Johnson
Electric today announced the first of many new electronically
commutated (EC) motors that are under development. This new brushless DC
motor product line is designed for high efficiency, long life and
precision détente torque performance in critical HVAC valve and damper
control applications. http://www.johnsonmotor.com
“This motor family’s détente torque reliability makes it
perfect for safety critical applications”
The HVAC
valve motor product line comes in two versions, low détente torque
and high détente torque in three packages, 24mm, 30mm and 38mm diameter.
The low détente torque motors are for spring-return applications, while
the high détente torque versions are for non-spring return applications.
A key feature of this product line is highly stable détente torque over
time, even in a high temperature and high humidity environment. This
motor performance level is achieved by an innovative magnetic design and
a unique mechanical structure utilizing precision components throughout.
“This motor product line is designed to meet the highest requirements of
the leading players in the building automation and HVAC industries,”
said Jim Dick, Johnson Electric’s senior vice president of Strategic
Marketing. “This motor family’s détente torque reliability makes it
perfect for safety critical applications,” he added.
The product line will bear a new Johnson Electric symbol to indicate it
is an Eco motion solution. The symbol on the green leaf is the Greek
letter Eta, meaning efficiency, enclosed by a circle to represent motion.
