Control Techniques SP1406 Overview

Control Techniques SP 1406 Overview

The SP 1406 is a 3-phase size 1 AC variable speed drive product manufactured by Control Techniques for the Unidrive SP line of drives.  The Control Techniques SP line is dual-rated for both heavy duty and normal duty. The motors designed to be compatible with IEC60034 are supported by the dual-rated SP drive. The SP 1406 is a 400 V AC panel mount drive.

Features of the SP 1406 Unidrive

The 400 V 3 Phase size 1 SP 1406 AC variable speed drive is dual-rated. The Normal Duty ratings for the SP 1406 differ from the Heavy-Duty ratings.  For Normal Duty use the SP 1406 has a max continuous output current rating of 11 A and a nominal power rating of 5.5 kW at 400 V. The normal duty motor power rating of the SP 1406 is 7.5 hp at 460 V. The normal duty peak current rating for the SP 1406 variable speed drive is 12. A. The Heavy Duty max continuous output current rating is 9.5 A. The Heavy Duty open loop peak current rating is 14.2 A. The Heavy Duty closed loop peak current rating is 16.6 A. The Heavy Duty nominal power rating at 400 V is4.0 kW, and the motor power rating in Heavy duty mode is 5.0 hp at 460 V.

The typical input current for the SP 1406 is 12.6 A with the max continuous input current being 13.4 A. The fuse rating IEC gG is 16 A. The input for cable size EN60204 is 2.5 mm² and the output 1.5 mm².

Advantages

The SP 1406 can be operated by 24Vdc (control) and 48Vdc (power) low-voltage DC supplies. This is helpful in two ways. One of how this is beneficial is that it helps to keep motor operation when there is an emergency backup situation when there has been an AC supply failure. Another way in which this is beneficial is that during start-up, or when the unit is commissioned, it can limit the speed of the servo motor. The following is the working voltage range available when the power supply is low voltage.  Minimum continuous operating voltage: 36V Minimum start-up voltage: 40V Nominal continuous operating voltage: 48V Maximum braking IGBT turn-on voltage: 63.6V Maximum overvoltage trip threshold: 69.6V.

Several encoders are compatible with the Unidrive SP line of variable-speed drives.

Operation

The Control Techniques SP line of variable speed drives is designed to operate in several operating modes. The first is open loop mode which includes open loop vector mode, fixed V/F mode (V/Hz), and Quadratic V/F mode (V/Hz). The second operating mode that the SP 1406 can operate in is the RFC mode. The third operating mode is the closed loop vector. The fourth operating mode of the SP 1406 is Servo mode, and the final operating mode of the Control Techniques AC variable speed drive is 4 is Regen.
