Mentor II
25A - 7400A
208V - 660V
Digital DC drive
Overview
Mentor II is the World’s favourite DC drive, installed in
hundreds of thousands of applications, providing the reliability,
power and control to increase productivity for both new machines
and applications where DC motors are already installed.
- Up to four Mentor II drives can be connected in parallel and
series to quadruple the power range. This modular
solution simplifies the handling of the individual drive units and
makes the maintenance and servicing easier
- Drives can be arranged to provide 6, 12 or 24 pulse
systems. Higher pulse systems reduce the harmonic distortion
of the mains supply current
Applications
Many DC drive applications are for retrofit systems to improve
the performance and prolong the life of existing plants and
machinery. New applications for DC drives include:
- High Power applications
- Winding and unwinding
- Pulp and Paper processing
- Metal Rolling and processing
- Ski lifts
Benefits
- Powerful onboard intelligence allows the drives functionality
to be finely customised to the application and allows the removal
of troublesome analogue control circuits
- Standard winder and flying shear software allow Mentor to be
integrated quickly and easily
- Modular approach to high power drives allows multiple Mentor II
drives to be connected in parallel or series to economically
achieve the required motor current and voltage rating
- MentorSoft, a windows based software, provides an intuitive
environment for configuring the drives functionality
- Our knowledge and experience in DC drive systems allows us to
recommend the best solution for your individual circumstances
- Mentor II integrates closely with the Control Techniques AC
drives using CTNet, drive-to-drive communications
- Regenerative and non-regenerative modules available to suit
your application
- Fieldbus options including Profibus and DeviceNet allow Mentor
to be integrated within an automation system
- Worldwide expertise and support
