A solid model train controller for HO or N scale trains, the Model Rectifier Corp. (MRC) Tech II Loco-Motion 1500 features an excellent balance of affordability with power reserves and a momentum control switch to simulate loaded-down trains. Compatible with all DC scale model trains. Z scale train engineers will want to not turn the throttle up more than half way. The item is brand new in original packaging as shown, factory fresh, with all papers. 5 year warranty through the manufacturer. Picture of actual item. Loco-Motion 1500 offers more control and power than standard train power supplies, turning your trains into a realistic model railroad through improved slow speed performance. Revolutionary slow speed circuitry enables your loco to crawl like a full size engine, couple without crashing, and perform flawlessly in slow speed precision railroad operations. The pack features Automatic Pulse Injection for slowest speed control. Proportional Tracking Control (PTC) is built in - this is an innovative system of control that yields the most responsive, realistic model train operation available, unequaled by conventional power packs. The unit is encased within an advanced, industrially engineered double-insulated housing designed for safety and ease of use. 300 degree speed control - The extended range of the throttle gives you three times the control arc of ordinary power packs. And, the Thottlemaster knob offers a relaxed, comfortable feel while simulating real locomotive throttles. An automatic circuit protector promptly and automatically disconnects your equipment if serious or continued overload occurs. Console Switches: An indent action main line direction switch for quick easy reversing. A master on-off switch ends the nuisance of plug pulling. The momentum switch, when engaged, simulates slow-to-start trains by ramping up voltage on the rails at a gradual rate to the user's throttle setting. Conversely, when stopping the train, it will slow down gradually. The spring-loaded brake switch stops the train within a shorter distance until the switch is released. This can be effectively used along with the direction switch to simulate realistic direction-change operations. Operational light - One variable power monitor - this indicator monitors power output, keeping you constantly informed of locomotive status. There is a fixed AC output for expansion, AC cab controls, and AC accessories. There is a fixed DC output for expansion or DC based accessories. Simple hook up with 'easy on' terminals - eliminate the need for crimping, soldering, etc. No special tools required (all you need is a standard flat screwdriver). Last but not least, Extra Reserve Power! There is power to spare, with an extra measure of controlled power available to fulfill unusual locomotive demands and power lights and operating accessories. All of these features greatly improve enjoyability and make the pack ideal for both the Christmas around-the-tree railroad and the serious train enthusiast or budding modeler looking for an affordable solution. Specifications: Input 120 VAC 60Hz, Variable DC Output - 20 VDC, 17 VAC fixed (accessories), 22 VDC fixed (expansion). Total output 12 VA. UL Listed. Made in USA. |
