Oriental Motor Introduces BXII Series Brushless Motor & Driver Package

Oriental Motor USA is pleased to announce the BXII Series Brushless Motor and Driver Package. The BXII replaces our popular BX Series and now offers an all new driver incorporating a built-in controller with all the features necessary for speed control, position and torque control.

The BXII Series now provides the highest level of speed control, up to 4,000 r/min with a speed regulation of +0.05% and is available from 30 W up to 400 W, in round shaft, parallel shaft gearheads or the hollow shaft flat gearhead and electromagnetic brake options. The new driver features a digital setting directly on the face of the drive to utilize the built-in speed control, positioning or torque limiting functions with no additional control module required.

The new driver can also work in conjunction with our popular MEXE02 software (free download) or if remote programming is required, our standard OPX-2A control module (sold separately) can be utilized. The BXII Series comes standard with a 3m (9.8 ft) cable included.

The parallel geared type produces up to 610 lb-in (70 N·m) of torque and the hollow shaft flat geared type products produces up to 970 lb-in (110 N·m) of torque. The motor and gears come pre-assembled. Packages start from $753 and available to ship in 5 business days.

What is Class I Division 2?

Image
A Class I Division 2 is a location: (1) In which volatile flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are handled, processed, or used, but in which the liquids, vapors, or gases will normally be confined within closed containers or closed systems from which they can escape only in case of accidental rupture or breakdown of such containers or systems or in case of abnormal operation of equipment, or (2) In which ignitable concentrations of flammable gases, flammable liquid-produced vapors, or combustible liquid-produced vapors are normally prevented by positive mechanical ventilation, and which might become hazardous through failure or abnormal operation of the ventilating equipment. Class I Division 2 Classification Class I Division 2 refers to the ANSI/ISA 12.12.01 standard. This standard was previously UL1604 until UL recommended the newer ANSI/ISA standard be used and that all hazardous location products be certified under this standa

FUSE SIZING CONSIDERATIONS FOR HIGHER EFFICIENCY MOTORS

Image
When selecting the proper fuse for short circuit protection in motor starting applications, it is important to not only ensure that the fuse will not nuisance open during motor start up times, but also that the fuse will coordinate as required with overload relays. When sizing fuses between 125% and 150% of the motor nameplate current, several advantages, including ease of coordination with an overload device, a smaller disconnect, and increased short circuit protection from a lower fuse rating, can be achieved. However, if sizing at this level prevents the motor from starting, it may then be necessary to increase the fuse ampere rating and it then becomes important to know the NEC sizing limitations. As of June 1, 2016, the US Department of Energy has mandated that newly manufactured electric motors will need to meet NEMA Premium® efficiency standards. As motor efficiencies increase, motor locked rotor currents can also be expected to increase. In addition to this, with across-the-lin

7/8 16UN Connectors that Provide 600 Volts and 15 Amps

TURCK announces new A-Size 3 and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast™ connectors that provide up to 600 Volts and 15 Amps of power. These IP67 rated connectors provide a modular wiring system designed to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while providing resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications. The cordsets are available with a tray rated, exposed run PVC flexlife ® cable, with or without STOOW rating, and 14 AWG wires that allow you to replace hard wiring with a robust, quick disconnect system that saves the time and money spent installing a conduit system. The A-Size powerfast line offers male and female, straight connectors, standard and custom lengths, and pigtails or extensions. To make the system complete, fully encapsulated mating receptacles, with 1/2”-14 NPT mounting threads are available.
