DC Motor Speed Control<br />

Controlling a DC motor’s speed is not as easy as just varying its supply voltage. The motor loses torque (power) as the<br />

voltage is lowered and it finally stops rotating. The MSC1C uses a technique known as “Pulse Width Modulation” - PWM -<br />

to control speed. This is the same system used on electric cranes, buses and subway cars. With PWM the motor receives<br />

full voltage whenever energized - however, the duration of the voltage changes; it’s sort of like flipping an on/off switch<br />

very rapidly! The motor rotates smoothly and with full power - no matter what the speed.<br />

KIT<br />

✔ Real pulse width modulation for accurate, stable motor control<br />

✔ Controls DC motors from 3 to 50 volts - up to 10 Amps!<br />

Full Power...<br />

Any Speed!<br />

The MSC1C will control DC motors from 3 to 50 volts at up to 10 amps! Complete instructions detail how the PWM circuitry operates<br />

and some hook-up ideas. Assembly takes only an hour or two. Kit operates on 6 to 15VDC and controls motor supply of 3 to 50 volts.<br />

Includes our custom case set measuring 5”W x 1½”H x 5¼”D. (To our friend that tried to use this to control 480V/100A industrial motors... sorry<br />

about the melted case!)<br />

Finally...A Stepper For All<br />

Those Surplus Motors!<br />

Stepper Motor Controller-Driver<br />

✔ Controls direction, step size, and power<br />

to the motor<br />

✔ Output drives 5 to 15 volts<br />

✔ Uses Motorola Stepper Motor Driver IC Chip<br />

The motors are top quality but how the heck do you drive them without shelling out a fortune? Easily, with the <strong>Ramsey</strong><br />

Super-Stepper! Build an accurate positioner, X-Y controller, plotter or even a Robot!<br />

The Super-Stepper will drive almost any stepper from 5 to 15 volts. You’ll be able to control direction, speed, step size (rotational<br />

increment), and even power-down the motor after rotating it. An on-board clock generator is provided for easy hook-up-and-go operation<br />

or you can externally drive the kit for more exotic control.<br />

We give complete details and ideas for additional uses. Put those versatile, first rate (and cheap!) motors to work with this exciting kit. Includes the matching black custom case set.<br />

Operates on 5 to 15 VDC. Case size 5”W x 1½”H x 5¼”D.<br />

SMD1C Stepper Motor Driver Kit With Case $39.95<br />

AC125 110VAC Power Adapter $9.95<br />

AC Motor Speed Controller<br />

✔ Load 24-240VAC at 5.5 amps!<br />

✔ Input voltage 110-240VAC!<br />

✔ Speed range 5-95%<br />

✔ Low RFI<br />

Adjust Speed But Maintain Torque!<br />

This controller was designed to control AC motors with carbon brushes, anything from drills to vacuum cleaners to saws. Unlike normal dimmers<br />

there is a phase-cut only once per period.<br />

The moment of cutting determines the speed, which can be adjusted from 5-95%. Thanks to this control, this kit provides high<br />

torque even at low speeds! Not just for 110VAC and 220VAC motors, this kit can also be used for low voltage (24VAC) AC motor<br />

loads. The supply and load circuits are electrically isolated from each other for both safety and reliability. Unlike a lot of AC controllers,<br />

RFI is suppressed to eliminate noise and interference. AC power input is 110-240VAC. Load voltage is 24-240VAC. Measures<br />

5.1” x 3.0”. From Velleman.<br />

SPECIFICATIONS<br />

Voltage Supply: 110-240VAC<br />

Load Voltage: 24-240VAC, 5.5A maximum<br />

Speed range: 5-95% of rated motor speed<br />

Dimensions: 5.1” x 3.0”<br />

K2636 AC Motor Speed Controller $38.95<br />

What a simple, neat, and “custom” way to add a tachometer to your vehicle or any other application where you need to count revolutions!<br />

This digital tachometer includes two interconnected boards. One contains two bright 7 segment LED displays to provide a unique digital<br />

display of your RPM! The 2nd board is connected with a flexible ribbon cable to make installation a breeze in any vehicle or application. Range is 100 to<br />

9900 RPM to cover anywhere from a a slow idle to a lead foot (usually followed by a blown engine!). An attractive red filter front bezel is included to give you a perfect custom<br />

“built-in” look! Runs on vehicle voltage (10-15VDC) at 200mA.<br />

The small main board measures 3.2” x 2.4” and the display PCB measures 3.2” x 1.8”. The matching red filter bezel measures 2.8” x 3.5”. If you’re looking for a super looking<br />

tachometer for your vehicle, the K2625 does the trick. From Velleman.<br />

Optically Isolated Interface Module<br />

✔ 5000 VAC of isolation!<br />

✔ Drives up to 150mA at up to 40VDC<br />

✔ Works with your existing projects and applications<br />

The Easy Way To Display RPM...<br />

Or Simply Revolutions!<br />

The OM2 provides an optically isolated interface between two devices. It can be used to convert nearly any AC or DC signal to logic level<br />

signals. It can also be used to activate a relay upon detection of an input signal. BUT the really great thing about the OM2 is the input and output<br />

are totally isolated from each other! Use virtually any voltage input level above 1.5 volts (as long as the input current is limited to a maximum of<br />

60mA). The input can be a simple DC level or an AC signal with a frequency up to 250KHz. The input and output are optically isolated from each other to<br />

5000 volts AC (rms), and the output can drive up to 150mA at up to 40VDC. It even provides active low and high outputs when the input is activated!<br />
