Power Supplies for Electromagnets
Electromagnets must be able to release ferrous objects as readily as they attract and hold them. Release is the function of the Power Supply – not the magnet. Power Supplies render a reverse current that ensures positive release of even those alloy steels that retain induced magnetism extremely well. All Bunting® Power Supplies are designed to provide D.C. power for industrial electromagnets.
BPS1 Power Supplies
Feature a 3-position manual control switch for on-off-release, an indicator light, 6’ input cord with plug, 3’ output cord, and a splash-resistant enclosure.
BPS2 Power Supplies
Designed for heavy-duty manual control and feature an oil-tight enclosure, a 3-position toggle type control switch mounted on the enclosure, an isolation transformer with dual-voltage single-phase input, and an accessible terminal connection strip.
BPS3 Power Supplies
Cycle and release rapidly and cleanly, making them excellent for high-speed automated processes. An SPST switch, limit switch, or PLC output may be used to operate the Power Supply. The release cycle is completely automatic, so operator judgement is not required even with manual switches. An adjustable timed pulse of reverse current to the magnet effectively releases the load. BPSE Power Supplies are ideal for robotics or “pick and place” applications.
BPS4 Power Supplies
Designed for heavy-duty, lift-magnet type applications and may also be used as remote controls. They consist of an inexpensive combination drum switch and built-in rectifier.
Note: Total wattage of all magnets powered by a single Bunting Power Supply must not exceed the wattage rating of the Power Supply. For example, one to five 3-watt magnets can be used with a 15-watt Power Supply.
