controllers. These controllers are designed with you the user in mind. They provide easy
installation, many new features not available before on DC motor controllers, and diagnostics of
drive system faults. They are designed and manufactured to the highest quality standards for long
life and low failure rate. Both pump and traction controllers are available which use the most
modern and efficient semiconductors available (MOSFETS), coupled with a state of the art
microprocessor system that allows more features per controller than ever before.
1.2 This manual has been specially prepared to make installation of your MOS90 controller easy and
trouble-free. It outlines all the major facilities available with this outstanding new controller.
1.3 If you have any questions or suggestions about this manual please contact any of the subsidiaries
of Tech/Ops Sevcon where our engineering staff will be happy to provide you with all possible
assistance.

SECTION 2
SAFETY
2.1 Electric vehicles can be dangerous. All testing, fault finding and adjustment should be carried out
by competent personnel. Where possible, the drive wheels should be off the floor and free to rotate
during the following procedures THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURERS MANUAL SHOULD BE
CONSULTED BEFORE ANY OPERATION IS ATTEMPTED.
2.2 The MOS90 controller contains a triple failsafe system to give the highest level of safety. If the
green diagnostic light emitting diode (LED) is not illuminated or flashes on and off, the safety circuit
has tripped and the truck may not drive.
2.3 To ensure continued safety of the MOS90 system, the failsafe circuit should be checked whenever
the truck is serviced. The maximum period between checks should not exceed 3 months.
2.4 BATTERY MUST BE DISCONNECTED BEFORE REPLACING OR ATTEMPTING ANY REPAIRS OF
THE CONTROLS.
2.5 Pin 13 must be grounded if not being used as speed control input.
2.6 Note for 24/48v units without a line contactor fitted, never connect a battery to the controller with its
vent caps removed, as an arc may occur due to the controller's internal capacitance when it is first
connected.
2.7 Before handling controller cables on 24-48v units, disconnect battery and connect B + and B
terminals via a t OR ohm 25 watt resistor to discharge the internal capacitor.
FAILSAFE CHECK
2.8 Ensure drive wheels are clear of the floor and free to rotate.
2.9 Switch on, release brake and select drive, wheels should rotate and green LED on controller give a
steady illumination.
2
2.10 Switch off, disconnect battery and connect A and B- terminals with 10mm or greater, cable,
ensure no other fault that would allow drive.
2.11 Reconnect battery, switch on key with direction in neutral. The LED should flash 3 times. Select a
direction and check that direction contactors do not close and wheels do not rotate.
2.12 Switch off at key, remove A/B- connection switch on at key. Reselect power up sequence, LED
should now illuminate and truck wheels rotate.
IF THE TRUCK DRIVES IN 2.11, THE CONTROLLER IS FAULTY AND MUST BE REPLACED.
2.13 NOTES:
2.13.1 As blowout magnets are fitted to contactors, ensure that no magnetic particles can
accumulate in the contact gaps and cause malfunction. Ensure that contactors are wired
with the correct polarny to their power terminals (as indicated by the + sign on the top
moulding).
2.13.2 The MOS90 MUST NOT be used with permanently connected on-board chargers or
damage to the system may result.

SECTION 3
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
3.1 The MOS90 series of controllers are available in 4 basic power frames of different current
capacity. These 4 basic power frames then have various levels of build to give differing features,
such as voltage, allocation of contactors, reverse battery protection etc. The product range sheet
which follows details these variants.
The complete power frame is then 'matched' with a logic to give the required level of options.
3.1.1 Voltage: 24/36 and 24/48 volt units available.
3.1.2 Frequency: 200Hz nominal with variable mark/space ratio
3.1.3 Motors: Suitable for 3 (spm field) or 4 terminal motors. Min. motor
inductances:-
24V-0.lmH
36V - 0.15mH
48V - 0.25mH.
3.1.4 Battery Lead Length: 24/48v units, 15m max.
24/38v units, see Rating Charts, Appendix IV-2
3.1.5 Contactors: Direction (2), forward/reverse, bypass and field weakening OR
power steer, i.e. a maximum of 3 contactor functions may be
mounted. Maximum coil current per input:

A chopping facility is available so that 24 volt contactors may
be used on all system voltages. It is recommended that
whenever 24 volt coils are used the chopping facility is used.
An optional contactor/fuse mounting plate can be fitted onto
the controller.
3.1.6 Mosfet Devices: Have a lower forward (conducting) loss and a much higher
switching speed than SCR's or bipolar transistors. This
improves controller efficiency and prolongs battery shift life.
3.1.7 Operating Ambient Temp: -30°C to + 40°C. As the controller will limit its maximum
current above 800C (see Section 4-2, paragraph 4.20) the
controller may be used in ambients above 40°C. However,
if the controller is operated at higher ambient temperatures
and under heavy load conditions, it may be found that the
maximum current available is reduced below the Imax value
as the controller may have entered thermal cutback.

SECTION 5
INSTALLATION
5.1 The controller should be bolted down to a flat (O.2mm max. deviation) paint free surface that has
been ligh~y coated with a thermal transfer compound, such as MS4 or Dow Corning #7, by the 4
bolt holes provided. Care should be taken not to trap any wires, etc., under the controller. The
substantial metal section of the truck for the full controller ratings to
mounting surface MUST be a
be achieved.
5.2 Power connections should be made with flexible heat resisting cables of suitable cross-sectional
area for the current to be carried. These should be terminated in soldered or crimped lugs
attached to controller and the contactors. Note that nuts and washers are not supplied for the M8
connections on the controller. A battery disconnect switch should be used (EEe Directive).
5.3 Albright SW88 (MOS90 A), SW182 (MOS90 B & C) and SW202 (MOS90 D) are specified for use
controllers when 4 terminal motors are used. The equivalent single pole N.O. contactors
with the
(SW80, 180, 200) are used for bypass and pump functions The field weakening contactor (if used)
may be of lower current rating than direction or bypass, viz:- it is possible to use an SW80 field
diversion contactor with SW182 direction contactor. When alternative manufacturers contactors are
used, coil currents pull in/drop out times should be investigated to ensure compatible operation.
5.4 Split field (3 terminal) motors can use single pole normally open type contactors for direction
function with controllers for 24v systems, BUT, controllers for 24/48v systems require changeover
contactors OR double pole normally open types (if armature field junction connection available) to
utilise the Reverse Battery Protection (RBP) feature.
5.5 The contactor mounting plane can affect performance; contactors should never be mounted with
their terminal studs vertically down. For further applications information on contactors, please
consult SEVCON
5.6 The controller may be supplied as a stand-alone unit, or pre-wired onto a baseplate with
contactors etc. If the controller is 'stand-alone', the control wiring should be terminated at the Molex
0.15" control socket If a 'panel' is supplied, the control wiring connector is usually an AMP 15 way
MATE-N-LOK type. The harness portion of the connector can be supplied with the controller as a
'loose equipment kit'.
2
5.7 Control wiring connections should be made using 1.00mm (AWG #) or equivalent stranded wire.
The correct pressure release crimping pliers MUST be used for long term connection reliability.
5.8 The main battery cable should be fused with a suitable air-break fuse. The keyswitch line must also
be fused at a level not exceeding 10 amps.
5.9 Hour meters MUST NOT have their negatives returned via the direction contactor drivers (Pins 1 &
10) as the controller will not function.
5.10 Pin 13 on control input must be connected to B-ve if not being used as speed control input.

