RTQ-HBL2372 RoboteQ HBL2372 Single Channel 150A 72V Brushless DC Motor Controller <font color="00ff66" size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Description<br>Roboteq's HBL23xx is a high-current, dual channel controller for hall-sensor equipped Brushless DC motors. The controller uses the position information from the sensors to sequence power on the motors' 3 windings in order to generate smooth continuous rotation. The controller also uses the Hall sensor information to compute speed and measure travelled distance inside a 32-bit counter. The motors may be operated in open or closed loop speed mode. Using low-cost position sensors, they may also be set to operate as heavy-duty position servos.<p>The HBL23xx accepts commands received from an RC radio, Analog Joystick, wireless modem, or microcomputer. For mobile robot applications, the controller's two motor channels can either be operated independently or mixed to set the direction and rotation of a vehicle by coordinating the motion of each motor.<p>Numerous safety features are incorporated into the controller to ensure reliable and safe operation. The controller's operation can be extensively automated and customized using Basic Language scripts. The controller can be configured, monitored and tuned in realtime using a Roboteq's free PC utility. The controller can also be reprogrammed in the field with the latest features by downloading new operating software from Roboteq.<p>Applications<p>- Industrial Automation<br>- Small Electric Vehicles, Electric Bikes<br>- Terrestrial and Underwater Robotic Vehicles<br>- Automatic Guided Vehicles<br>- Police and Military Robots<br>- Hazardous Material Handling Robots<br>- Balancing Robots<br>- Telepresence Systems<br>- Animatronics<p>Specifications<br>Motor Type Brushless DC<br>Max Voltage 72<br>Number of Channels 2<br>Direction Forward/Reverse<br>Max Amps per Channel 75<br>Continuous Amps per Channel 50<br>ON Resistance (mOhm) 6<br>Power Connections Wires<br>Analog Yes<br>RS232 Yes<br>USB Yes<br>CANbus Yes<br>RC Pulse Yes<br>MicroBasic Scripting Yes<br>Control Loop (ms) 1<br>Regenerative braking Yes<br>Max Analog Inputs 11<br>Max Digital Inputs 19<br>Digital Outputs 8<br>Max Pulse Inputs 4<br>Encoder Yes<br>Cooling Heatsink Extrusion<br>Dimensions 228mm x 140mm x 40mm<br>Weight 1500g</p></font>
