ME1616 Liquid-Cooled Motor Drive System

This is the next step in the evolution of our bestselling PMAC kit. It features a compact, sealed, liquid-cooled motor that is an absolute beast for its size, and the most advanced controller in its class- the Sevcon Gen4. Designed to be universally applicable like their air-cooled counterparts, they come fully assembled and bench tested right out of the box- just add batteries. No need to buy expensive programming tools and software, or spending months learning the complexities of Gen4 programming. Save yourself the trouble! This is the one simple plug-and-play solution to achieving the power and features you need at a only a fraction of the normal cost. And don't worry, if the stock system isn't quite right for your application, we can customize everything from cable length to adding and removing elements, or programming characteristics specific to your application.

A feature that can't be overlooked is the support of regenerative energy recovery (regenerative braking). This means that the system can recapture kinetic energy by essentially turning itself into a generator to help recharge the battery pack while slowing down or braking. This hugely popular technology is often used in road vehicles as it can both increase braking power while simultaneously charing the batteries- just like in the Tesla Roadster, Toyota Prius, and others. It can also be used in sailboating, as a dragging prop with the appropriate gearing can be used to recharge the battery pack. There are many scenarios where this feature can be extremely useful, so be creative!

Here are some of the many applications for which our PMAC kits have already been implemented: 

Inboard or outboard electric marine conversions (specifically sailboats or light boats)
Vehicle conversions
Prototyping
Machinery such as pumps and blowers
Motorcycles
Karting
Robotics
Automation
Mining -
Aircraft -
Spacecraft (yes you heard correctly)  ...and the list continues!

Remember, certain applications- including many marine applications, will require a gear reduction system. Electric Motorsport can supply a variety of gear reducers ranging from 2:1 to 10:1.

Please note that, although it is required, we give you the option to purchase these systems with or without a liquid cooling kit. Unless you are certain that you can develop your own, it highly recommend that you purchase our liquid cooling kit to ensure proper functionality.
