Seems to be a controller for a single phase induction (AC) motor. Not unusual for the pen pushers at RS to describe something they don't have a clue about and get it completely wrong.

Short answer – no.

And all the DKM motors listed on the RS site are described as "reversible AC induction motor" and are truly piddle power. You'd struggle to even turn a machine with them, so presumably the controller is also miniscule. Not the most informative datasheet.

Hi

More info on the end use would be useful. Assumption is mother of all misunderstanding

X1 Mill ?

No connection with KB Electronics on my part just satisfied user

Start looking here

Expensive but very reliable

More here using one from this source using one on a band saw.

I also use a KB Electronics one on my Novamill spindle.  It works very well, have never had anything blow except a fuse when the mill decided to execute a "G0" rather than "G1" feed into the material, stakllked the motor and broke the cutter.

Hi Carl

Here is another link to a unit that may be useful. RS are way off with there description it is NOT AC to DC at all is is for a low power AC motor ( Extractor Fan)??? perhaps

**LINK**

Set up seems to be straight forward enough with the controller to match the motor.

Hi Carl,

Here is a motor/ controller combination similar to the one posted by oldvelo. This one is rated for 240 volts and available in the UK.

Carl,

As the motor came from a Sieg mill, why not use the intended controller..? The XMT2315/230V.

Available from a Sieg dealer near you….Arceurotrade….

That way it minimises any setup issues with min/max speed settings and any overload/over current issues.

I'm sure we can get you up and running…even if we have to do a point to point, step by step method of wiring up….

But I stress the choice is yours……!
