Information About DC1-70U

The DC1-70U is a DC motor drive manufactured by Reliance Electric as part of the DC1 controller family. It is constructed as a fully enclosed NEMA-rated unit with integrated operator controls for direct motor management. The drive uses a full-wave, half-controlled armature configuration and a half-wave field supply to support unidirectional DC motor operation. It is typically installed in industrial environments where adjustable DC motor speed, overload protection, and flexible horsepower configuration are required.

Key Features:

  • DC1 series motor controller: Designed for variable speed control of DC motors.
  • 1–2 HP capability: Supports dual horsepower ratings via reconnectable jumper.
  • Single-phase input operation: Accepts standard industrial single-phase power.
  • Dual voltage compatibility: Operates on 115 or 230 VAC input power.
  • Integrated motor protection: Includes internal motor thermostat for overload protection.
  • Remote start/stop support: Allows external control integration.
  • Shunt-wound motor support: Uses half-wave field supply for DC field control.

The DC1-70U delivers the reliability and precision required for variable speed control of shunt-wound DC motors in industrial drive applications.
