Another Mystery controller
by on 06/15/13 03:16 PM
Anyone recognize this one? Here is the description:I believe the 80's. It's a passenger with 16 stops. Varible voltage through a Westinghouse generator field regulator and an IPC motor field regulator. It also has a Sysmac (tan processor in photo on right side of controller.) It also has a 302 geared Payne Machine at 300 FPM run with a Westinghouse 12.5 KW generator (made by Imperial). There's also a picture of a tag on the front of the one controller.
Thanks You Guys,
Jim

The exact name, I can't remember right now, maybe ERL CT, it was Westinghouse's attemp to take there ERL controller and replace there problematic relays filled with match sticks holding contacts together and, use there tried regulator with a better relay replacement system "ice cubes" they figured they where losing to much time with guys soldering wires on the back of controllers for hours just to replace a relay that would fail if not properly maintained in a few months. The redeveloped the circuits to function at a lower voltage and amperage to be able to work with the ice cube relays. But they couldn't or didn't work towards redevopling those circuits to work on a higher scale for high rise applications witch was westinghouse's prime mod application. They figure the mechanics on those jobs would be performing more regular maint rather then a small 5 stop car in a remote location might have. For that reason It was a rare controller. Also in the late 70's early 80's because of the induction of solid state into controllers they moved away from relay logic. With the Schindler name the MICONIC was there next major development.
