The Sevcon Traction Controller is part of the MOS90 Range products from Sevcon. It has the latest microprocessor and MOSFET technology, which offer advanced features. The traction controllers are utilized for a wide range of electric vehicles such as personnel carriers, forklifts, warehouses, and pallet trucks. The controller is capable of operating silently, increasing the life of the components in the system, and improving economically due to its ability to reduce maintenance and hardware costs.
Technically, the Sevcon traction controllers have a nominal voltage range of 24 to 48 volts and it is offered in the current limit range of 180 to 600 amperes. There are numerous functionalities offered due to its microprocessor software. Some of its features are cutback functions, system protection through intricate circuitry, and high-quality hardware. Aside from the embedded features, there are optional features that can be added according to the demand for the controller. A calibration unit is optional allowing the operator to adjust parameters digitally. A more detailed specification is shown below.
The controller can now be purchased here in Cloud Electric, your one-stop shop for all your electric component needs. Cloud Electric is a leading distributor of electronic components in North America. We take pride in our informative product descriptions, pricing, and shipping speed.
