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.

**Please 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).
