| OmniPulseTM DDC Digital DC Drive |
Increase your competitive advantage by converting your DC controls to state-of-the-art OmniPulse DDC Digital DC drives.
The leader in crane and hoist motor control, Electromotive Systems, brings you the OmniPulse DDC Digital DC Drive. OmniPulse will improve the
performance and reliability of your DC operated crane or hoist, while minimizing downtime, maintenance expenses and energy costs. OmniPulse DDC
technology may also be applied in other industries. We employ semi-conductor technology, which provides better control of motor speed and torque
than costly, older DCCP control technology. This micro-processor based, solid state, four-quadrant DC-to-DC control is designed for series,
shunt or compound wound motors. More importantly, it will also improve safety in your facility.
Flexible Software
We know production needs change. That's why OmniPulse DDC was designed with universal software that provides superior flexibility during
start-up and allows for quick parameter changes as needed. (Software upgrades or future releases can be flashed from a PC). OmniPulse DDC gives
you optimal performance and speed regulation while adjusting to meet your changing operational requirements - without the need for additional
hardware.
Drop-in Replacement for DCCP
OmniPulse DDC is the perfect drop-in replacement for traditional electromechanical controls, easily interfacing to existing power and control
circuitry using the same connection points in a smaller footprint.
Backed by the Leader - Magnetek

| OmniPulseTM DSD DC Control |
Magnetek's OmniPulse DSD DC Control brings advanced power technology to the operation of DC cranes and hoists.
We've evolved our highly successful DC drive technology, used to power over 25,000 elevator drives worldwide, to bring you a superior DC control
for crane and hoist applications! OmniPulse DSD provides DC shunt wound bridge, trolley, and hoist motors with reliable, energy-efficient
performance, while significantly reducing operating and maintenance costs.
The fully programmable OmniPulse DSD DC drive offers smooth controlled acceleration and deceleration ramps, permitting more efficient load
placement and reduced load swing and mechanical shock. This results in increased production throughput and drive train life.
OmniPulse DSD DC Controls are available in component form, pre-engineered panels, or custom panels designed to your specifications, and include
all standard features plus a wide variety of other control options. DSD also interfaces with IMPULSE Link 4.1 Basic or WDS (wired or wireless),
offering remote parameter operation and diagnostic capabilities.

| MagnePulseTM Digital Magnet Control |
Magnetek, the leader in crane and hoist motor control, offers the MagnePulse Digital Magnet Control for the operation of DC industrial
lifting magnets. Built on Magnetek's proven OmniPulse DDC platform, this microprocessor based, solid-state, DC-to-DC control combines
advanced safety and performance features to improve productivity and reliability in your facility.
Advanced Performance
• Digital control of the magnet's demagnetizing current means the magnet cleans the load faster and
more consistently, increasing throughput
• Exclusive OmniBeam feature allows the operator to enable any combination of up to four unique magnets
to precisely match individual load requirements
• Stepped current allows you to program the drive to lift/clean a single slab or a stack of slabs, reducing
cycles and improving throughput
• Power loss ride-through continues to energize the magnet to keep the control running and current flowing
through the magnet when main power is lost
Improved Safety and Protection
• MagnePulse DMC automatically removes magnet power during a fault event, preventing damage to the drive
and magnet
• Open/short circuit detection automatically disables current to the magnet if a cable is cut, avoiding control
and magnet damage while improving plant safety
• Over-temperature protection utilizes the magnet's resistance to determine its temperature, preventing magnet
damage and increasing life expectancy
• Digitally control the rate of current change to prevent voltage spikes or minimize drop time
• Password protection stops unauthorized users from changing the control characteristics
Increased Production and Efficiency
• Reduced lifting current maintains a full load while saving energy, lengthening magnet life, and
increasing average lift capacity
• Efficient use of energy reduces magnet heating up to 50%, reducing or eliminating the need for magnet
change-outs
• Flexible control options include single-input, dual-input, stepped-input, analog or serial current references
as well as a programmable input to maximize magnet and crane performance
• Twenty-five drive, magnet and control status monitors check magnet current, voltage, resistance, temperature,
DC bus voltage, and control variables to simplify process optimization
Enhanced Programmability and Diagnostics
• Comprehensive software provides superior flexibility and allows for quick parameter changes - software
upgrades can be flashed from a PC
• Fully compatible with IMPULSE Link 4.1 Basic and IMPULSE Link 4.1 Wireless Diagnostic System (WDS)
allowing you to upload, download and monitor parameters using a hardwired or wireless link to your PC
Flexible Options
MagnePulse DMC can be easily retrofitted into your current framework, using existing operator controls and connections. Magnetek can also
provide a pre-engineered panel with all the components needed to provide complete magnet control. Panel accessory options include E-stop,
fan kits, and circuit breakers. MagnePulse DMC may also be added to a custom panel, designed and built to your exact specifications.
