Flexible system integration
Quantum MP is a modern packaged DC drive that has unparalleled flexibility through the integration of Control Techniques' AC control platform on a DC drive. The Quantum MP inherits system integration flexibility such as:
Two open SM Option Module slots for automation control, I/O, feedback devices and communications
Smartcard for PLC program and parameter storage
Software tools for easy configuration and monitoring
Additional features include:
Patented (pending) galvanic isolation protects control circuits against poor quality industrial power supplies and high voltage circuitry
Powerful onboard intelligence fine-tunes the drive’s functionality to the application and allows the removal of troublesome analog control circuits
Fieldbus options include Ethernet, Profibus and DeviceNet allowing Quantum MP to be integrated within an automation system
CTSoft, a windows-based software package, provides an intuitive environment for configuring the drive's functionality
Quantum MP integrates closely with Control Techniques AC drives using CTNet drive-to-drive communications
Technology for reliability and performance
Quantum MP takes a step forward in performance, robustness and reliability:
High performance motor control:
32-bit microprocessor
35μs current sampling time
Speed controller and ramps update 250μs
Autotune features for armature, field current loops and speed loop
Galvanic isolation (patent pending) between power and control protects the control circuits and other equipment connected to the drive from the high voltages on the power circuit. This feature is unique on DC drives
Protection system against poor industrial power supplies and lightning strikes
