BLH-S3

The BLH-S3 is a low power brushless linear servo amplifier in a 3E Edge Mount format. It is ideally suited to high precision positioning applications or if electrical noise and excess motor heating cannot be tolerated, or when low inertia/low inductance loads must be driven. This amplifier is configured for self commutation using Analog Hall effect sensors. Look to the BLH-S1 if External Sinusoidal commutation or Digital Hall sensors are required.

The BLH-S3 is a single card unit with a small plug in Personality Component Carrier to allow customized component changes for the peak current, gain, and integration factors. The Hall sensors provide two sine waves out of phase by 60° or 120°. The optimal third phase is derived by the amplifier. This eliminates "cogging" and greatly enhances low speed operation while allowing the amplifier to be driven with a standard ± 10V analog input command. An optional backplane is available to allow quick and easy access to motor, power, control and other I/O signals.
