FEATURES & BENEFITS
n NEMA 4X enclosure: Rugged metal enclosure protects against dirt, water and corrosive agents.
n 4Q reversing: Regenerative/4 quadrant drives have the ability to perform quick, contactorless, reversing on-the-fly!
n Speed range and regulation: 1% regulation over 50:1 speed range. 0.1% regulation over 60:1 speed range with the
addition of a tachometer for feedback. Armature or tachometer mode is switch selectable.
n User adjustable calibration pots: IR compensation, forward torque, reverse torque, tachometer, min speed, max speed,
forward acceleration, reverse acceleration, deadband, forward jog, reverse jog, and dwell time (for limit switch mode).
n Diagnostic LEDs: LEDs for jog, forward, reverse, and stop.
n Stopping modes: User can regeneratively brake (stop PB), coast the motor (power off switch), or decelerate to a stop
(N.O.). User can also decelerate to min speed (N.C.).
n Cage clamp and screw terminal block: Quick, secure and easy wire terminations.
n On board fusing: No need to add external fusing for protection of your drive.

Typical Applications
The RG501A/RG511A are dual voltage full-featured regen drives with a field
supply in a rugged enclosure. These high performance drives maintain motor
speed with automatic motoring and braking torque, while allowing high-duty
cycle reversing and braking.
The RG501A/RG511A have conveniently mounted operators. Included are a
power on/off switch and separate forward and reverse speed potentiometers
so independent speeds for each direction are easily set. Controlling the motor
is easy too, by pressing a button on the membrane panel for stop, run, reverse,
or jog (jog speed is adjustable). The user can also wire in remote pushbuttons
in conjunction with the on-board buttons.
Included and wired into the RG501A/RG511A package is our limit switch
logic board (200-0386A). This mini-PLC can operate in one of nine modes
between limit switches including continuous cycling, single cycle, dwell and
more–including adjustable stop and dwell times!
The high performance, versatile RG can be used in conjunction with our PCM4
signal isolator.
