Power rating:
- 0.75 kW – 2.8 MW (1.0 – 4,200 hp)
- 200 V / 400 V / 575 V / 690 V
Features
Enhanced throughput with high-performance open-loop control of induction and permanent magnet motors
- Advanced Rotor Flux Control (RFC) algorithm gives maximum stability and control of induction and permanent magnet motors
- 200% motor overload suitable for heavy industrial machinery applications
Reduce system costs by directly integrating with applications
- M600 incorporates an onboard PLC which can execute Machine Control Studio (IEC61131-3) programs for logic control, sequencing, speed following and digital lock – removing the need for additional PLCs
- Fit up to three SI modules to add safe motion, speed feedback, additional I/O and fieldbus communications
- Open loop vector or V/Hz induction motor control: Open loop motor control for induction motors. Easiest configuration. V/Hz can be used for multiple motor control.
- Open loop Rotor Flux Control for induction motors (RFC-A) : Vector algorithm utilizing closed loop current control to greatly enhance performance for all induction motor sizes.
- Open loop permanent magnet motor control (RFC-S) : Open loop control of compact, high efficiency, permanent magnet motors (including the Leroy-Somer Dyneo® LSRPM).
- Closed loop Rotor Flux Control for induction motors (RFC-A) : Speed and position control for induction motors, supporting a wide range of feedback devices (including quadrature, SinCos, EnDat 2.2, SSI encoders and resolvers).
- Active Front End (AFE) for power quality and regeneration : Active Front End allows regeneration of energy back onto the power line. The Active Front End also provides power factor control for power quality management and greatly reduces unwanted power harmonics.
