Product Description:
The SC104-001 is a brushless servo controller in Pacific Scientific’s SC100 Brushless Servo Controllers series. It serves as the interface between a CNC or PLC and a three-phase brushless servo motor, regulating current and voltage loops so that commanded torque and speed are met inside automated machinery. Pacific Scientific supplies this model as a standard controller for cabinet mounting in packaging lines, pick-and-place axes, and similar motion tasks that require fast electronic commutation and closed-loop feedback. Its control architecture supports smooth acceleration, stable speed regulation, and quick response to changing load conditions.
The controller draws power from a three-phase supply rated at 230 VAC (+10%, -15%) and operates over 47–63 Hz. Inside the power section, a rectifier and filter synthesize a nominal DC bus of 320 VDC that feeds the IGBT bridge. Under stall conditions, the amplifier delivers a continuous phase current of 20 A, translating to a shaft power of 6 kW with a matched motor. Full-load efficiency remains above 95%, helped by a 5 kHz switching speed that balances loss and ripple. During deceleration, the shunt regulator diverts 30 W to hold bus voltage, and excess heat is removed through the heat sink. The internal DC bus and switching stage support stable current delivery during continuous motor operation.
Short-term overload handling supports rapid acceleration moves. For up to five seconds, the inverter sources 60 A of phase current, enabling a burst output of 17 kW. Regenerative energy from abrupt stops is managed by the shunt network, which can absorb 15 kW for 300 ms before the drive commands a controlled slowdown. Even at 100% duty, the power electronics release only 130 W as heat, keeping cabinet temperatures within the specified ambient band of 0 °C to 50 °C. A storage range of −55 °C to 70 °C preserves component integrity during shipment and long outages.
