1/ AL-4147-2

For better EMI performance and easier integration, the AL-4147-2 provides high ground isolation between its input
signal circuitry, control circuit and power stage. It also incorporates a highly modular design allowing for easy
maintainability. This model is suited to applications requiring remote separation of the PCU.

2/AL-4107-2-6A Models

These models represent ORBIT/FR’s third-generation of heavy duty PCUs incorporating state-of-the-art control
engineering technology, including four-quadrant Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) techniques and sophisticated,
fail-safe protective circuitry. They offer precision DC servo control and superior acceleration and deceleration
profi les.
