Reliable and simple to install project that allows you adjust the speed
of a 230Vac/50Hz mains powered electric drill or single phase brushed induction motor
rated up to 600 Watts maximum. Simply turn the potentiometer to adjust the
motors RPM.
Uses a proven diac/triac based circuit. Onboard safety fuse. Heatsink included.
Please note that some loss of power occurs at low RPMs.
PRODUCT SELECTION NOTES: The motor controller should have an output load capacity at least 25% above the motors peak power requirement. Please do NOT rely on motor rating plates for power consumption figures as they often quote average not peak power. You should verify the actual peak power at start-up and under full load before selecting an appropriate size motor controller. Not suitable for use with brushless AC motors and capacitor-start/run AC motors.