SECTION 8
ADJUSTMENTS
8.1 The following procedure is relevant to both traction and pump controllers, except where otherwise
marked. The controller can be adjusted In several ways to its desired parameters:-
8.1.1 The unit is pre-set at Sevcon's factory, but may be re-adjusted later by one of the methods
below.
8.1.2 The unit may be adjusted by means of an 'adjuster' which contains 7 potentiometers. These
are 'read' by the microprocessor and can be adjusted while the controller is in operation. The
settings are 'memorised' when the un~ is removed. External instrumentation (shunt, ammeter)
must be used with the adjuster. Only the first 7 parameters can be adjusted with the adjuster,
as illustrated below. In the case of the pump controllers, the potentiometers adjust speeds 1
to 7.
8.1.3 The adjuster as 8.1.2 may be permanently connected to the controller.
8.1.4 The adjuster as 8.1.2, once set, may be plugged into a series of controllers to set each in turn
to the same parameters. This is a useful feature as it allows rapid (1 second) configuration of
batches of controllers. Typically the adjuster unit(s) will have its potentiometers masked off
once set up.
8.1.5 A hand-held calibrator may be plugged into the adjustment socket and used to digitally incre
ment/decrement the parameters. The present value of these parameters wiii be shown on an
LCD display. Additionally, the calibrator can perform certain measurements on the controller
(see diagnostics section). Removal of the calibrator again causes the controller to 'memorise'
the set figures. This system gives the greatest accuracy and repeatability.
The hand-held calibrator has a bar display, operated by the SELECT button, showing
parameter/measurement selected and an LCD display showing values that, provided they are
parameters, may be adjusted by the +/- buttons. This unit may also be used to perform cer
tain tests on the wiring harness and accelerator.
Additional external instrumentation is not required when using the calibrator's measurement
feature.

L___________________ _________ ~
The following applies to traction controllers only. For details of use with pump controllers, see Sec
tion 10-1, paragraph 10.3.
8.2.1 F~ ammeter to motor circu~, ensure that truck drive wheels are clear of floor and free to rotate. Insu
late the bypass contactor tips (ij used). Switch on the controller and set the accelerator to maximum
wtth the brakes applied so that the wheels cannot rotate. Adjust IMax. to give the desired current
8.2.2 With the truck drive wheels still clear of the floor, remove bypass contact tip insulation. Switch on the
truck and allow to run up to full speed and the bypass contact or to close. Apply the brakes to load the
drive motor until the desired current is reached. Adjust the BYPASS pot counter-clockwise slowly until
the bypass contactor opens.
8.2.3 Remove ammeter and set truck on ground. Drive truck and adjust ACCEL to give acceptable 'feel'.
8.2.4 Drive truck with load and plug brake, adjust PLUG to set plugging level to suit application. Note that
plugging response can be affected by accelerator position on certain controller types, so that plug
ging must be set with the accelerator at maximum demand.
8.2.5 Creep Speed is set by adjusting CREEP so that with the drive selected, the truck is just about to move
at minimum accelerator position. This level may be set differently depending upon application.
8.2.6 Drive truck unloaded on a flat surface and measure speed. Adjust SPEED to limit speed to desired
level.
8.2.7 Repeat 6 above with speed limit 1 switch input at B- and adjust SPEED 1 for desired speed level.
8.2.8 Note: Only the first 7 settings can be adjusted using the adjuster. The full list of settings is described
on the next page.

DIAGNOSTIC LED
9.2 On power up the LED will be illuminated if the system is functioning correctly.
9.3 The LED is extinguished H the controller is faulty, the fuses are blown, the failsafe is not operational,
the contactor driver protection has tripped, or the Mosfets fail to turn on during drive. If the contactor
driver transistors are short circuit, the contactors may close but the vehicle will not drive under single
fault cond~ions.
9.4 This applies only to traction controllers. See Section 10-1, paragraph 10.4 for pump controllers. The
LED will flash a number of times on power up, or during running, to indicate a fault external to the con
troller.
9.4.1 2 flashes Incorrect start procedure fault.
Both forward and reverse selected.
9.4.2 3 flashes Bypass contactor welded - recycle through neutral to clear.
Contactor coil short circuit - recycle the keyswitch to clear.
9.4.3 4 flashes Direction contactor welded.
9.4.4 5 flashes Direction contactor did not close, or open-circuit motor.
9.4.5 6 flashes. Faulty accelerator input.

