Regenerative motors are not complex

A Sprint Electric product story
Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team May 3, 2005

Using little panel space and mounting on standard DIN rail, drives are able to regenerate energy back into the mains supply under braking without the need for complex intermediate storage.

Sprint Electric's 340XRi, 680XRi and 1220XRi DC drives offer a solution to four quadrant regenerative drive applications.

Using little panel space and mounting on standard DIN rail, these drives are designed for use with motors up to 1.8kW, 2HP.

The XRi drives are able to regenerate energy back into the mains supply under braking without the need for complex intermediate storage, resistive dumping or additional power bridges.

This is an important feature in these days of greater attention to energy conservation.

With four-quadrant operation, the torque can be reversed very gently or almost instantly, as required.

Although compact in size the 340XRi, 680XRi and 1220 XRi offers all the system functionality normally associated with Sprint Electric's products.

About Sprint Electric - Sprint Electric, founded in 1987, offers a wide range of dc motor control, with over fifty models covering both single phase and three phase, regenerative and non-regenerative applications.
