The new high current DC Speed Controller (AC-26-30) increases the control capabilities for linear actuators in the entire Progressive Automations’ inventory. With a 30A current rating, and 12-48VDC voltage range, the AC-26-30 can control the speed for all of the Progressive Automations’ actuators from 0% to 100% speed.

The onboard control knob allows fine-tuning control and a secure “off” position. Four conveniently located screw terminals at the front of the unit allow for a straight forward hook up. A built-in fuse helps protects against short circuits. Follow the DC Speed Control of a Linear Actuator wiring diagram in our Downloads section, this efficient and simple wiring method provides full speed control in the extend and retract directions.
