MR-BAT6V1SET Lithium Battery Module by Mitsubishi 6V
Product Introduction
The MR-BAT6V1SET comes from Mitsubishi Electric’s MELSERVO series. This lithium battery module includes a battery and a sturdy holder. It delivers 6V DC to compatible MR-J4 servo amplifiers. Its main job is to back up absolute position detection systems.
Additionally, this module supports rotary servo motors and direct drive motors. However, it is not required for linear servo motors. The MR-BAT6V1SET slides and locks securely onto the host amplifier. You can rely on it for consistent backup power in industrial environments.
Technical Specifications
The MR-BAT6V1SET uses lithium-ion technology for reliable performance. Its voltage rating is 6V DC. The lithium metal content is 1.2 grams, while mercury content stays below 1 ppm. These figures meet strict environmental standards.
Here are the key measurements:
Width: 38.5 mm
Height: 69.3 mm
Depth: 21 mm
Furthermore, the module weighs only 0.075 kg (0.31 lbs). Such a lightweight design makes handling and installation very easy. The included battery holder ensures a firm connection to the MR-J4 servo amplifier.
Function and Application
This battery module serves two primary purposes. First, it helps build an absolute position detection system. Second, it backs up that system when external power is lost. Therefore, your servo amplifier retains its position data after a shutdown.
For instance, the MR-BAT6V1SET connects to a designated port on the MR-J4 amplifier. Once connected, it slides forward until it locks into place. You do not need special tools for this process. Consequently, maintenance becomes faster and safer.
Meanwhile, note that this battery works with MR-J4 amplifiers controlling rotary servo motors. It also supports direct drive motors. But if you use linear servo motors, you will not need this backup module.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Which servo amplifiers work with the MR-BAT6V1SET?
The MR-BAT6V1SET works with Mitsubishi MR-J4 series servo amplifiers. It supports amplifiers that control rotary servo motors and direct drive motors.
2. What happens if the battery runs out?
When the battery loses its charge, the absolute position data will be lost. After replacing the MR-BAT6V1SET, you will need to reset the home position.
3. How long does this battery typically last?
Under normal conditions, the MR-BAT6V1SET lasts approximately two to three years. However, high ambient temperatures may shorten its lifespan.
4. Is the holder included in this set?
Yes, the MR-BAT6V1SET includes both the lithium battery and the battery holder. You receive a complete plug-and-play module.
5. Can I use this battery with other servo brands?
No, this module is designed exclusively for Mitsubishi MR-J4 servo amplifiers. Using it with other brands may cause damage or poor performance.
