Summary of components Chapter 1 Festo P.BE-SEC-AC-HW-EN en 0007NH...
The SEC-AC-508 is closely related to the SEC-AC-305. Apart from the different mains voltage and the connection for an external braking resistor on the SEC-AC-508, the two devices are fully compatible.

Short cycle times, the control dynamics are similar to those of an analogue regulator. – Simple coupling to a higher-order controller, e.g. to a PLC. – The digital controller permits error-tolerant operation, i.e. faults are recognized in good time and regulated when possible. Festo P.BE-SEC-AC-HW-EN en 0007NH...
A watchdog timer and extensive monitoring functions ensure very reliable operation of the controller unit. The microcontroller and additional external hardware logic register error signals from the motor, from the rotary-angle evaluator and from the final output stage. Festo P.BE-SEC-AC-HW-EN en 0007NH...
An external power unit is not necessary for rated outputs in the dimensioning range. Connection is made via the single- phase 230 V AC network. EC-AC-508 These devices can be connected directly to the 400 V three- phase network. Festo P.BE-SEC-AC-HW-EN en 0007NH...
If in a special, seldom used application case, the output of the internal resistors is not sufficient, an additional external braking chopper with additional braking resistor must be connected to the intermediate circuit. Further information can be obtained from Festo. Festo P.BE-SEC-AC-HW-EN en 0007NH...
