DC drives provide variable speed control for DC motors, ideal for applications requiring low speed control, torque and power. Speed adjustment is simple, typically using a potentiometer or analog input signal. IronHorse DC drives are available with either DC or AC input voltage input, and in open frame or NEMA 4/12 or 4X enclosed versions.
