Control the speed of a DC motor using a potentiometer or a 0-5V analog signal. This PWM motor controller runs cool while handling up to 15 amps of continuous current. It can also be used as a low voltage light dimmer for halogen lamps, or for controlling heaters and irons.
Note: This board will be a hard-configured version of the SPD-815, which is a drop-in replacement for the SPD-2115B-ES.
The DIP switches are not active as the controller is hardwired to work as the SPD-2115B-ES without user configuration.
For a nominal cost savings, choose the SPD-815 controller instead. The 815 provides user-selectable analog/digital and soft-start options all in one board.
Features:
- Potentiometer or 0-5V control signal
- Automatic Soft-Start reduces stress on mechanics and power supplies.
- Digital input filtering allows smooth control even with noisy inputs
- Logic Controller Enable input
- High efficiency MOSFET design for cool operation
Specifications:
- 15 Amps continuous current
- 5.5 - 36 VDC operation
- PWM Range: 0% - 100%
- Single direction (no reverse)
Connections:
- Terminal blocks for signal and power connections

Application Notes:
When choosing a controller based on your input voltage requirements,
please note that a fully charged 12V nominal lead-acid battery can reach 14 volts.
Please check to ensure that the battery pack voltage does not ever exceed the absolute
maximum rated voltage of the motor controller.
Dimensions:
2.0 x 2.7 x 0.7 inches tall.
