QuickSilver Adds IP65 Motor/Encoders to its Line of NEMA 17, NEMA 23 and NEMA 34 Frame Motor/Encoders

QuickSilver Controls, Inc., known for its ability to servo microstep motors, now offers a line of NEMA 17, NEMA 23 and NEMA 34 frame motor/encoders for servo applications in wash down environments.  Based on QuickSilver’s existing line of stepmotors, this new line exceeds the IP65 standard.

On the NEMA 17 and NEMA 23 frame IP65 motor/encoders, both the motor and encoder signals route through a single IP65 industrial round connector.  A single cable connects the wash down motors to QuickSilver’s existing line of servo controller/drivers (SilverDust and SilverNugget) creating a simple, single cable installation.  The NEMA 17 and 23 frame stepmotors develop continuous stall torques ranging from 21 ounce-inches (model 17-1) to 300 ounce-inches (model 23T-7).  All NEMA 17 and 23 frame motors come standard with an 8000 count/rev encoder.  A shaft seal plate is sold separately to extend the IP65 rating to the shaft by means of an o-ring seal around the pilot and a quad seal around the shaft.

On the NEMA 34 frame IP65 motor/encoders, two IP65 industrial round connectors are used for encoder and motor signals.  The 34 frame family will develop continuous stall torques ranging from 460 ounce-inches (model 34N-1) to 2550 ounce-inches (model 34HC-4).  Peak output power levels reach 580 watts with the 34HC-3 model.  All NEMA 34 frame motors come standard with a 16000 count/rev encoder.  A shaft seal is included to extend the IP65 rating to the shaft.  Closed loop servo control of the NEMA 34 IP65 stepmotors is provided by the SilverNugget controller/driver.
