INTRODUCTION
•The 150 series enclosed controls are to be used with DC motors from 1/50 - 1 HP (90VDC) and 1/25 - 2 HP (180VDC)
•The 150 series models are available for dual voltage input requirements of 120/240 Vac. Dual voltage models, via
jumper setting, will output 90Vdc (using 120 or 240Vac supply) or 180Vdc (240Vac supply only)
•Model selections are available in two feature sets. The full featured 150D models include adjustable Accel & Decel,
LED indicators for Power ON & Current Limit, and a wide range of available options. The 150L models are built for
cost sensitive applications and OEM specials.
•The control is designed to operate DC Permanent Magnet, Shunt Wound (150D models only), and some Universal
(AC/DC) motors in the above horsepower ranges.
•Incoming AC voltage is converted to adjustable full wave rectified DC voltage to operate the DC motor. Also, a
full wave field voltage is provided for shunt wound motors on the 150D models.
•All models incorporate transient voltage protection, adjustable current limit, adjustable minimum and maximum
speeds, adjustable IR compensation and an inhibit function.
•All models come standard with fixed terminal blocks.
•Digital display with push button potentiometer and manual reversing models are available
CONTROL FEATURES
MIN SPEED (Minimum Speed) - Allows adjustment of the motor speed when the speedpot is set at minimum (CCW). This
permits the user to eliminate "Deadband" on the main speed control, for zero calibration. Clockwise rotation of "MIN" trimpot
increases speed.
MAX SPEED (Maximum Speed) - Allows the user to set the maximum output voltage and speed required for the application with
the speedpot at maximum rotation. Rotation of the "MAX" trimpot in the clockwise direction increases the maximum motor speed.
IR COMP (Speed Regulation) - This allows for adjustment of the output voltage gain needed to overcome speed losses during
increased motor load. The circuitry controls armature speed by changing the armature voltage to compensate for increased or
decreased motor loading. Clockwise rotation of the "IR COMP" trimpot will increase gain compensation.
CUR. LIM. (Current Limit) - Provides protection from excessive armature current by limiting the maximum continuous armature
current the control can provide. Current Limit should be set at 125% of rated motor torque (current) based on horsepower.
Clockwise rotation of the "CUR. LIM." trimpot increases the current that the control will provide.
INHIBIT TERMINAL PINS - Allows the user to (hard) quickly stop and start the control output via a SPST switch. Using the
inhibit inputs will bypass Accel and Decel ramps.
ACCEL & DECEL – 150D models have adjustable accel and decel with a setting range of 0.5-8 seconds for accel and 0.5-6 seconds
for decel. CW rotation increases the accel and decel ramp times. The 150L models come with fixed 0.5 second accel and decel.
INPUT & OUTPUT SELECTION PINS – All 153D and 153L models come standard with selectable input voltage pins for 120 or
240 Vac operation, and selectable output voltage pins for 90 or 180 Vdc motors. NOTE: 90Vdc outputs can be achieved from
120 or 240Vac inputs however a 180Vdc output can only be achieved from a 240Vac input supply.
POWER ON & INDICATOR – On 150 Enclosed models with optional -PB digital display.
TRANSIENT PROTECTION – All models come with MOV and X2 rated line capacitors for transient and noise protection.

