The modules mount directly next to other BL20 modules and are controlled by the same gateway, letting motors be controlled via DeviceNet, Profibus, or CANopen fieldbus protocols. Available in direct ...

The NEC defines a controller in a few different ways. In Art. 100, a controller is described as “a device or group of devices that serves to govern, in some predetermined manner, the electric power ...

Single-phase and 3-phase AC squirrel cage induction motors need some type of control circuit to initiate a start or stop function. The two types of ladder control circuits commonly used are the 2-wire ...

Compressor overheating is one of the industry's most serious field problems today. Compressor overheating is usually caused by high compression ratios. High compression ratios can be caused by a ...

BridgeSwitch ICs provide a motor current output signal that maps the current passing through the low-side FREDFET. An internal sense-FET provides lossless current sensing. The solution is suitable for ...

Matching drive to motor is essential to gain the best combination of torque, speed, and efficiency. Selecting the right drive is essential to getting the best performance and efficiency from an ...

This solid-state thyristor (SCR) switch circuit is perhaps the simplest means of reversing a 3 phase motor. “Static” is a catch-all term that essentially means without moving (mechanical) contacts ...
