The 3 A rating is consistent with the CE03550 designation. Confirm peak-current duration and supply configuration against the specific drive nameplate before commissioning.
CE03550
Product Introduction
Kollmorgen CE03550 SERVOSTAR CD5 Servo Drive
The Kollmorgen CE03550 is a digital servo amplifier in the SERVOSTAR CD5 family. It regulates electrical power to a compatible brushless servo motor and uses encoder feedback for closed-loop motion control. With a 3 A rated output and an analog control interface, the drive is intended for precision single-axis applications where the controller supplies motion commands and the amplifier manages motor current and response.
The CE03550 is also associated with the full part number PRD-B040EAIZ-33. Replacement selection requires matching the feedback type, control interface, logic supply arrangement, motor voltage, and drive configuration. A similar-looking SERVOSTAR CD unit may have a different feedback or communication option.
Application Scenarios & Field Pitfalls
Typical application scenarios
- Packaging machinery: Controls servo axes for indexing, feeding, and positioning mechanisms.
- Machine tools: Provides closed-loop motor control for compatible auxiliary or positioning axes.
- Material handling: Regulates motion in pick-and-place equipment and automated transfer mechanisms.
- Precision manufacturing: Supports controlled acceleration, speed regulation, and position tracking in brushless servo applications.
These are representative applications of the SERVOSTAR CD architecture, not confirmation of a specific machine configuration.
Field pitfalls and verification points
- Encoder compatibility: The CE03550 is identified as an encoder-feedback version. Check encoder voltage, signal format, wiring, and resolution before connecting the motor.
- Control interface: Confirm the analog command arrangement and signal scaling. Do not assume compatibility with SERCOS or DeviceNet variants.
- Power configuration: Verify the actual input voltage and phase arrangement on the drive label. Incorrect supply assumptions can damage the unit.
- Peak current: The published 9 A peak rating is time-limited. Do not use it as the continuous motor-current rating.
- Motor matching: Check motor rated current, voltage, feedback type, and commutation requirements against the drive configuration.
- Regenerative energy: Review deceleration profiles and the braking/regeneration arrangement. An unsuitable regenerative setup can trigger DC-bus overvoltage faults.
- Parameter backup: Preserve existing drive parameters and motor tuning values before replacement. Recommissioning without the original configuration can cause unstable motion or unexpected axis response.
- Thermal conditions: Maintain cabinet ventilation and observe the drive’s specified ambient-temperature limits.

Procurement and replacement note: When sourcing a , compare both and PRD-B040EAIZ-33 against the original nameplate. Request photographs of the rating label and terminal layout, and confirm the motor feedback type, input supply, and control interface. A 3 A rating alone is not enough to establish drive compatibility.
