With „safety“ the right decision for new drive tasks

Controllers from Dunkermotoren with Safe Torque Off (STO) functionality.

The external controller series BGE has been extended by another, important feature. In addition to the standard drive types such as positioning, speed and torque control and numerous condition monitoring parameters, an important safety function has been added. With the STO function, the power output stage of the electronics is safely switched off via two channels. If one of the two signals looses the input level of 24 VDC, the electronics reliably switch off the transistors that control the motor phases. The electronics BGE 6060A STO is suitable for drives (brushless or brushed) in a power class from 200 W to 1200 W. In addition to the CANopen and EtherCAT interfaces, the controller can also be operated as a standalone version.

The main applications of the BGE 6060A STO drive controller will be due to the voltage range of 10-60 VDC, battery-powered applications such as AGVs or industrial applications. For drive applications with STO functionality, Dunkermotoren also offers the appropriate controller for outputs <200W. In combination with a drive and attachment from the Dunkermotoren portfolio, we deliver a reliable and future-proof drive system with "safety".
