Figures are the highest published for each series and are not always measured the same way. A higher figure is not automatically a better choice: mounting, duty cycle, feedback, connectors and approvals matter too. An engineer will check the fit against your application before recommending anything.
What a DC servo motor is
A DC servo motor, in current usage, is usually a low-voltage brushless permanent-magnet motor designed to run from a DC bus, typically 24 to 96 V, under closed-loop servo control. Electronically it works like an AC servo, with a three-phase stator commutated by the drive and encoder or Hall feedback on the shaft. The lower voltage means higher current for the same power, but suits battery-powered and safety-extra-low-voltage machines. Small precision brushless servomotors also fall into this group.
When engineers choose a DC servo motor
Choose a low-voltage DC servo for mobile robots, AGVs, battery equipment, medical devices and compact machines where mains voltage is impractical or unsafe. It allows simple power distribution and safe access. The trade-offs are current and power range: high current means thicker cables and higher losses, so power is typically limited to a few kilowatts. For mains-powered machines above that, an AC servo is usually simpler.
How to specify the Portescap 22ECS Ultra EC slotless BLDC
Send these with your enquiry and an engineer can confirm the right 22ECS Ultra EC slotless BLDC variant or an equivalent:
- Bus voltage (V DC) and battery range
- Continuous and peak torque (Nm)
- Rated and maximum speed (rpm)
- Continuous and peak current (A)
- Feedback type and resolution
- Brake, IP code and frame size (mm)
- Drive and network interface
Common mistakes to avoid
- Sizing at nominal battery voltage without checking the low-charge end
- Undersizing cables for the higher current
- Ignoring regenerative energy into a battery or supply
- Mixing motor and drive feedback types that are not compatible
Portescap 22ECS Ultra EC slotless BLDC: frequently asked questions
What is the Portescap 22ECS Ultra EC slotless BLDC?
22 mm slotless brushless DC motor from the Ultra EC range: about 45 mNm continuous, up to 60,000 rpm and 180 W continuous mechanical power at 24 V, rated −30 to +100 °C. Published series figures include outer diameter 22 mm, temperature -30 °C, temperature 100 °C, rated torque 0.046 Nm. It is made by Regal Rexnord; Specify Motion can help source it or propose an equivalent.
Who makes the Portescap 22ECS Ultra EC slotless BLDC?
The Portescap 22ECS Ultra EC slotless BLDC is made by Portescap (Regal Rexnord) and is listed here for engineers comparing options. Specify Motion is not affiliated with Regal Rexnord; brand names are used only to identify the product.
What is the outer diameter of the Portescap 22ECS Ultra EC slotless BLDC?
The published series maximum outer diameter is 22 mm. Individual models and sizes in the 22ECS Ultra EC slotless BLDC range vary, so check the exact variant against your duty cycle, mounting and environment, or ask our engineers to confirm the right size for you.
Is there an alternative to the Portescap 22ECS Ultra EC slotless BLDC?
Yes. On published figures, Kinco SMH Series Low-Voltage DC Servo Motor (SMH110D) and Leadshine ELVM Series Low-Voltage DC Servo Motors are the closest match from our supply network. An engineer confirms the fit against your application before recommending anything.
What is the difference between an AC servo and a DC servo motor?
Both are typically brushless permanent-magnet motors under closed-loop control. The main difference is the supply: AC servos are wound for drives fed from mains voltage, while DC servos are wound for low-voltage DC buses. DC servos suit battery and low-voltage machines; AC servos suit higher-power mains machines.
How does battery voltage affect a DC servo motor?
Motor speed is roughly proportional to available voltage, so as a battery discharges the top speed falls. Size the motor at the lowest working battery voltage. Also allow for regenerative energy during braking, which raises bus voltage and must be absorbed by the battery or a braking circuit.
