(torque and velocity) and troubleshooting procedures for the brush DynaDrive 1525-BRS. Description The DynaDrive 1525-BRS supplies 15 amps continuous current and 25 amps peak current at 164 VDC for a total of 2460 watts of continuous power. The DynaDrive is a current source type PWM amplifier.
Weight 2.4 lbs Ambient Temperature – Operating 0 °C to 50 °C Shutdown Temperature 80 °C at heat sink Relative Humidity 5 - 95% non-condensing Table 1: Technical Specifications for DynaDrive 815 – BR-3 DynaDrive 1525-BRS - User Guide Page...

3. Installation Matching the DynoDrive to the Motor The factory preset potentiometer settings of the DynaDrive 1525-BRS may need to be adjusted to match the continuous current rating of your motor. To accomplish this, find the continuous current rating of the motor to be used and adjust the RMS, PEAK CURR LIMIT and SIGNAL pot per Table 2 below.
Current monitor output. +/- 4 VDC out equals approx. +/- 25 CURR MONITOR OUT amps. Normally pulled up to +12 volts thru a 10 K resistor. Will sink 10 FAULT OUTPUT mA max to ground when a fault occurs. COMMON See pin 3 above. DynaDrive 1525-BRS - User Guide Page...

The RMS potentiometer is for changing the level of the RMS current. The amplifier is capable of providing maximum RMS current when fully CW. The minimum current is approximately 0 amps when fully CCW. DynaDrive 1525-BRS - User Guide Page...
Torque Mode 4.1.1 Torque Mode – Factory Potentiometer Settings The DynaDrive 1525-BRS is shipped in the torque mode by installing the torque mode jumper at J3 and presetting the potentiometers for the torque mode. The factory potentiometer settings for the torque mode are as follows: (See ADJUSTMENTS section for a more complete description of the potentiometer functions).
Operational Modes 4.1.2 Torque Mode - Setup The factory preset potentiometer settings are adjusted for the torque mode operation. To set up and run the DynaDrive 1525-BRS in the torque mode, perform the following: 1. Turn power off. 2. Remove J1.
To match the motor to the DynaDrive 1525-BRS, set the RMS and SIGNAL pots per Table 2. Set the PEAK CURR LIMIT pot to full CCW. Set the remaining pots per Table 4 below. Now perform the Velocity Mode Setup procedure on the next page.
Operational Modes 4.2.2 Velocity Mode- Setup To set up and run the DynaDrive 1525-BRS in the Velocity mode, perform the following: 1. Turn power off. 2. Remove J1. 3. Check all wiring connections. Verify that the J3 jumper is removed.
• Over temperature - The heat sink has exceeded 80 °C. An over temperature condition may exist for the following reasons: 1. Insufficient airflow across the heat sink. 2. Ambient cabinet temperature too high. DynaDrive 1525-BRS - User Guide Page...
