Re: [EVDL] Controller hunt: In the market for a Curtis 1231C-860 replacement

A ZEVA 1000A controller is around USD$1300 if you get a display as well:
http://www.zeva.com.au/index.php?product=121

That's the one I use on my conversion, after my 1231C died

The 600A controller is cheaper, I just prefer the additional power

[EVDL] Controller hunt: In the market for a Curtis 1231C-860 replacement

2017-01-01 Thread brucedp5 via EV
Jay's conversion
http://www.evalbum.com/3693
 is about the same weight as my former S-10 Blazer EV. Over time I blew two
Curtis (1221x vintage) controllers. I wanted a more robust controller, one
that would not burn up, and catch fire (Curtis controllers had a nickname of
cursit because of their nasty habit of dying).

Any EV parts company I mention, I am not recommending, just using their site
as an example.

New Curtis controller will be in the $2000 price range.
The evwest site shows a Soliton Jr controller $1900
http://www.evwest.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=1_id=48

Here is the company's spec page:
http://www.evnetics.com/evnetics-products/soliton-jr/


Usually it is our sys admin that recommends that people look at:
evtradinpost.com
 specifically their controller section:
http://www.evtradinpost.com/list/30

 which shows:
Kelly KDH14801E -- price reduced$ 600.00
Kelly KDH14801E motor controller w/regenerative braking. Designed for
permanent magnet DC motor, nominally 144 V, but due to regen can handle up
to 180 V on the battery side. Essentially new, briefly wired in to my car
but never permanently mounted. Didn't physically fit well, and my motor then
failed. Accepts separate 0-5 V input signals for throttle and regen control.
I can supply one or two Hall-effect throttle units for additional cost.
Includes connectors, precharge resistor. See Kelly site for specs.


The owner was using it on a permanent magnet motor. So a search
https://www.google.com/search?q=Kelly+KDH14801E

I found a page that states the same controller will work on Jay's 9" ADC
motor:
