INTRODUCTION
The 530B Series is a high performance, dual voltage versatile DC motor control which provides a wide range of standard features,
with many options that extend its capabilities. The 530B Series will operate 1/8 through 1.0 horsepower at 115VAC input, and 1/
4 through 2.0 horsepower at 230VAC input. A chassis only model is available to operate a 1.5 horsepower motor at 115VAC input,
or 3.0 horsepower at 230VAC input. Reference “Basic Model Selection” guide.
The 530B Series consists of three basic types:
C = Chassis mounted, no enclosure, no power relay's.
RC = Chassis mounted, no enclosure, with power relay's.
RE = Plastic enclosure with power relay's - Nema 4/12 standard.
The 530B Series is designed for Permanent Magnet, Shunt Wound, and some Universal Series (AC/DC) motors in the above
horsepower ranges. The 530B Series incorporates transient voltage protection with adjustable Current Limit and AC fuses for
protection. Minimum and Maximum speeds are easily adjusted by trimpots, as is the I.R. Compensation. Acceleration and
Deceleration are fully adjustable via individual trimpots.
COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q. Can I run two or more motors from the same drive?
A. Not recommended. The I.R. Compensation (regulation) and Current Limit circuits would have difficulty sensing the different
load on each motor.
Q. Can I change the horsepower of my motor and still use the same control?
A. Yes, provided you do not deviate outside the horsepower range for the voltage you are using. The trimpots would need
readjustment; see “Trimpot Chart” for approximate settings.
Q. Can I use the 530B Series as a Current Follower?
A. Yes, there is a field installable -5 or -7 option shown in "Options" section.
Q. Can I use the 530B Series on Tachometer feedback?
A. Yes, see +Tach (P2-9) under “Terminal Strip Wiring - P2”.
Q. Can I use the Stop (P2-11), Start (P2-13), and Common (P2-12) to stop-start the control on the “C” chassis version?
A. No. Terminals P2-11, P2-12, and P2-13 are only active on the relay versions; “RE” and “RC”. These terminals are
non-operative on the “C” version.
Q. Can the 530B Series be used as a Voltage or Tachometer Follower?
A. Yes. The voltage must be ungrounded and no more than +12 VDC (See “Terminal Strip Wiring” for proper hook-up).
Q. How would I proceed to stop/start the 530B Series with my own relay?
A. You can use the contact of your relay in place of the AMP REF to REV 1 (P2-2 to P2-7) jumper wire. Since this is a low
level signal (12 volts at 2mA), you must use a logic type relay (preferably gold contacts). This cannot be done on controls
using some options. Consult your Dart Representative if options are involved.
Q. Why is a jumper wire between AMP REF (P2-2) and REV 1 (P2-7) needed on drives with no options?
A. REV 1 (P2-7) and REV 2 (P2-8) are two identical stop inputs. One of these must be held low (to Amp Ref P2-2) for the control
to run. If the drive has no options, this must be jumpered to satisfy the “OR” gate. This requirement is satisfied by some
options. For these options, a connection must be made to these terminals. Instead of a jumper wire, the option is wired
to these terminals. (See “Jumper Wire Selection”).

2. The 530B Series chassis can be used as a template.
3. Use standard hardware to mount.
4. For the “RE” version ONLY: Two 7/8" diameter holes are provided in one endplate to facilitate wiring. This allows for easy
connection of 1/2" conduit.
NOTE: For enclosed models using 1 h.p. 90V or 2 h.p. 180V motors, the control MUST be mounted vertically.
CAUTION:
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO PERFORM HI-POT TEST ACROSS AC LINES WITH THE CONTROL IN CIRCUIT.
THIS WILL RESULT IN IMMEDIATE OR LONG TERM DAMAGE TO THE CONTROL.
WIRING PROCEDURE
1. Size all wires which carry armature or line current to handle currents AS SPECIFIED BY NATIONAL, STATE, AND/OR LOCAL
CODES. All other wires may be # 20AWG or smaller as permitted by local code.
2. Control wire (Pot, Tach, etc.) should be separated from all the Armature, Field (if Shunt Wound), and the AC wires when routed
in conduits or in wire trays. The enclosed version has two holes on one endplate for this purpose.

P2-4
P2-5
(OVER CURRENT OUT) - Can be used to signal that the control is in current limit. It can also signal other devices or alarms.
This is a low level logic signal which goes “high” when the current limit amplifier is in current limit. The logic of this control
is +12 volts, while the output at this terminal is approximately 1.5 volts through a 1000Ω resistor when in Current Limit.
(AMP REF) - This is the common point of the logic. It is used as common with OVER CURRENT OUT (P2-1), +TACH (P2-
9), REV 1 (P2-7), REV 2 (P2-8), and WIPER (P2-4). NOTE: Never connect this terminal to earth ground !! Serious damage
and injury may result !! This terminal is electrically the same point as -ARM (P1-5).
(SPEEDPOT LO) - Connects to the low side (orange wire) of the 5K Speedpot (normally the CCW end). This input is raised
and lowered by the MIN trimpot. Electronic speed input voltage (voltage follower) may be referenced to Speedpot LO if
INPUT MUST NOT BE GROUNDED !
CAUTION FOR VOLTAGE FOLLOWER APPLICATIONS:
THE INPUT CONNECTION TO THE SPEEDPOT MUST NOT BE GROUNDED !!
SERIOUS DAMAGE TO THE CONTROL MAY RESULT FROM A GROUNDED INPUT.
(SPEEDPOT WIPER) - Connects to the wiper (red wire) of the Speedpot (center lead). Use this input for the plus (+) side
of voltage follower operation or tach follower. The minus (-) side connects to AMP REF (P2-2).

(REV 1) - REV 1 and REV 2 are identical quick stop inputs. One of them must be held low (to AMP REF) before the control
will operate. The two are diode separated to form an “OR” gate. Since -ARM (P1-5) is also low in the system, these two
inputs can be wired to the motor side of a reversing switch or relay. During the period of switching, neither input will be
low, which will instantly return the set speed to zero and reset the acceleration ramp.
P2-8
P2-9
(REV 2) - Identical to REV 1 (P2-7).
(+TACH) - Connect +Tach from a DC tachometer for tachometer feedback. The minus (-) lead from the tachometer goes
to AMP REF (P2-2). Output voltage from the tachometer at full speed can range from 6 to 12 volts. The scale is corrected
using the JU3 jumper selectable setting of 3V/7V per 1000 RPM and the MAX speed trimpot. A 3 volt per 1000 RPM OR
7 volt per 1000 RPM tachometer should be used.
P2-10
P2-11
(PILOT LIGHT) - Connecting point for on-off neon indicator lamp. The remaining lead will be connected to P2-11.
(STOP) - Install one or more normally closed stop switches (in series) between STOP (P2-11) and COMMON (P2-12).
Not active on “C” version.
P2-12
P2-13
(COMMON) - Mid point of Start-Stop switches. Not active on “C” version.

