be used, i.e., they do not have a
24 V control supply. In these models, a smart control-supply algorithm enables the Gold Tiger to
operate with only the main power supply VP+ and VN-, with no need for a 24 VDC auxiliary power
supply for the logic.
The Gold Tiger is a stand-alone version of the Gold Panther module (PCB-mounted).
