3. Product information
3.1. Functional description
The compact controller can operate all RNA vibrating motors up to a load current of 6 amps. It is designed for individ-
ual installation right local to the vibrating drive and customized for RNA vibratory drive systems. The feed rate can be
precisely adjusted within the setting range via LED display.
Thanks to this new control technology the feed rate is kept largely constant even with fluctuating supply voltage.
The illuminated rocker switch in the front panel isolates the controller from power supply on both poles. For frequent
switching applications or when operating with a higher-level control system provision is made for enabling via a 16V-
30V DC signal. Moreover the current operating status of the controller is given by a "READY" or "ACTIVE" signal.
The integrated ramp function ensures time-controlled increase or decrease of the feed rate to setpoint after starting or
stopping. These times are set at 0.1 seconds and can be changed on the controller if necessary.
The controller can operate on both 230V and 115V supply which can be selected on an internal switch. All other con-
troller settings are made via the LED display.
3.2. Difference between SCU1000 and SCU2000
The SCU1000 has a permanently connected power cable with shockproof plug. Only the vibrating drive can be plug-
connected. The enabling signal and status signals are not led out.
The SCU2000, however, has all connections pluggable. This means: power supply, vibrating motor, enabling signal
and status signals can all be plug-connected.
If you need the enabling signal and/or the status signals of the SCU1000 these connections can be made accessible
by installation of an I/O retrofit kit. See chapter 8.
If you only need the enabling signal, direct connection is possible. Feed the required cable through a M8x1 gland into
the controller and connect it to the terminal block.