INITIAL START UP
1. Check to see that the 115/230 VAC selection switch is set for the desired input voltage.
2. Recheck all wiring. Accidental grounds, loose or pinched wires on armature or speed potentiometer wires may damage the
control when power is applied.
3. See “ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE” and observe the
4. Preset trimpots for your horsepower by using the “TRIMPOT CHART”. NOTE: Options may change the trimpot setting from
this chart. If your control has an option, be sure to carefully read the section in “OPTIONS” that pertains to your option.
5. Turn speed potentiometer to zero (fully CCW).
6. Turn power on and advance speedpot while observing motor.
7. If motor rotation is incorrect, turn power off at external disconnect and reverse the +ARM and -ARM connections.
8. If operation is satisfactory, no re-adjustments are needed.
9. If instability or surging is observed, or if maximum speed is higher than desired, proceed to “ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE”.
10. For other problems, see section “IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY”.
WHEN MAKING AN ADJUSTMENT, ALWAYS USE A SCREWDRIVER WITH AN INSULATED SHAFT TO AVOID THE
SHORT CIRCUITING OF PC BOARD COMPONENTS. WHENEVER THE CONTROL COVER IS REMOVED, IT MUST BE
SUPPORTED TO AVOID ACCIDENTAL CONTACT BETWEEN CONTROL CHASSIS AND LIVE COVER COMPONENTS.
WARNINGS pertaining to cover removal for adjustments.
WARNING:
TRIMPOT ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURE
Four adjustments (MIN., MAX., I.R. COMP., and CUR. LIM.) are checked at the factory using a typical motor. Use the “TRIMPOT
CHART” to adjust the trimpots to the approximate setting for your horsepower. The other two adjustments (ACCEL and DECEL),
are the Acceleration and Deceleration adjustments and should be set for your particular application requirements. The “TRIMPOT
CHART” is approximate and is valid when using a speedpot or a 0 to 12VDC input signal to control the speed. Operation of the control
beyond ±10% of normal line voltage is not recommended and could result in readjustments. These settings are permanent; periodic
readjustment is normally not needed. (NOTE: Use only an ungrounded voltmeter).
MAX.
MIN.
I.R. COMP.
Sets maximum motor speed when speedpot is at 100% CW rotation. Clockwise rotation increases maximum
motor speed.
1) Turn drive power OFF!
2) Connect a DC voltmeter; plus to +ARM and minus to -ARM.
3) Set meter voltage range for either 90 VDC or 180 VDC.
4) With no load on the motor, adjust the MAX trimpot to the rated armature voltage as seen on the meter.
NOTE: A tachometer or strobe may be used in place of a meter. Follow the above steps, but adjust the MAX trimpot
to the rated motor base speed, indicated by tach or strobe.
Sets minimum motor voltage when Speedpot is set at zero. Clockwise rotation of the MIN. trimpot will increase the minimum motor voltage.
1) Set Speedpot to zero (fully CCW).
2) With no load on the motor, adjust the MIN trimpot clockwise until the motor starts to rotate.
3) Slowly back off the trimpot in the CCW direction until the motor stops.
NOTE: If motor rotation is desired at zero Speedpot setting, adjust the MIN trimpot clockwise until the desired
minimum speed is reached.
Provides a means of improving speed regulation in the armature feedback mode. If a change in motor speed
during a load change is of no concern, rotate this trimpot fully CCW.
1) Set speedpot at 50%.
2) Observe motor speed during a no load condition.
3) Apply a full load to the motor.
4) Adjust the I.R. COMP. trimpot clockwise (while the load is applied) until the no load motor speed is obtained.
7
(Adjustment procedure continued)
(Adjustment procedure continued)
CUR. LIM.
Limits DC motor armature current (torque) to prevent damage to the motor or control. The current limit is
set for 125% of the rated motor current. Clockwise rotation of this trimpot increases the armature current
(or torque produced).
1) Turn drive power OFF!
2) Connect a DC Ammeter in series with the +ARM line (between +A on motor and +ARM on the control). Preset the
current limit trimpot CCW.
3) Turn power on and set speedpot to 50%.
4) Increase the motor load until the motor stalls (zero RPM).
5) Set CUR. LIM. trimpot by adjusting CW to 125% of the rated motor armature current (see “TRIMPOT CHART”).
ACCEL
DECEL
Allows adjustment of acceleration by user.
1) Clockwise trimpot rotation increases length of acceleration time needed for the control to reach full speed.
Allows adjustment of deceleration by user.
1) Clockwise trimpot rotation increases length of deceleration time needed for the control to reach zero speed.

JU2 JUMPER WIRE SELECTION CHART
NOTE: Jumper wires may be required on terminal strip P2 for the control to operate (refer to jumper chart below).
As explained in the “COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS” section, REV 1 (P2-7) and REV 2 (P2-8) are both stop inputs.
One of
these inputs must be held low to AMP REF (P2-2) for the control to operate. Jumpering is necessary between AMP REF and REV
1 or REV 2 to satisfy the “OR” gate. An option board may be installed on the control satisfying the “OR” gate. This jumper (between
P2-2 and P2-7) is called JU2. For inhibiting with soft start and fast stop, the JU2 jumper may be replaced by a SPST switch.

CONTROL MODIFICATIONS
TWO SPEED OPERATION
Two pot operation is done using two 10KΩ
speed potentiometers in parallel (both HI’s
to P2-5, both LO’s to P2-3). The WIPER is
switched using a SPDT switch.

A DPDT switch is used to inhibit the control and to connect the
DBR. Typical values for the DBR (dynamic brake resistor) are 5
for 115V, 10 for 230V (both 35Ω to 50Ω). Note that motor horsepower, inertia, and cycle
time effect sizing of the
DBR.

The -36M / -38M option automatically
“brakes” to zero speed before reversing.
The SPDT center-off switch is used to
select direction. When the direction is
A1
reversed, relays K1, K2, and K3 connect
the dynamic brake resistor to the armature. The motor “brakes” and at zero
A2
speed the relays reverse the armature
leads, causing the motor to rotate in the
opposite direction. When the switch is in
the center (STOP) position, the motor
armature is connected to the dynamic
brake resistor.
Notes: The start-stop switch is customer
provided on the “RC” version (see Hookup Diagrams for switch wiring). The “RE”
version requires a special cover that
must be ordered for field installed -36M
or -38M options. The Dynamic Brake
Resistor is mounted accordingly per
model (see above chart for placement).
VERY IMPORTANT:
DO NOT USE JU2 JUMPER WIRE with
this option. WHEN RETROFITTING,
