EVSS

Electronic fan speed controller with TK

The EVSS1 electronic speed controllers automatically control the speed of
single-phase voltage controllable electric motors (230 VAC - 50 / 60 Hz).
These units are equipped with Modbus RTU (RS485) communication, an
alarm relay output and thermal contacts to provide overheating protection
of motors with cut-out contacts. The EVSS1 controllers feature a wide range
of functionalities: remote control options, adjustable off level, min. and
max. output voltage settings, time-limited motor operation initiated by a
logic or switch signal .
Key features
• Invertible analogue input signal: 0—10 / 10—0 VDC or 0—20 / 20—0 mA

• Minimum and maximum output voltage setting by trimmers or via Modbus

• Off value setting by trimmer or via Modbus

• Modbus RTU (RS485) communication

• Kick start or soft start

• Remote control input with selectable functionality (normal or timer)

• Analogue input functionality (normal or logic - only for the timer start)

• 1 regulated output for the motor

• 1 unregulated output (230 VAC / max. 2 A) for 3-wire motor connection or

voltage supply

• 1 low voltage supply output (+12 VDC / 1 mA) for external 10 kΩ potentiometer

• Overheating protection

• Alarm output 230 VAC / 1 A

• Green LED operating indication

• Red LED overheating indication

• Illuminated power switch
