P5 Series Positional Servodrive Assembly

The P5 positional servodrive incorporates a potentiometer which is connected to the output shaft to provide an analogue reference signal proportional to output shaft position.

A variety of potentiometer options are available to provide the choice of single or multi-turn operation. Although conforming to the standard panel mount design, the feedback potentiometers utilised in P5 positional servodrives have a reinforced internal construction to provide long life in motor driven applications.

The feedback potentiometer is coupled directly to the servodrive’s output shaft via a backlash-free coupling which incorporates a friction clutch to protect the potentiometer against an overtravel condition when an option fitted with end stops is specified.

P5 series Servodrives may be specified with any of the gear ratios. Mclennan holds stock of various configurations in the UK for immediate delivery.
