Up for auction is a used DC motor controller for NEV’s (Neighborhood Electric Vehicles).  It has been tested and appears to be fully functional.  This unit is a prototype that was originally designed to run high voltage NEV's (96 to 250 volt).  Because this unit is a prototype, it is being sold as-is, with no support from the manufacturer.  It has been used several times over the past few months for testing electric vehicle motors. This unit was originally designed for high voltage golf cars, small cars, ATVs, and most other high voltage electric vehicles that are under 1000 pounds.  It was designed to work with all 96 to 250 volt battery packs.  This particular prototype was designed for low inductance motors, and runs at about 16.5 kHz.  This is an IGBT-based controller.  Please note that this prototype does NOT have over-current protection built-in.  It does have voltage protection, so it will shut down if the voltage drops outside of safe limits. The unit was road-tested and seems to work fine.  It is marked "Prototype #3" several places.  Controller comes with built-in cables.  Uses a standard EPC wiring harness (not included), and is plug-in compatible with all production EPC controllers.  If you need the vehicle harness end, please let us know.  Unit has some minor scratches on it, but is in otherwise in excellent condition.  Although this is a high frequency controller, it has the same plug-and-play software as standard EPC controllers.  It will automatically detect any battery pack (from 96 to 240 volts), motor type, and 3-wire throttle control.  This will allow you to simply connect it and drive, if you decide not to use your own software.  Requires a 3-wire potentiometer for speed control (such as the Curtis PB-8 or EPC TC1).  The owner's manual with wiring diagram is not included, but we can email it to you if you need one. This unit was just upgraded with the latest software, which includes soft-start (eliminates the jerky throttle response found in some other controllers), and features an optional brake-pedal input.  Controller has a peak capacity of 300 amps / 260 volts.  Measures approx 8 x 8 x 6 inches, including the heat sink.   Uses a non-metallic enclosure that is waterproof for outdoor use.  Great for a science/programming project, or for anyone experimenting with an electric car.  Also makes a great starting point when building you own controller. Buyer pays S&H.  Please email or call 508-923-9503 if you have any questions before bidding.  Because this is a liquidation item, all sales are final and the item is NOT returnable.
