Digital DC Industrial Lifting Magnet Control

nnnn

Magnetek, the leader in crane and hoist motor control, offers the MagnePulse"

nnnn

Digital Magnet Control for the operation of DC industrial lifting magnets. Built

nnnn

on Magnetek's proven OmniPulse DDC platform, this microprocessor based,

nnnn

solid-state, DC-to-DC control combines advanced safety and performance

nnnn

features to improve productivity and reliability in your facility.

nnnn

ADVANCED PERFORMANCE

nnnn

• Digital control of the magnet's demagnetizing current means the magnet cleans

nnnn

the load faster and more consistently, increasing throughput

nnnn

• Exclusive OmniBeam™ feature allows the operator to enable any combination of

nnnn

up to four unique magnets to precisely match individual load requirements

nnnn

• Stepped current allows you to program the drive to lift/clean a single slab or a

nnnn

stack of slabs, reducing cycles and improving throughput

nnnn

• Power loss ride-through continues to energize the magnet to keep the control

nnnn

running and current flowing through the magnet when main power is lost

nnnn

IMPROVED SAFETY AND PROTECTION

nnnn

• MagnePulse DMC automatically removes magnet power during a fault event,

nnnn

preventing damage to the drive and magnet

nnnn

• Open/short circuit detection automatically disables current to the magnet if a

nnnn

cable is cut, avoiding control and magnet damage while improving plant safety

nnnn

• Over-temperature protection utilizes the magnet's resistance to determine its

nnnn

temperature, preventing magnet damage and increasing life expectancy

nnnn

• Digitally control the rate of current change to prevent voltage spikes or minimize

nnnn

drop time

nnnn

• Password protection stops unauthorized users from changing the

nnnn

control characteristics

nnnn

INCREASED PRODUCTION AND EFFICIENCY

nnnn

• Reduced lifting current maintains a full load while saving energy, lengthening

nnnn

magnet life, and increasing average lift capacity

nnnn

• Efficient use of energy reduces magnet heating up to 50%, reducing or

nnnn

eliminating the need for magnet change-outs

nnnn

• Flexible control options include single-input, dual-input, stepped-input, analog or

nnnn

serial current references as well as a programmable input to maximize magnet

nnnn

and crane performance

nnnn

• Twenty-five drive, magnet and control status monitors check magnet current,

nnnn

voltage, resistance, temperature, DC bus voltage, and control variables to

nnnn

simplify process optimization

nnnn

ENHANCED PROGRAMMABILITY AND DIAGNOSTICS

nnnn

• Comprehensive software provides superior flexibility and allows for quick

nnnn

parameter changes — software upgrades can be flashed from a PC

nnnn

• Fully compatible with IMPULSE®»Link 4.1 Basic and IMPULSE'Link 4.1 Wireless

nnnn

Diagnostic System (WDS) allowing you to upload, download and monitor

nnnn

parameters using a hardwired or wireless link to your PC
