MP155A5 DC Drive Features and Highlights

Built for efficiency and durability, the MP155A5 integrates advanced control features with rugged construction. Its 2-quadrant, non-regenerative design ensures stable forward motor operation, ideal for applications that do not require regenerative braking. Operators benefit from flexible feedback compatibility—supporting encoders, tachometers, and armature voltage inputs—for both open- and closed-loop motor control.

A digital operator panel simplifies setup and monitoring, with intuitive parameter adjustment and precise fault diagnostics to minimize downtime. Comprehensive protection is built in, guarding against overload, overvoltage, undervoltage, and thermal issues to safeguard both the drive and connected motors. The MP155A5's modular, panel-mountable design allows easy integration into control systems, while its efficient operation helps reduce energy costs in continuous-use environments.

Industrial Applications for the MP155A5 DC Drive

The MP155A5 is widely used in industries that require accurate and stable motor performance. In material handling, it delivers smooth and reliable control for conveyors, hoists, and lifting systems. Paper, plastics, and textile facilities rely on it for precision in winding, spinning, and extrusion processes. It is also common in printing operations where consistent web speed and tension are essential, and in steel and metal processing plants where durability under load is critical. Manufacturing and assembly lines benefit from its dependable torque regulation, ensuring uninterrupted productivity.
