Tolomatic servo and stepper drives can be controlled from a PLC or master controller via 24VDC digital I/O, 0 to 10VDC or 4 to 20mA analog I/O, Ethernet or Modbus RTU over RS-485 (EtherNet/IP or Modbus TCP protocols).
Used with pump and conveyor technologies, the NORD SK 180E decentralized AC vector drive features 3 digital inputs, 2 digital outputs, 2 analog inputs, an integrated 24V power supply and an onboard AS interface.
Providing microdrive control for variable-torque pump loads through 25hp, the Yaskawa iQpump Micro intelligent pump drive comes in NEMA 1- and NEMA 4X-rated models; NEMA 3R-configured packages are available.
Designed to move air in HVAC applications, the Mitsubishi F800 Series low-voltage variable frequency drive can be used with air handlers, cooling towers and pumps; it also controls and supports a range of motor types, including AC induction and permanent magnet motors.
The Rexroth IndraDrive Mi cabinet-free drive solution merges drive electronics and motors into an integral unit; it virtually eliminates the drive electronics in the cabinet.
A compact, ready-to-connect motor with integrated drive, the Siemens Sinamics S120M decentralized servo drive allows moving the motor inverter outside the control cabinet and directly onto the motor.
While the power transmission industry is pretty mature, power transmission components have had to endure a lot of hardships imposed upon them by the food and beverage industry.
The VACON 100 FLOW AC drive controls the flow and pressure of a maximum of 8 pumps (or fans) without an external controller; it is equipped with built-in Ethernet for commissioning and maintenance, as well as local or remote monitoring.
