The HR500 motors were designed with an industrial setting in mind. Because of this, there are numerous features included that are needed to maximize the motor’s performance. By using rare earth magnets, the HR500 motors are used to help maintain a high torque to inertia ratio. Also included in this series of motors is an optical encoder which can grant the motor accurate speed and position regulation throughout the whole operating range.
Every HR500 controller comes with eight diagnostic LED indicator lights, which are used to indicate the following states: Power On, Run, Overspeed, Overcurrent, Overload, Encoder miswired/failure, and DC bus over/under voltage.
Without considering any of AX Control’s incredibly safe, reliable packaging to the total, the 5RE6 Exercise Module weighs approximately 3.00 lbs. or 1.36 kg.
