Retrofit digital drives

Sprint Electric offers a comprehensive range of digital drives for AC slip ring /wound rotor motors. With output power up to 975kW, the JL/X range of digital drives is suitable for retrofit applications for gantry and tower cranes.

The JL/X range of slip ring motors covers output currents from 75kW to 975kW with supply voltage inputs up to 690VAC.

Sprint Electric’s JL/X range of slip ring motor drives is a derivation of the PL/X digital DC drive product range. It shares the same software and hardware platforms and delivers the same precise digital control functionality as the established PL/X range of DC drives. The main difference is that the thyristor stack configuration has been designed to provide a 3-phase output (U, V, W) suitable for controlling slip ring motors in either 2 or 4 quadrant modes. All the fieldbus options including Profibus, DeviceNet, EtherNet/IP, Modbus and CANopen, and configuration software packages used with the PL/X are also available for the JL/X range.
