Ultra EC Motor Options for Cardiovascular Applications

Selecting the right motor for cardiovascular applications requires a clear understanding of the device’s specific performance requirements. Portescap's Ultra EC^TM brushless DC motor family offers three distinct options tailored to meet varying demands within this critical field:

1.	ECS Series. The ECS series was designed for high speeds and maximum responsiveness in direct drive applications and stands out with its remarkable power and efficiency at elevated speeds. Capable of delivering a continuous power output of 180 Watts at 50,000 RPM, the ECS series ensures exceptional performance in demanding cardiovascular settings, such as atherectomy procedures.
2.	ECT Series. The ECT series is designed to deliver high torque, leveraging a multipolar design to provide extreme torques even at lower speeds. What sets the ECT family apart is its ability to maintain consistent speed under load, ensuring the requisite power output is achieved consistently. This feature is particularly advantageous in cardiovascular applications where precise control and torque are critical, including intravascular ultrasounds.
3.	ECP Series. Balancing speed and torque with cost optimization, the ECP series offers a versatile solution suitable for a wide range of cardiovascular applications. Designed to deliver reliable performance while remaining cost-effective, the ECP family caters to applications that require a balanced working point, like extracorporeal mechanical circulatory support devices.

All three series within the Ultra EC motor family are viable options for cardiovascular applications, with the specific working point serving as the guiding factor in selecting the optimal series.
