Greetings!

Welcome to the latest newsletter from The Motor Control Warehouse. We hope you had a good Christmas and we would like to wish you a happy and prosperous new year. 

 

As our internet sales are increasing we have taken on a new employee, Gez who is now our Technical Sales Engineer. He will concentrate on customer relations dealing with sales and product support. He will be travelling around to visit new and existing customers. If you would like to discuss any new or ongoing projects with Gez please email [email protected]

or call us on 01686 688948

 

We are also looking to increase our Control Techniques product range with the introduction of the Mentor MP, the most advanced DC drive available. For our full range of products please visit us at

Recent system builds

Here at the motor control warehouse we design and build a number of systems. Below is one of the systems we have recently made to control the air flow and temperature in a automotive engine test cell.


 

The system we built comprised of 2 Opitdrive Plus 3GV Invertek drives controlling input and extraction fans. The input fan speed was varied to maintain the pressure in the cell to 50Pa bellow the ambient air pressure outside the cell. The output fan controlled the temperature in the cell to a manually adjusted point.

 

This is just one of many systems we have built incorporating our drives into a custom built system. For more information on our 'Drive-in-a-box' systems please email or call us.
