Speed and torque brushless DC electric motor controller for military uses introduced by DDC
BOHEMIA, N.Y., 4 Aug. 2014. Data Device Corp. (DDC) in Bohemia, N.Y., is introducing the PW-82560N0 speed and torque brushless DC electric motor controller for military applications such as gun turrets, pumps, fans, compressors, missile fin control, and rotating antennas.
The power electronics device has advanced programmability to provide a turnkey solution that can be tuned for use with a brushless DC motors and loads using either Hall sensor or sensorless feedback.
Users can program the brushless DC motor via an graphical user interface (GUI) to reduce time-to-market costs and in-house development efforts by enabling system parameters to be tuned during system development, and then reprogrammed for several or evolving applications, DDC officials say.
The PW-82560N0's design provides size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C) savings, while ensuring linear speed and current accuracy and high mean times between failures.
