Almega Traction

The combination of using our Almega processor with the Magnetek HPV600 drive has worked well on many installations using serial coms communication between the drive and our processor. The processor also connects directly to our serial indicator and speech module providing full programmability of up to 48 floors. The direct serial communication to motor drives (VVVF) provides better reliability, control and a wealth of information can be accessed from the drive for diagnosis / monitoring purposes.

Windows application software is available to allow the user to change parameters and settings to suit the lift installation. The software also provides the user with diagnostic tools for viewing detailed information regarding the status of the lift and motor drive
