5211
CURRENT REGULATED POWER SUPPLY
1.0

INTRODUCTION

The 5211 is a 0-1A current-regulated 24 VDC power supply and display that is designed for
use with Magtrol's Hysteresis Brakes and Clutches. It features a 10-turn current adjustment
potentiometer and 3 selectable current ranges: 200 mA, 500 mA, and 1 000 mA. A convenient
built-in panel meter displays the braking current being applied.
The 5211 is designed as a closed-loop power supply to provide smooth application of
current throughout an entire range up to a maximum set point. By utilizing regulated current,
fluctuations in brake torque caused by temperature changes within the brake coil are
eliminated. Braking current can be controlled manually from the front panel using the 10-turn
potentiometer. Alternatively, if remote operation is required, the 5211 can be controlled by
an external source using the 0-5 VDC control input located on the rear panel.
