  • Abstract
    In modem processes the accurate positioning of damper drives and control valves is of prime importance. In order to fulfill these requirements this servo amplifier for the control of a dc motor was developed, resulting in a solid-state SCR output unit capable of being operated over a widerange of ambient and environmental conditions. In addition to high sensitivity and position accuracy,the amplifier can incorporate such features as high over-torque capabilities, torque limiting, speed control, and battery backup for power failure protection.
