Vector Line Regen
High performance Line Regen Vector controls for AC Induction motors are available in a variety of ratings, input voltages, and enclosure styles.
Using Flux Vector control techniques and closed loop motor feedback the Baldor Line Regen Vector control adds even more capability in slowing a motor and saving energy at the same time.
No dynamic braking resistors are needed to bleed energy from the motor control. Near unity power factor and ability to meet IEEE-519 (1992) is easy with the built in sine wave input/output converter section.
Baldor stocks ratings from 10 to 50 HP and has custom capabilities in larger horsepower sizes.
All units are UL and CUL listed and come standard with ready to mount NEMA 1 enclosures and easy to use Operator Keypads.

Washdown
Baldor Washdown Duty adjustable speed motors and motor controls are designed for applications where the equipment is subjected to brutal high-pressure washdown or exposed to elements of inclement weather.
Inverter and Vector controls are available in NEMA 4X enclosures from 1 through 20 HP.
All Washdown Duty controls are UL and CUL Listed. Inverter and Vector Duty motors are available in Paint Free and Epoxy Coated finishes from 1 through 10 HP.
All Washdown Duty Inverter and Vector Drive Motors are UL Recognized and meet NEMA MG1, Part 31.

Industrial Motor Controls: DC Controls
|
|
|
One Way
One-way DC controls are designed to operate permanent magnet or wound field motors.
If the motor's rotation needs to be changed, the armature leads need to be reversed. Some NEMA 1 and NEMA 4X controls offer optional switched for reversal.
Stopping of a motor with a one-way control should be done by dynamic braking, some controls offer the Forward-Brake-Reverse switch for this purpose too.
|
|
|
Regenerative
Regen controls are designed to easily operate the motor in forward and reverse directions without motor lead reversal.
A separate set of SCRs is used for each direction. With a regen control, stopping is controlled by using the motor's regenerated voltage sent back to the AC line.
