Our off-the-shelf DC Drives provide variable speed for DC motors from sub-fractional to 2 horsepower.* They are available in 115 and 208/230 Vac – 50/60 Hz with 1Ø input and are housed in a NEMA 1 enclosure. A variety of optional accessories are also available to meet the most demanding applications.
*For OEM applications, custom drives are available.
 
KBWM SCR Drive – NEMA 1
The KBWM series of DC drives are rated for 1/100 to 3/4 horsepower motors and are housed in a NEMA 1 enclosure. These drives are the compact version of the Multi-Drive (KBMD). This unidirectional SCR drive utilises the KBMM speed control module, which prevents motor failure due to demagnetisation. It requires a plug-in horsepower resistor to operate and includes an AC line fuse and an armature fuse holder.* This drive also contains auto inhibit which provides a smooth, safe start during rapid switching of the AC line and a terminal block to facilitate wiring. 
*Plug-in horsepower resistor and armature fuse supplied separately.
 
KBMD SCR Drive – NEMA 1
The Model KBMD-240D, also called Multi-Drive, is rated for 1/100 to 2 horsepower motors* and is an SCR drive housed in a NEMA 1 enclosure. It utilises the KBMM speed control for its electronics. It handles both 115 and 208/230 Vac line inputs by setting the built-in dual voltage switch. The single model can be used on a wide range of motor horsepower by inserting the appropriate plug-in horsepower resistor, which is required to operate this drive. It includes an AC line fuse and an armature fuse holder.** This drive also contains auto inhibit which provides a smooth, safe start during rapid switching of the AC line.

Options: Auxiliary heat sink, forward-brake-reverse switch kit**.
*An auxiliary heatsink is required when operating motors above ¾ hp at 90 Vdc and 1½ hp at 180 Vdc.
**Plug-in horsepower resistor, AC line fuse and armature fuse supplied separately.
