Curtis Controllers Model 1204

Curtis provides a simple wiring procedure in its motor control products so that you can fit it in your product conveniently. You need certain external products along with this electric motor controller. The list is given below

The detailed directions to install the Curtis 1204 electric motor controller are available in the instruction manual with illustrations, relevant figures, and wiring diagrams.

Functionalities

This model has modern features that make it proficient. It is capable of controlling several types of permanent magnet DC motors like brushless DC electric motors.

1. Adjustable acceleration rate
   
   This feature helps to avoid the irregular and bumpy start. The default acceleration rate circuit ensures the smooth and gentle start of the electric vehicle. It is designed to maintain a maximum increasing rate of acceleration. If the throttle is applied full-on at start-up, the acceleration rate setting determines how quickly the controller output increases. The standard setting is such that the controller will take one second to reach its full power.

2. Current Multiplication
   
   The driving range per battery charge of the electric vehicle has increased phenomenally with this feature. In this feature, the Curtis 1204 electric motor controller behaves like a DC transformer. It receives low current high voltage as input and gives high current low voltage as output. Hence, it reduces the current per kilometer drawn from the battery.

3. High Pedal Disable
   
   A smooth and safe drive of the vehicle is our priority. The HPD function disables the controller if the driver turns on the vehicle with full throttle applied. For the safe start of the vehicle, the motor controller must receive the key switch input before receiving a throttle input.
