N5
Universal control unit for stepper motors and BLDC motors. Two versions are available, with a supply voltage of 12 ~ 72 VDC (10 A nominal current / 10 A peak current) and with a supply voltage of 12 ~ 48 VDC (18 A nominal current / 40 A peak current).
- The control unit is fully programmable
- Control via programmable analogue/digital inputs or e.g. in CLOCK direction mode
- Communication interfaces CANopen, EtherCAT, Ethernet, EtherNet/IP or Modbus (RTU and TCP)
- Simple programming with Plug & Drive Studio
- Encoder input
- Output for brake connection
Unique SENSORLESS CLOSED LOOP function - after autosetup, the control unit is able to detect the motor speed even if it is not equipped with an encoder. The control unit creates its own virtual encoder. Using this virtual encoder, the control unit is able to detect the motor speed at motor speeds higher than approx. 100-200 rpm (depending on the motor type) and control the motor as if it were running in a closed loop - the motor is quieter, has minimal resonance, higher efficiency, less heating.
