a/c MOTOR CONTROL

[Zilvis1972]

Hi Guys,

Looking for the advise, what is the best and cheapest DAQ to control the speed of A/C motor. I have NI9482 to switch the motor on or off.

Any help appreciated

Thanks

Hi Zilvinas,

I think the "best" would be determined by a number of factors. I believe the best option would be to actually contact your local NI office and they can direct you towards the most ideal solution. You can contact NI using the 'Contact Us' link at the bottom of this page.

Best Regards,

There are different kinds of AC motors, what type is it?

Hi Henrik,

Thanks for your replay,

See attached, this is the motor I would like to control.

Your suggested circuit for the sensor works fine. Thanks for that.

Thanks for your help, much appreciated

No idea for that type of motor..  well, a FU converter, but that's far from cheap 😉

Take care if you lower the fan speed to much,  to not overheat the motor.

If a suggested solution works , you can mark it as solution 😉
