    As the speed controller parameters have been set for motors in advance, the motor performance can be maximized at both low and high speeds. The speed controller has a 200 to 2400 rpm (12:1) speed range that can be set through the speed knob on the front of the speed controller box. The speed setting can also be accomplished using an external 0-10VDC source. There is a setting feature for establishing the motor’s output power of 6 watts to 90 watts output for the FE100 speed controller. The FE200 extends the power level operation from 25 watts to 200 watts output. Other functions include individual acceleration/deceleration time settings between 0.1 seconds to up to 30 seconds.Oriental Motor USA Corp.www.orientalmotor.com800.418.7903
