There's some DC drives here; https://www.inverterdrive.com/group/...V%2f240Vac+1ph
but you would need to find out if your motor is compatible.
Or maybe you could replace it with an AC motor and inverter drive.Last edited by EddyCurrent; 24-12-2014 at 02:54 PM.

Thanks Eddy,
The motor and controller was new 2000 - 2001 so don't want to change the motor just the controller box as it's big at 350 mm square, the supply to NECO box is 240-250Vac and I think the field supply to motor was 170 - 180Vdc

These Parker drives are quite good, this one looks like a candidate, but needs confirmed first.
