Using a 115- or 230-Vac power source, the PMB series is designed to run brushed dc motors, up to 180 Vdc. PWM technology creates a clean output voltage, which allows the motor to run at a cooler operating temperature at comparatively higher and lower speeds. The series is microprocessor-based, so it can be custom-programmed for OEM applications, including the ability to follow quadrature encoder feedback for speed or positioning control. These controls contain isolation and are UL-listed, with testing done to the 61800-5-1 standard. The drive also is a regenerative control, meaning it can reverse on the fly without any contacts on the motor armature.
