Adapter Circuits: See Product Page - Golf Car Adapters

The DCX product line is used with SEPARATELY EXCITED Wound Motors,
Commonly called SHUNT wound motors. These units drive golf cars,
people movers, scissors lifts, boom trucks, Neighborhood electric vehicles,
and a variety of other applications. Features include:

Programmable via RS232 comm port using PC or Laptop
Integrated anodized heat-sink with multi bolt pattern for flexibility
Fully encapsulated epoxy fill - environmentally rugged design
Available in 300, 400, 500, and 600 amp Performance versions
Advanced MOSFET power transistor design for excellent efficiency
and power transfer
1/2 Speed reverse option

Did you know?
> Shunt wound motors
have the Field and
Armature coils connected
Separately?

The DCX provides the
Separately Excited Field
current and Armature
current in relation to a
Field Excitation map
particular to that
manufacturer of motor.

Verify the motor is stock,
or if modified, the
controller is programmed
for the motor used.

Note: The controllers are available in two sizes based on current rating, see mechanical drawings below.
>The DCX 300 and 400 replace the Curtis 1204 short heat sink at 6.5" in length (165.1mm)
>The DCX 500 and 600 replace the Curtis 1205 long heat sink at 8.5" in length (215.9mm)

The DCX300, 400, and 600 are very successful products
since 2004. But, there is a hole between the DCX400 and
DCX600 - So we present the DCX500

From 24 to 48Volt DC, the DCX500 uses Newer MOSFET
devices that actually pulls nearly the same "continuous
power" as the Brute Force DCX600! This is going to be the
best price - performance unit and will become an all time
favorite used in Swamp buggies, lifted carts, rebuild electric
vehicles, anyone looking for Maximum Power - yet easy on
the on a budget.

An example of the inputs and outputs are shown. Click
on the image to enlarge. This diagram is very generic
example, please see the Document Depot for the many
various configurations this product can be used in.

DCX Wiring - Vehicle Interface Adapters:
Each car may use a particular connector. The DCX has a
10 pin connector and some adapters to the various car
wiring.

When ordering - be sure to order the proper
configurations, the unit will ship with the proper adapter.
