February 12, 2008 - A new, brushless AC motor with a built-in controller that is ideal for OEMs seeking a compact, integrated system for high duty cycle applications is being introduced by SEVCON, Inc. of Southborough, Massachusetts.
The Sevcon HypAC is a compact, brushless permanent magnet AC motor (PMAC) that features an integrated controller, accepts 24 to 80 VDC inputs, and provides output from 1 to 5 kW. Designed for products requiring a highly reliable alternative to DC systems, this integrated PMAC is IP54 sealed, provides soft-starting, and is smaller than equivalent DC motors.
Designed to operate at fixed speeds to assure consistent performance across varying operating voltages, and/or a compensation mode regulating speed relative to the applied load, the Sevcon HypAC accepts standard ANSI pump shaft interfaces. Applications include material handling equipment, AGVs, and compressors.
The Sevcon HypAC is priced from $275 (list), depending upon quantity. Literature and price quotations are available upon request. Distributor inquiries are invited.
