Product Information

Product Family: 9300 Servo | Series: 9300

The Lenze EVS9324-EP is a 3.0 kW servo position controller from the 9300 Servo family, designed to combine motion profile generation and power drive performance in a single compact housing. Operating on a 3-phase AC supply voltage range of 320 V to 528 V AC at 400 V or 480 V AC nominal, this unit delivers a continuous output current of 7.0 A with a 60-second peak current capability of 10.5 A. Featuring internal positioning function blocks, the -EP variant executes homing routines, position profiling, and sequence control directly onboard, eliminating the need for external motion controller hardware in multi-axis machinery such as packaging equipment, material handling mechanisms, and rotary indexing tables.

Connecting the EVS9324-EP into an automated production system relies on its dedicated interface layout, including a Sub-D 9-pin connector for resolver feedback and a secondary Sub-D port for incremental encoders or master frequency signals. Communication and synchronization across drives are handled through the integrated CAN system bus on terminal X7 running at up to 500 kbit/s, while an Automation Interface slot accepts option modules such as PROFIBUS-DP (EMF2133IB) or INTERBUS (EMF2113IB). Commissioning a replacement unit requires restoring the parameter set from the original controller using Lenze Global Drive Control software or cloning data directly via the Keypad XT (EMF2102IB) plug-in module. When replacing a failed unit on an active line, ABC Industrial Parts provides tested spare drives to minimize production downtime during replacement.

System status and fault detection on the EVS9324-EP are indicated through three onboard diagnostic LEDs: solid Red for active fault trips, Green for normal operation or flashing during controller inhibit, and solid Yellow for warning conditions or current limit operation. Detailed diagnostic registers and fault history log parameter C0168 can be reviewed via the Keypad XT display or the software diagnostic monitor. Standard troubleshooting begins with validating incoming 3-phase supply voltage across L1, L2, and L3, checking motor winding insulation, and verifying CAN fieldbus termination and node addresses. When internal power section failures, heatsink thermal sensor errors, or EEPROM corruption occur, internal hardware components are not field-serviceable, making drive repair or complete unit exchange through ABC Industrial Parts the standard route back to production.

Programming and Configuration

Parameter management and motion sequencing for the Lenze EVS9324-EP are configured using Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) software or directly at the drive using the Keypad XT (EMF2102IB) operator interface. Because the -EP model incorporates dedicated internal positioning function blocks, users can define position tables, profile acceleration ramps, homing routines, and task execution directly within internal drive memory.

Transferring setup data during unit replacement is straightforward due to parameter cloning features. Parameter sets stored in internal EEPROM memory can be saved to a PC via PC system bus adapters (such as the EMF2177IB or EMF2173IB) or transferred directly to a replacement drive via the Keypad XT module. When reloading sequences or parameter sets using GDC, care must be taken to match positioning table variables and firmware task structures to ensure correct axis operation.

Communication and System Integration

The Lenze EVS9324-EP incorporates built-in multi-drive networking through an integrated CAN system bus accessible at terminal X7. Operating at communication speeds up to 500 kbit/s, this interface allows rapid position synchronization, speed ratio coupling, and real-time control data exchange between multiple 9300 series drives without requiring centralized PLC motion modules.

To integrate with higher-level industrial networks, the unit features an Automation Interface (AIF) expansion slot. This slot supports optional communication modules, including the PROFIBUS-DP module (EMF2133IB) and the INTERBUS module (EMF2113IB). Physical feedback interfaces include a Sub-D 9-pin connector designed for standard resolver feedback and a secondary Sub-D port supporting incremental encoder signals or master frequency inputs.

Diagnostics and Status Indication

The front panel of the EVS9324-EP includes three status LEDs that provide visual diagnostic feedback during startup and operation. The Green LED lights solid when the controller is operational and flashes when a controller inhibit (CINH) command is active. The Yellow LED indicates an active warning or current limit threshold, while the Red LED illuminates solid when a fault condition trips the drive.

Advanced diagnostic analysis is supported through parameter C0168, which maintains a fault memory history accessible via the Keypad XT display or GDC software. The GDC diagnostic monitor enables real-time monitoring of CAN system bus registers, operating states, and active warning flags, assisting maintenance personnel in diagnosing fieldbus, power, or thermal issues quickly.

Status LED Indicators

LEDColor/StatusMeaning
Red LEDRed - SolidFault active / Drive error state. Indicates trip condition requiring reset.
Green LEDGreen - Solid / BlinkingDrive operational / Ready for operation. Blinking indicates controller inhibit (CINH).
Yellow LEDYellow - SolidWarning condition present or current limit reached.

Replacement and Spare Part Considerations

When replacing a Lenze EVS9324-EP servo position controller, matching the exact part number and option suffix is essential. The -EP designation identifies integrated positioning function blocks within the unit; substituting a standard 9300 drive without -EP functionality will result in missing motion sequences and system fault conditions.

Before putting a spare unit into service, the existing application parameter set and positioning tables must be transferred to the replacement drive using Lenze GDC software or a Keypad XT module. In addition, fieldbus option cards installed in the AIF slot (such as PROFIBUS-DP EMF2133IB or INTERBUS EMF2113IB) must be moved to the spare drive, and CAN bus node addresses and termination resistors must be configured to match the original setup.

Frequently Asked Questions

What software is used to program and configure the Lenze EVS9324-EP?

The EVS9324-EP is programmed and configured using Lenze Global Drive Control (GDC) software. Basic parameter adjustments and data transfers can also be performed directly on the drive using the Keypad XT (EMF2102IB) operator interface.

How do I transfer parameters from a failed drive to a replacement unit?

Parameters can be cloned using the Keypad XT (EMF2102IB) module by uploading the parameter set from the original drive and downloading it to the spare. Alternatively, you can upload and restore parameter sets via a PC running Lenze GDC software using a CAN system bus adapter (EMF2177IB or EMF2173IB).

What does the -EP suffix signify on the EVS9324-EP drive?

The -EP suffix indicates that the drive features integrated positioning function blocks. This allows the controller to execute position profiles, homing routines, and motion sequences internally without requiring external PLC motion modules.

What do the diagnostic status LEDs on the front panel indicate?

The Green LED indicates operational readiness (blinking during controller inhibit CINH), the Yellow LED alerts to active warnings or current limits, and the Red LED indicates an active trip or drive fault.

What steps should I take if fault code OC1 appears on the display?

Fault code OC1 indicates an output short circuit or earth fault. Check the motor power cabling and motor windings for phase-to-phase or phase-to-ground shorts. If the fault persists with the motor disconnected, internal power stage hardware failure has occurred requiring drive repair or replacement.