SECTION 10
PUMP CONTROLLER
10.1 The MOS90 pump controller is a derivative of the range of traction controllers which has been op
timised for the control of hydraulic pump motors in electric vehicles. The same powerful single chip
microprocessor, calibrator and diagnostic system are used.
10.2 Features
10.2.1 Three power frame sizes are available with current ratings of 275, 400 and 600A These units
are physically the same size as the MOS90B, C and 0 units, but with only 3 connection bus
bars.
10.2.2 Voltage range 24-48v.
10.2.3 Reverse battery protected w~h polar~y sens~ive line contactor; capable of operation without a
line contactor.
10.2.4 Up to 8 programmable speeds, with the priority of SPEED 1 highest, SPEED 8 lowest.
10.2.5 SPEEDS t -7 are active high and these inputs must be connected to B + to enable the speeds.
SPEED 8 is active low to allow its use as a power steer speed. The input must be connected
to B + to disable this speed and either disconnected or connected to B- to enable it.
10.2.6 Lift speed (SPEED 1) may be infin~ely variable with the use of an external 5K variable reSistor,
or a 0-5v input from a linear accelerator unit.
10.2.7 Creep speed adjustable (but overridden by lower selected speed).
10.2.8 Soft start (ramp-up) delay is adjustable.
10.2.9 Current limit adjustable.
10.2.10 Additive speed feature increases % ON when speed switch 8 (normally power steer) is selected
together with any other pump function. The speed increase depends upon the 'EXTRA' speed
setting and gives a measure of speed compensation.
10.2.11 An inhibit input is provided which can be used in conjunction with a B.D.I. low battery signal
to prevent SPEEDS 1-7 operating. SPEED 8 is still allowed to operate.
10.3 Adjustment
The pump controller may be adjusted in exactly the same manner as the traction unit. Using the
calibrator, all 8 speeds, the ramp delay, creep, current limit and the 'extra' speed may be set and reset
values being displayed:-
with their
10.3.1 Speeds displayed as 0-100% representing 0-100% of battery voltage.
10.3.2 Ramp up delay displayed as 0.10 to 1.00 representing seconds in increments of 20mS (0.02
secs).
10.3.3 Creep adjustable between 0 and 25% of battery voltage.
10.3.4 Current limit adjustable between 50A and maximum controller rating.
10.3.5 Using the adjuster, the first 7 speeds may be set.
10.4 Diagnostics
The diagnostic system is generally as described for the traction system. The number of flashes is defined
below:-
10.4.1 LED off Mosfets did not turn on.
10.4.2 2 flashes Pump inhibit input operating.
10.4.3 3 flashes Short circuit across Mosfets, or motor open circuit.
10.4.4 7 flashes Battery voltage less than 13v.
10.4.5 8 flashes Thermal cutback operating.
The test sequencer function of the calibrator is generally as described for the traction controller in Ap
pendix I, with the pump pot. (if fitted) being tested first, followed by switches 1-8, then the inhibit input.

1.3 If MOTOR VOLTAGE is monitored during driving at a Particl)lar speed and loading, it can be related
to a percentage of battery voltage and uSed to set speed cutback.
1.4 Use of the MOTOR AMP test will reveal if the motor is running at max. current up gradients etc. This
test will aid setting current limit to optimise battery life.
1.5 The TEMP test can be used durina prolonged running. of the tr\lck to check that no high temperature
conditions exist, due to poor neatsinkrng or unTIer·speciflcation. Min/max temperatUres are
recorded by the service log.
1.6 TEST displays are explained on page 1·2.
HOURS COUNT AND SERVICE LOG
PARAMETER LOGGING
The following data will be logged:·
1. Max battery voltage.
2. Max heatsink temperature.
3. Min heatsink temperature.
This data is displayed by selecting the measurement section on the calibrator (either BAn or TEMP) and
then using the' +' and '.' buttons to display the maximum and minimum excursions.
E.g., select battery voltage on the calibrator and press the' +' button to display the maximum battery voltage
the controller has ever measured.
HOURS COUNTER
The counter records pulsing hours, and displays the count when the calibrator is first plugged in (with no
LED segment lit). Once the select button is pressed, the calibrator reverts to its normal operation, i.e.
stepping on to displaying the present current limit setting.
Initially a minute/second count is displayed. By pressing the'·' button, hours are displayed and by pressing
the' +' button 1 ,O~~s of hours are displayed.
E.g., a count of 11,436 hours 27 minutes and 20 seconds would be:·
1. Initial display would be 27.2 indicating 27 mins, 20 secs.
2. Hold down '.' button to display hours, i.e. 436.
3. Hold down' +' button to display 1,000 hours, i.e. 11.
Releasing the buttons reverts back to the minute and 10's of second display. The decimal point 'blinks' every
second during drive. The counter will record up to 65,500 hours before rolling over to o.

