Compact DC Drive Package

The Quantum III delivers a DC drive package that
integrates the intelligence of the Mentor II with a
space saving design that incorporates many accessories
typically required in the North American market.

Quantum III drives are ready to install and run DC
motors. Like the Mentor II, they are easily configurable
to control motor speed, voltage or current using
standard internal settings. Set-up is convenient using
the drive keypad, or MentorSoft, a Windows based
drive configuration tool. These drives have powerful
diagnostic and communication abilities.
The simple addition of the MD29 applications card
enables users to incorporate custom or proprietary
process control application programs to their drive.
The Quantum III also provides extensive communication
protocol options.

Quantum III

The powerful microprocessor based Mentor is the
central component of the Quantum package. The
integrated design includes fuses, a DC loop contactor,
and 115 VAC interface logic control, making it an
ideal choice for end users with space constraints. The
Quantum III offers a compact DC package solution.
You’ll also find the Quantum III on OEM equipment and
integrated systems.
