MPI Full Wave 1 Channel ElectroPermanent Chuck Control Unit with U19 Controller EPCU-10DW

Description

The ElectroPermanent power supply and control units are designed to magnetize and demagnetize all types of ElectroPermanent magnetic devices, depending on factory settings. The magnetization cycles consist of one or several positive voltage pulses. The demagnetization cycles consist of a specific combination of alternating positive and negative voltage pulses.

EPCU control units are named by the number of out channels (i.e. number of electrical circuits to be energized in the magnetic clamping system): EPCU10: 1 channel, EPCU20: 2 channels, and EPCU40: 4 channels. MPI offers several control units, depending on size and the number of chucks. In the case of other magnetic device brands and models, consult MPI.

Features

• EPCU control units come in two different versions:
  • SW for single wave rectified output voltage
  • DW for double-wave (full wave) rectified output voltage
• Operational safety – the machine cannot be started up at a low holding force
• Safe magnetization level setting
• Effective demagnetization of the chuck and the workpiece for easy removal
• Control one or more magnets at the same time (depending on selected unit type)
• Models 10SW and 10DW use U19 Control style
• Magnetization and demagnetization cycles will start for all channels