SETUP AND WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
JP1 90/180 Vdc Set this jumper selection to 90 for 90Vdc motors or 180 for 180Vdc or 130Vdc motors.
JP2 120/240Vac Although a JP2 setting of 240V will allow the control to function adequately on lower 120V
inputs for most applications, it is recommended that JP2 be set for the appropriate incoming
AC line voltage. AC inputs of 108 through 140 Volts should use a jumper position of 120. AC
inputs of 208 through 240 should use a jumper position setting of 240. NOTE 1: NEVER USE
A JP2 120V SETTING FOR INPUT VOLTAGES ABOVE 140Vac. PERMANENT CONTROL
DAMAGE MAY OCCUR.
TB1-1, TB1-2 (AC or L) 120 Vac - Connect incoming hot AC1/L1 (black wire) to TB1-1 and neutral AC2/N
(AC or N) (white wire) to TB1-2. Connect ground (green wire) to CHASSIS of control.
240 Vac - Connect incoming hot AC1/L1 to terminal TB1-1 and incoming hot AC2/L2
to terminal TB1-2. Connect ground wire to CHASSIS of control.
TB1-3 (+Arm) Connect to PLUS (+) Armature wire on motor. 0-90 VDC for 120 Vac input or 0-90/180 VDC for
240 Vac input. See “SPECIFICATIONS” for output rating.
TB1-4 (-Arm) Connects to NEG (-) Armature wire on motor.
P5(Speedpot Hi) (Factory Wired) Connects to high side (white wire) of Speedpot (CW end). This is internal +12
volts. INPUT MUST NOT BE GROUNDED!
5
P6 (Speedpot Wiper) (Factory Wired) Connects to wiper (red wire) of Speedpot (center lead). For Start-Stop
applications requiring soft start and soft stop (Accel and Decel ramps), the connection between
this terminal and Speedpot Wiper can be opened and closed by a SPST switch. For Voltage
Follower applications, this INPUT MUST NOT BE GREATER THAN +12V MAXIMUM AND MUST
NOT BE GROUNDED!
P7 (Speedpot Lo) (Factory Wired) Connects to Low side (orange wire) of Speedpot (CCW end). This input is raised
and lowered by the MIN trimpot. Electronic speed input (voltage follower) may be referenced to
Speedpot LO if the MIN trimpot adjustments are to be active. Otherwise, inputs may be
referenced to -ARM, which will bypass the MIN trimpot. INPUT MUST NOT BE GROUNDED!
P8 (+Field) DO NOT use for Permanent Magnet Motor. This supplies +Field voltage for a SHUNT WOUND
(150D Models ONLY) MOTOR. For motors with dual voltage field (ie. 50/100V or 100/200V), make certain highest value is connected.
P9 (-Field) Connects to Negative (-) Field wire of a SHUNT WOUND MOTOR. This connection is also circuit
(150D Models ONLY) common but must never be connected to earth or chassis gnd. Doing so will result in damageto the control.
P13 (Inhibit Input) Connecting this input to the Inhibit Common pin will result in a fast stop. Opening this
connection will result in a quick acceleration of the motor to the wiper input set point.
Stopping and starting via the Inhibit pins bypasses all accel and decel ramps.
P14 (Inhibit Connecting this input to the Inhibit pin willl result in a fast stop. Opening this connection
Common) will result in a quick acceleration of the motor to the wiper input set point. Stopping and
starting via the Inhibit pins bypasses all accel and decel ramps.
Warning:
1. Be sure the control housing is properly grounded.
2. Armature connections must not be switched or broken while the control is on. Serious control damage may result.
3. For non-speedpot applications, the input connection to the LO, WIPER, and HI terminals must not be grounded!
Serious control damage may result from a grounded input.
1. Assurez-vous que le coffrage du système de commande est correctement mis à la terre.
2. Les raccordements ARM ne doivent pas être commutés ou interrompus pendant que la commande est sazous ten
sion. De sérieux dégâts peuvent en découler.
3. Pour les applications sans potentiomètre : les connexions d’entrée vers les fils Lo-Curseur-Hi ne doivent pas être
mises à la terre. Une entrée mise à la terre peut gravement endommager la commande.
Do not attempt to perform Hi-pot test across AC lines with control in circuit.
This will result in immediate or long term damage to the control.
N’essayez pas d’effectuer d’essai diélectrique à travers les lignes CA lorsque la commande
est dans le circuit. La commande sera immédiatement et irrémédiablement endommagée.

Use of the Inhibit input bypasses the Accel and Decel ramps. Start/Stop
actions via the Wiper input signal (P6) will result in a soft Start/Stop.
Refer to the diagrams below for several methods of starting and stopping
that may meet you application requirements.

the Wiper input signal will give you a
“soft” Start/Stop (Closed = Run).
Using a SPST switch connected to

you “hard” Start/Stop (Open = Run).
Using a DPDT (On-None-On) switch
connected to (P13) inhibit and P6

Digital Push Button Potentiometer with power on indiactor Factory Installed Only
This is a digital push button potentiometer that replaces the traditional mechanical rotary potentiometer (speed pot). Like the
standard speed pot that operates from a 0-10 dial, the digital push button potentiometer operates from 0.0-100.0% set point
that is adjusted via the front panel up and down arrow push buttons. 0.0 will always represent what the min trimpot control
setting is and 100.0 will always represent the max trimpot setting. The display adjustment between those two points will always
be a linear scale between the min and max settings of the control.

