About the 14C108
14C108 is manufactured by Reliance Electric. This Regenerative Controller has an Auxiliary Panel and is a part of the FlexPak Plus Series.
The Horse Power rating for this controller ranges from 2 to 3, and the controller has an AC Input drive rating of 230 volts. These ratings give this controller an Input KVA ranging from 3.22 to 4.83. 14C108 also carries a D-C Armature Voltage of 180 and a Rated Armature Current of between 10.0 and 15.0 amperes. The available field voltage is 200 and the available field current is 3.0 amperes.
Make sure you have wired the speed reference circuit before attempting start up. During set-up of the controller, adjust the following settings as needed: minimum speed, maximum speed, drive acceleration time, drive deceleration time, current limit, and IR drop compensation. Remember to install the drives vertically with two inches of space between each drive.
The dimensions of all FlexPak Plus Regenerative Controllers are 11.97” (305mm) x 7.93” (201mm) x 8.37” (213mm). The dimensions of the auxiliary panel are 4.75” (111mm) x 8.37” (213mm). The dimensions of the basic controller are 7.22” (184mm) x 8.37” (213mm). Regenerative controllers are larger than non-regenerative controllers in this series.
Regenerative drives come standard with a Tachometer Feedback Kit, which allows for applications requiring accuracy of speed regulation to 0.5% with a 95% load change with the specified tachometer. One possible modification of the controller is the Voltage Follower Kit, which allows the drive to follow an external D-C voltage signal.
