ICON 3 IGBT-Controller

ICON 3 IGBT-Controller

A Solid State DC Motor Controller based on the IGBT Power.
Semiconductor Technology, utilizing Microprocessor Control Technology to control the main IGBT power semiconductor.

The ICON 3 contains a unique CAN BUS Data Communication feature for improving control reliability.

ADVANTAGES

  • Upgradable to incorporate a PROXIMITY DETECTION SYSTEM (PDS).
  • Full remote capabilities for the “New Era” front driven train concept.

The simplified modular concept now comprises a programmable control computer (Logic), IGBT Power Module, a new generation “Pot-block” drivers control handle, a new generation Battery Electric “Driver Interface”, Mechanical Brake Interface and Auto Light Switching Interface.

SANS 1809:2012 compliant (Fail-safe underground mine locomotive control systems).