SPEED CONTROL
Setting Up and Operating the -PB Option
Set up of a control with the -PB option is accomplished in the same manor as a standard control using the mechanical speed
pot except the display setting replaces the dial position setting of the speed pot. A 0.0 display setting is equivalent to a full
CCW or 0 dial position setting, and a 100.0 display setting is equivalent to a full CW or 10 dial position setting. With that in
mind, follow the CONTROL START-UP and the TRIMPOT ADJUSTMENT PROCEEDURE sections of this manual for proper
setup and tuning of the control for your application.
Optional Display Startup Setting
The -PB option has one parameter setting that can be changed depending on the end use application. The factory default is for
the display to always start at a min setting of 0.0 at power up. This is for safety reasons so the motor doesn't start running after
a power up. If you want the control to always return to the last user setting then follow this setup instruction.
1) With power applied press and hold the ENTER key until the display shows P0. Then release.
2) Press the up arrow until you reach P18.
3) Press and release the ENTER key and the display should display a 1 if the parameter is still at factory default.
4) Use the up and down arrows to select 1 if you want the control display to reset to 0.0 at power up, or 2 if you want the
display to always return to the last set point at power up.
5) Press and release the ENTER key to return to P18 on the display.
6) Press the down arrow until you reach P0.
7) Press and release the ENTER key to return to your display set point.

Manual Forward-Off-Reverse Switch Factory Installed Only
Permits reversing of the motor. This is accomplished using a 4PDT anti-plug reverse center blocked switch. When switching
between the forward/reverse positions, a mechanically blocked center position protects against plug reversing the motor by not
allowing the switch to transition past the center off position until pressure is removed from the toggle.
Warning:
THE MOTOR MUST COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE CHANGING DIRECTIONS. IF THE MOTOR DOES
NOT COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE MOTOR, CONTROLLER, OR SWITCH MAY

NOTE 1: This option is factory installed only.
NOTE 2: Use of this option eliminates the availability of the + and – field pins for use with DC Shunt Wound Motors.
NOTE 3: This option changes the function of the cover switch to 'Auto-Off-Manual', where Auto is following input
signal for motor speed, Off is AC power off to the control, and Manual is motor speed set by pot / digi-pot in cover.
This option card allows for the use of either a grounded or non-grounded remote DC signal such as 0 to 5 through
0 to 250Vdc, 4-20mA current, or a remote speed pot. The DC input signal type can be selected for voltage (Vin) or
current (4-20mA) via the JP2 jumper clip. There is a Hi/Lo range jumper selection that should be set to the (Lo) setting
when using a 4-20mA signal, or voltage ranges of 0-5 through 0-25Vdc. When using voltage ranges of 0-25 through
0-250 this jumper must be set to (Hi). The GAIN trimpot is used to set full linear output in reference to the input signal
range. The output of this remote signal isolation board is a linear signal that is proportional to the remote input signal
being supplied.

2. Preset GAIN pot on the remote signal board fully CCW.
3. Place the JP2 jumper clip in the proper position based on the input signal being used.
4. Place the P4 jumper clip in the (LO) position for 4-20mA signals or voltage signals less than 25Vdc. Place the P4 jumper
clip in the (HI) position for voltage signals greater than 25Vdc. (NOTE: Never exceed input signals greater than 250Vdc)
5. Make sure all connections and jumper settings are properly made per the hookup connection diagram and then apply AC
power to the controller.
6. Set the remote input signal to its lowest setting. Adjust the MIN trimpot to deadband (the point just before an increase
causes an output).
7. Apply the maximum remote input signal. Motor should start to run. Adjust the GAIN pot CW until no further increase in control output voltage occurs and then decrease the gain pot slowly until output voltage to the motor drops approximately 5Vdc.
8. Set the MAX trimpot on the control to the correct motor voltage.
9. Some interaction between trimpots may occur. Recheck the Min trimpot setting and repeat steps 6 through 8 as needed.
