Scr Drive

Minarik's RG5500U is a full-wave, four-quadrant regenerative SCR drive that delivers single or bi-directional variable speed for use in applications requiring smooth motoring or braking torque in either direction of rotation. Slide switches allow the RG5500U to accept a 115 or 230 V AC input to operate 90 or 180 V DC brush-type motors from 1 through 5 HP. Applications include overhauling loads; rapid deceleration, basic positioning, and high duty cycle reversing and braking without large, expensive mechanical contractors. The RG5500U directly interfaces with external devices and is an excellent candidate for leader/follower applications.
