November 8, 2006 - DurA-Tek brushless DC motors available from AMETEK Technical & Industrial Products feature integrated drive electronics enabling enhanced motor controllability in a smaller, lighter package. Their 3.0-inch outside motor diameter and standard 2-wire electrical hookup further allow them to replace similarly sized brush-commutated DC motors while delivering relatively higher performance and extended service life.These motors ideally suit demanding high-duty cycle applications for equipment used in the transportation industry. Applications expand into HVAC, chemical, mining, medical/biotech, data storage, semiconductor processing, automation, and other industries that can benefit from compact and rugged motor construction.
For harsh environments these motors have been designed to resist hot-water spray, rain, humidity, salt, fog, shock, and vibration. “Smart” onboard motor controls and advanced electronic design deliver key features, including multi-speed operation; over-current control; locked-rotor protection; reverse polarity protection; transient over-voltage protection; and over-temperature shutoff.These 12V/24V brushless DC motors can achieve continuous torque from 19.7 oz.
-in. to 55 oz. -in. and speeds from 2927 RPM to 4400 RPM, depending on model. Custom product can be engineered.
