Re: Denso Window Motors, Warning - Don't use with Jaguars !
If you are quoting this FAQ...
The Jaguar (MDL‐BDC) modules have a self protection feature that does not allow excessive current to be drawn. This feature protects both the motor and the motor controller from damage. The Jaguar (MDL‐BDC) module normally provides up to 40 A of continuous current to a heavily loaded motor. However, it is capable of providing much higher currents, but for shorter periods of time. Jaguar provides 60 A for up to two seconds and provides 100 A for approximately 0.2 s.
I read this as the current protect mode waits 2 sec at 60 amps and 0.2 sec at 100 amps. The stall current on a CIM is 129 amps. If this is an accurate statement, then Mark's experience could have been right around the 60 amp trip point. Remember that fault will prevent output for 3-4 seconds while flashing the fault LED.
