FEATURES & BENEFITS
n 4Q reversing: Regenerative or 4-quadrant drives have the ability to perform quick, contactorless reversing on-the-fly!
n Speed range and regulation: .1% speed regulation over 80:1 speed range in voltage or velocity mode. .05% over 100:1
speed range in tachometer mode.
n User adjustable calibration pots: IR compensation, forward max speed, reverse max speed, min speed, acceleration,
deceleration, reverse current limit, forward current limit, zero offset, gain and tachometer.
n Diagnostic LEDs: LEDs for Power and Fault.
n Stopping modes: The user can regeneratively brake (N.O.) or coast the motor to a stop (N.C.).
n Quick connect terminal block: Quick and easy wire terminations!
n Four operating modes: Voltage mode (no feedback), velocity mode, tachometer feedback mode and current mode.†
n High switching frequency: Power devices switch at 22kHz resulting in a very quiet motor!
n Option and Accessories: BOSSDB-115 or BOSSDB230 regen dump circuits.

BOSSDB-115 or BOSSDB-230 circuits may be used to increase the regenerative performance of these drives.
† 1kHz bandwidth response. BOSSxx-D240AC-CM drives are available with quicker response ( up to 3kHz bandwidth) and isolation for applications with front-end controllers.
Minarik’s BOSS Series of brushless DC drives provides regenerative
braking from 1/2 to 2 Hp. BOSS drives incorporate the desirable attrib-
utes of AC and DC systems; little or no maintenance (no brushes); com-
pact, cool running, and quiet motor; better than 1% speed regulation;
quick response; high speeds; superb low-end torque; and no audible
switching noise.
The BOSS 4Q can be run in four different modes; voltage mode when
using external velocity controllers to avoid “fighting”; velocity mode
which uses both the internal voltage and velocity loop for excellent reg-
ulation; tach mode for use with tachogenerator feedback of 7-50V/Krpm
for good low-end speed control; and current mode with a 1kHz band-
width for controlling torque, excellent with front-end controllers.
A 10-pin male connector provides non-isolated drive diagnostic outputs.
A user may obtain the following information: run/stop indication,
tachometer output proportional to speed, fault indication, average RMS
current out and phase current out.
