Upgrading replacing Control Techniques Dominax

What was the Control Techniques DominAx? 

The DominAx series was a digital AC motor speed control manufactured by Control Techniques UK . It was available in several models that could control 3-phase motors from 1 to 15HP. The input voltage ranged 380 to 480 VAC +/- 10% , three phase. The Dominax was based on the Control Techniques CD range of drives. The drive was designed in "bookshelf" format in order to optimize cubic space when utilised in multi drive systems.

Although the DominAx was manufactured and sold by Control Techniques it is not unusual to find them rebadge as Leroy Somer or Honeywell drives. In fact some drives, particularly those rebadge by large OEMs, did not feature the Control Techniques name or the DominAx brand.

 

Key Features of the Dominax Range 

• Dominax drives are designed to operate standard 3 phase induction motors and special high frequency motors
• Digital Control of output bridge by micro processor and custom designed ASIC
• Insulated gate bi polar transistor (IGBT) inverter outout bridge for high speed switching and low power consumption
• Choice of 4 PWM output switching frequencies to match applications
• Choice of three upper limits of variable output frequencies up to 380hz maximium
• Maxium flux on all speeds
• Programmable voltage boost for additional torque at low speeds
• Acceleration and Deceleration with programmable ramps
• Slip Compensation for improved speed holding in open loop speed control
