Low backlash for brushed gear motors
The GM Series of DC planetary gear motors is available in four frame sizes ranging from 1.5 to 4.2in diameter.
Able to deliver 25A continuous current at 12V DC, this compact (1 x 2 x 4in) control delivers the current required to power most brushed DC motors, by delivering 300W continuous output power.
Now, with the latest design enhancement, this device is now capable of delivering up to 40A peak (momentary) current, for a peak output power capacity of 480W.
The design is fully encapsulated (potted) enabling it to meet the IP65 standard rating for resistance to the elements and harsh environments.
The outer casing is brushed aluminium, and two 6.35mm diameter through holes are provided for easy mounting to any flat (heatsinking) surface.
A set of seven "quick connect" terminals is provided for connecting to power, motor leads, and a potentiometer, one of which is provided with each unit.
This design is also capable of accepting a 0-5V DC analogue command signal.
The MMP25A-12V has been designed for successful operation in numerous applications that include agricultural, sign motion, pop-up training targets, power winches, robotics, portable instruments, air moving devices, automated guided vehicles, ventilators, compressors, pumps, conveyors, RV/trailer range hoods, food processing, automotive and transportation industry, chemical feeders, pumps, gear motors, wire feeders, photo processing, paper processing, hose and cable take-up reels, and vibratory feeders.
