90V or 180V direct-drive DC motors: the better choice for your commercial door operator
There are many advantages to choosing a DC operator for commercial and industrial applications. Improved strength, speed control, efficiency, and longevity are just a few of the benefits worth considering.
Most DC door operators on the market today rely on 24V motors. While adequate for light-duty use, they often fall short in demanding environments where performance, reliability and efficiency are essential.
90V and 180V DC motors are a major upgrade
This is why PULSE operators from iControls are built with either a robust 90V (up to 1 HP) or
180V DC motor (up to 3 HP), offering a clear advantage in commercial settings.
Unlike many competing operators, PULSE motors are horsepower-rated, not
“horsepower equivalent”. When you choose PULSE, you can be confident you’re
getting the power that’s promised.
With 24V motors, achieving higher speed means sacrificing torque. And when
higher torque is required, top speeds become limited. With PULSE motors, there’s
no need to compromise, they deliver both high torque and high speed.
Built for performance and dependability Choosing a PULSE operator means investing in a system engineered for strength and durability. The advantages of direct-drive 90V or 180V DC motors are clear. PULSE operators are the smarter choice for those who value exceptional performance and long-term dependability.
