Electrical Motor Control System

This textbook provides the architecture and content for acquiring the knowledge and skills required in an advanced manufacturing environment.

Electrical motor control system.

A motor controller is a device or group of devices that can coordinate in a predetermined manner the performance of an electric motor. Amatrol s electric motor control learning system 85 mt5 covers electric relay control of ac electric motors found in industrial commercial and residential applications. Electrical apprentices and journeymen will find this book to be invaluable due to electrical code references applicable to the installation of new control systems and motors as well as information on maintenance and troubleshooting techniques. An in depth analysis of critical subsystems focuses on monitoring and measuring current.

Sensing motor speed position and movement. Learners study industry relevant skills including how to operate install design and troubleshoot ac electric motor control circuits for various applications. In the case of a motor the desired operating equilibrium may be the motor speed or its angular position. Electrical motor controls for integrated systems is the industry leading reference that covers electrical motor and mechanical devices and their use in industrial control circuits.

This overview of industrial motor controls highlights the differences and subsystems for dc motor brushless dc and ac induction motors. In an open loop control system the controlling parameters are fixed or set by an operator and the system finds its own equilibrium state. A motor controller might include a manual or automatic means for starting and stopping the motor selecting forward or reverse rotation selecting and regulating the speed regulating or limiting the torque and protecting against overloads and electrical faults.
