  electronic drive module
 

 

 All DSSI thrusters are powered and controlled by a vector drive type electronic drive module (EDM), one EDM for each thruster.  The EDM provides power in a closed loop, factory calibrated system and controls the motor speed by estimating the orientation of the permanent magnet flux vector to determine the thruster motor shaft rotational position.  It connects directly to the thruster and is powered from an AC or DC source over a range of voltages.  The drive does not require that a resolver be installed in the thruster for motor commutation.  The drive also includes an RS-485 serial interface which is used to configure the drive and to monitor its performance using a PC or other host computer.
