1355 Solid State Contactor Module

Product catalog summary
Overview
The Curtis Model 1355 is a compact, solid-state contactor module designed as an alternative to electro-mechanical contactor panels. It provides programmable soft-start and current-limiting control for up to five brushed DC motors, using CANbus commands or direct digital inputs.

Applications
This module is suitable for use in 24–36VDC applications, such as Sweeper-Scrubber floor care machines, where control of multiple loads up to 100A each is required.

Features
  • Microprocessor-based design reduces installation labor and space requirements.
  • Five motor drivers (M1–M5) rated for 100A peak current, with soft start and current limiting capabilities.
  • Optional three 10A full bridge actuator drivers controlled via CANopen commands.
  • One 3A driver output for a main contactor.
  • Six digital inputs for stand-alone control of motor loads.
  • H-bridge mode for bidirectional motor operation.
  • Parallel output connection for larger motor loads.
  • CANopen interface for integration with other Curtis products.
  • Heavy-duty bus bars and IP65 sealed connectors for reliability.
  • Robust enclosure for chemical resistance and environmental protection.
  • Programmable for 24 or 36VDC supply.
  • Power/status LEDs and serial communication port for programming tools.

Specifications
  • Complies with EN12895 for EMC and EN1175-1:1998+A1:2010 for safety.
  • IP65 rated per IEC 60529.
  • UL583 recognition pending.

Model Chart
The document provides a model chart detailing the voltage, motor outputs, actuator outputs, and digital inputs for different model numbers.

Functional Safety Data
  • Details on safety functions, performance levels, and mean time to dangerous failure (MTTFd) for models with and without actuator outputs.

Dimensions and Wiring Diagrams
Includes detailed dimensions and typical wiring diagrams for the Model 1355, illustrating connections for motor loads, actuators, CAN ports, and serial ports.

Warranty
The product comes with a two-year limited warranty from the time of delivery.

1355 Solid State Contactor Module-1

MODEL 1355 DESCRIPTION The Curtis Model 1355 is a compact and affordable solid-state alternative to electro-mechanical contactor panels. It offers fully programmable soft-start and current-limiting control of up to 5 brushed DC permanent magnet or series wound motors, via CANbus commands or direct digital inputs. APPLICATION Typical applications include Sweeper-Scrubber floor care machines, or any other 24-36VDC application requiring control of multiple loads up to 100A each. FEATURES • Microprocessor based design substantially reduces installation labor and physical space requirements. • Five drivers, Ml - M5, for motor loads, rated for 100A peak current. • Ml - M5 motor drivers offer soft start and current limiting capability. • Optional three, 10A full bridge actuator drivers, controlled via CANopen control commands. • One 3A driver output, for a main (line) contactor. • Optional six digital inputs allow stand-alone control of five motor loads. • H-bridge mode allows bidirectional operation of a single motor load. • Ability to connect outputs in parallel to drive a single larger motor load. • Ability to connect multiple 1355s throughout a vehicle control system. • Accurate motor, actuator current measurements and full diagnostics reported via CANbus. • CANopen interface allows interconnection to a wide range of products, including the Curtis line of AC motor speed controllers and Curtis vehicle system controllers. • Heavy duty threaded M6 bus bars for battery and M5 for motor connectors eliminate reliability issues often found with push-on power connectors. • All logic connections via reliable, IP65 sealed 14-pin AmpSeal connector. • Robust IP65 sealed enclosure provides excellent chemical resistance and protection from harsh environments. • Designed to withstand high levels of bump, shock and vibration. • Programmable 24 or 36VDC nominal supply. • Externally viewable power/status LEDs. • Serial communication port for Curtis 1314/1313 programming tools.
