Selection Process & Wiring Schematic: 700A100 DC Motor Speed
Control
MOTOR SELECTION: From our extensive line of DC motors, choose a 6,
12 or 27 vdc motor that has a speed/torque curve beyond the maximum load and
maximum speed point at which you would like to operate. To assure that you will have some
accelerating torque under the most extreme operating conditions, allow a 15%
overload margin as shown. For applications
with high inertia in the system (i.e. more than 5 times the armature inertia),
you may need to increase the overload margin to as high as 25%. When selecting a motor, the only limits on
the speed/torque combination at which you can operate are the 4-amp rating of
the control and/or the continuous duty rating of the motor you select.
Control Selection Once you know which DC motor you would like to use,
you can select and order a control based on the ratings shown below:
| Control Part No. |
AC Input*, (rms) |
DC Motor Voltage (nominal
rating) |
| 700A101 |
6 VAC |
6 to 8 VDC(6 VDC) |
| 700A102 |
12 VAC |
10 to 15 VDC(12 VDC) |
| 700A103 |
24 VAC |
20 to 30 VDC(27 VDC) |
*The AC input is
the voltage transformed from the AC line voltage.Please reference the Wiring Schematic below.

note that while Motor Technology, Inc. is able to provide the DC motor and
speed control, the customer is responsible for providing the remaining
circuit components (i.e. transformer, potentiometer, fuses and
switch).
