Status: In Stock

Product Overview

The 115DUB300CACAC (PG115-100)​ is a 1.5 kW class three-phase permanent magnet brushless AC servo motor belonging to Control Techniques’ (now Nidec CT) Unimotor PG servo motor family, engineered for precision automation applications that demand high dynamic response, accurate positioning, and frequent start-stop operation. Built on a 115 mm frame with a 100 mm length code (hence the product code PG115-100), the 115DUB300CACAC (PG115-100)​ delivers a rated torque of approximately 4.8 Nm at 3000 rpm, with a peak torque capability of around 14.4 Nm—delivering 3× rated overload for short-duration acceleration and deceleration surges. The motor’s low-inertia rotor design, combined with high-energy permanent magnet materials, yields an exceptional torque-to-inertia ratio that enables extremely fast dynamic response while maintaining the smooth operation expected of a brushless PMSM.As a core component of Control Techniques’ servo ecosystem, the 115DUB300CACAC (PG115-100)​ is purpose-matched to Unidrive SP, Unidrive M/ES, Digitax ST, and Mentor MP servo drive platforms. The motor comes factory-integrated with a high-resolution feedback device—supporting incremental encoder, absolute encoder (Hiperface or EnDat protocols), or resolver depending on the specific ordering suffix—eliminating the alignment issues and backlash associated with externally mounted encoder kits. This “all-in-one” design provides the servo drive with ultra-precise position and velocity data for superior closed-loop control. The 115DUB300CACAC (PG115-100)​ is sealed to IP65 standards across its aluminum housing, making it dust-tight and protected against low-pressure water jets, and can be deployed directly on machinery in challenging environments without requiring an additional protective enclosure.Manufactured by Control Techniques (a Nidec group company) to industrial-grade standards, the 115DUB300CACAC (PG115-100)​ weighs 5.2 kg with dimensions of 115 × 100 × 100 mm, and uses a standard IEC flange-mount configuration with a keyed shaft output. Rated for 200/220 VAC three-phase input at 2.5 A nominal, the motor carries Class F (155°C) insulation, natural convection cooling, and operates reliably across -20°C to +40°C (standard) or -30°C to +55°C (wide-temperature version). The motor is CE, UL, cUL, and RoHS compliant, and is now officially discontinued by the manufacturer—available through specialized industrial automation spare-parts channels as new surplus or new original stock. For facilities operating legacy Unidrive SP or Digitax ST servo systems, the 115DUB300CACAC (PG115-100)​ remains a strategically critical spare for sustaining production lines without a costly drive-and-motor platform migration.

Main Features and Advantages

The 115DUB300CACAC (PG115-100)​ delivers a feature set purpose-built for precision motion control applications where dynamic response, positioning accuracy, and operational reliability are non-negotiable. Its most compelling advantage is the optimized rotor design that balances low inertia with high-energy permanent magnet construction. This engineering approach gives the 115DUB300CACAC (PG115-100)​ an exceptional torque-to-inertia ratio, enabling extremely fast acceleration and deceleration rates critical for indexing tables, robotic arms, and pick-and-place units where minimizing cycle time is paramount—without sacrificing the smooth operation typically associated with larger, slower motors.Three-fold peak torque capability forms the second pillar of the 115DUB300CACAC (PG115-100)‘s performance profile. With a rated torque of ~4.8 Nm and peak torque reaching ~14.4 Nm for short-duration overloads, the motor can handle sudden load surges, rapid start-stop cycles, and aggressive acceleration ramps that would stall lesser servo motors. In a high-speed packaging machine pick-and-place application, the 115DUB300CACAC (PG115-100)​ leverages this 3× peak torque to achieve faster cycle times—transferring products from conveyor to tray at speeds exceeding 100 cycles per minute while maintaining millimeter-level placement accuracy. The integrated high-resolution feedback device provides precise positional data to the paired Unidrive M drive, enabling closed-loop control that eliminates cumulative error.Factory-integrated feedback eliminates a major pain point in servo system deployment. Unlike standard motors that require separately purchased and aligned encoder kits—introducing backlash, alignment drift, and installation complexity—the 115DUB300CACAC (PG115-100)​ comes with its feedback device installed and calibrated at the factory. Depending on the specific ordering suffix, this feedback may be an incremental encoder, an absolute encoder supporting Hiperface or EnDat protocols, or a resolver. This “all-in-one” design ensures the servo drive receives ultra-precise, drift-free position and velocity data from day one, dramatically simplifying commissioning and improving long-term reliability.Industrial-hardened IP65 construction sets the 115DUB300CACAC (PG115-100)​ apart from commercial-grade servo motors. The fully sealed aluminum housing is dust-tight and protected against low-pressure water jets, allowing the motor to be deployed directly on machinery in challenging environments—food processing washdown stations, pharmaceutical packaging lines, outdoor material handling systems—without requiring an additional protective enclosure. This capability simplifies cabinet design, reduces overall system cost, and extends service life in contaminated atmospheres. The Class F insulation and natural convection cooling further contribute to maintenance-free operation across the motor’s ≥ 20,000-hour mechanical service life.Seamless drive compatibility rounds out the competitive profile of the 115DUB300CACAC (PG115-100). Purpose-engineered for Control Techniques’ Unidrive SP, Unidrive M/ES, Digitax ST, and Mentor MP servo platforms, the motor’s feedback signal and control algorithms are deeply matched to these drives, delivering superior response speed and positioning repeatability compared to generic cross-brand combinations. For facilities with installed Unidrive SP systems, the 115DUB300CACAC (PG115-100)​ represents a genuine drop-in spare—restoring full system functionality without drive replacement, firmware migration, or control architecture redesign. With the motor now discontinued by the manufacturer, maintaining strategic spares inventory of the 115DUB300CACAC (PG115-100)​ has become essential for sustaining legacy servo systems and avoiding costly platform-wide migrations.
