The DCH series actuator control combines an ac to dc switching power supply with a regenerative PWM drive

The DCH series actuator control combines an ac to dc switching power supply with a regenerative PWM drive. The product is suitable for applications requiring control of 12- or 24-Vdc motors when only 115- or 230-Vac power is available. Equipped with an isolated front end, this series is compatible with a 0- to 5- or 0- to 10-Vdc analog from any PLC. An 8-bit onboard microprocessor allows the control to be customized to replace a PLC in some applications. The product is microprocessor-based and equipped with standard I/O. In addition, 4Q reversing permits contactorless braking and reversing-on-the-fly.