APPENDIX V
CONTACTORS AND FUSES
V.l The MOS 90 series of controllers are designed to cover virtually the full spectrum of electric
vehicles. The contactors used with these controllers can have various different ratings. Sevcon
recommend and fit Albright contactors, the optional fuse/contactor plate available with the MOS 90
being drilled to accept Albright contactor fixing centers.
V.2 The table on the following page details the recommended types of contactor that are used on the
MOS units, depending upon amperage and type of motor.
V.3 Exploded views of contactors are given on the following page to aid repair. Note that contacts are
normally only available in sets and MUST NEVER be filed.
V.4 The contact stud securing nuts must not be overtightened.
V.6 Contactors whose coils are driven from the controller, should not be fitted with suppression diodes.
All other contactors and electromagnetic devices must be suppressed.
V.7 Three basic types of contactor are used with the MOS 90 system.
V.7.1 Single Pole Normally Open contactors.
These contactors are normally used for Bypass, Field Weakening, Pump or Power Steer
functions. They are also used in pairs for direction contactors on 3 terminal motor
applications. (SW80, 180 and 200 types).
V.7.2 Double Pole Normally Open contactors.
These contactors are only used for direction function on split field motors where the
armature/field function Is available as a power terminal and where reverse battery protection
is required on 24/48v family controllers. (SW822, 192 types).
V.7.3 Double Pole Changeover Pair contactors.
These contactors are available as reversing pairs and are used for direction functions with 4
terminal motors as well as 24/48v family controllers with split field motors where reverse
battery protection is not required.
Note that these contactors may be wired either normally open to battery positive or normally
closed to battery positive depending upon the motor type (SW88, 182,202 types).
V.8 Coil Voltage
With the MOS 90 system, 24 volt contactor coils may be used irrespective of the system voltage,
provided contactor coil chopping is used.
V.9 Polarity
All contactors are fitted with blow-out magnets, so the' + ' terminal must be connected to the most
positive voltage. This ensures that, under a fault condition, any arc produced during contact or
opening is blown away from the contact or ..
AppV-l
Rev4.11/91
V.l0 Coil Ratings
Various different types of contactor coil are available to match different contact or duty cycles. It is
important that the correct replacement types are used. If in doubt - consult SEVCON.

SW200/202
• An increase in contactor tip life can be obtained by using L (large) area contactor tips in these
SW180/182 applications. Especially for pump use.
The above are recommended air-break fuse sizes that are mounted on panels supplied by SEVCON.
Similar sizes are normally mounted for pump and traction applications. Control fuse rating should
not exceed 10 amps.

HARD TO FIND A BETTER PROVIDER
Our company provides services to aid in the manufacture of technological products, such as semiconductors and flat panel displays, and often searching for distributors of obsolete product we require can waste time and money. Finding GID Industrial proved to be a great asset to our company, with cost effective solutions and superior knowledge on all of their materials, it’d be hard to find a better provider of obsolete or hard to find products.
Applied Materials
CONSISTENTLY DELIVERS QUALITY SOLUTIONS
Over the years, the equipment used in our company becomes discontinued, but they’re still of great use to us and our customers. Once these products are no longer available through the manufacturer, finding a reliable, quick supplier is a necessity, and luckily for us, GID Industrial has provided the most trustworthy, quality solutions to our obsolete component needs.
Nidec Vamco
TERRIFIC RESOURCE
This company has been a terrific help to us (I work for Trican Well Service) in sourcing the Micron Ram Memory we needed for our Siemens computers. Great service! And great pricing! I know when the product is shipping and when it will arrive, all the way through the ordering process.
Trican Well Service
GO TO SOURCE
When I can't find an obsolete part, I first call GID and they'll come up with my parts every time. Great customer service and follow up as well. Scott emails me from time to time to touch base and see if we're having trouble finding something.....which is often with our 25 yr old equipment.
