Notice: For the buyer without CONTROLLER APPLYING EXPERIENCE, please consult your cart/motor dealer and read carefully the CURTIS 1214/15/19-8 Manual before making the purchase.

Notice: By default, we will deliver the controller with default setting of 48V / 500A / 0-5kΩ. For better applying the controller to your system, the buyer should confirm with the seller the battery system voltage and the throttle type (0-5kΩ, 5k-0Ω or 0 – 5V, etc). If you need to modify any controller parameter, please leave us a message while you make the purchase. There is no extra cost for reprogramming the controller.

Overview:

CURTIS had stopped the production of 1215-8307.

This current 1215-8307 DC Series Motor controller is a product of a Chinese manufacturer. With same dimensions and functions of the original products, this 1215-8307 can also be programmed by CURTIS Model 1313-4401 Handheld Programmer or CURTIS 1314 PC programming station.

We offer 12-month warranty for item sold, counting from the date of delivery.

Features Include:

• Power MOSFET design, providing
  • infinitely variable drive and plug brake control
  • silent high-frequency operation
  • high efficiency (for reduced motor and battery losses)
• Overvoltage and undervoltage protection
• Thermal protection/compensation circuitry that provides undertemperature cutback, constant current limit over operating range, and linear rollback in overtemperature—thus preventing sudden power loss regardless of thermal conditions
• Diagnostic and test information for the controller—and other system components—readily available through both an on-board LED and the optional handheld programmer
• Meets or exceeds EEC fault detect requirements, with circuitry and software to detect faults in the throttle circuit, MOSFET drive circuits, MOSFET output, contactor drivers, and contactors
• Programmable input sequencing options include several combinations of neutral start and static return to off (SRO)
• Arcless contactor switching with microprocessor-controlled contactor sequencing
• Smooth, controlled plug braking—with either variable (throttledependent) or fixed plug current limit
• Neutral braking option provides automatic plug braking in neutral
• MultiMode™ input selects between two different operating modes, thus allowing optimization of vehicle characteristics for different driving conditions
• Emergency reverse (belly button switch) provides full function with a single input
• Anti-rollback (ramp start) provides full power for starting on ramps
• Simple contactor and switch wiring, with coil drivers monitored for shorts and open circuits—thus ensuring fail-safe operation
• Flexible throttle circuitry accommodates a variety of throttle types: 5kΩ–0, 0–5kΩ, 0–5V, 0–10V, inductive, Hall, etc.
• Programmable “ramp shape” (static throttle map) provides flexibility in selecting throttle response feel
• Sealed package, providing environmental protection
• Power connections made by tin-plated solid copper busses, with a polarized Molex connector for control signals
• Easily programmable through the CURTIS Model 1313-4401 Handheld Programmer or 1314 PC Programming Station.
• Rugged anodized aluminum extruded housing meets IP65 environmental sealing standards for use in harsh environments.
