Choose the Right Avetlink AK Controller
When to Choose the AK 6-Tube Controller
Choose the AK 6-tube controller for:
- Light-duty electric tricycles.
- E-bike conversions.
- Passenger tricycles mainly used on flat city roads.
- Entry-level fleets with limited budgets.
When to Choose the AK 12-Tube Controller
Choose a suitable AK 12-tube version for heavier passenger loads, hilly roads, or vehicles that may later upgrade to a 650W or 800W motor.
Square-Wave or PMSM Control?
The AK 6-tube co
ntroller is available o
nly with square-wave control. It is designed for standard brushless DC motors used in entry-level e-bikes and light electric tricycles.
For a 500W PMSM motor, choose the compatible AK 12-tube permanent magnet synchro
nous co
ntroller with sine-wave control.
“6-tube” and “6 MOSFET” describe the same transistor count. On internatio
nal sourcing platforms, this product type is often listed as a 6 MOSFET brushless co
ntroller for e-rickshaws.
Why Choose the Avetl
ink AK 6-Tube Controller?
Stable 18A Output
Some entry-level co
ntrollers are rated at 18A but reduce output above 12A as they heat up.
The AK 6-tube co
ntroller is designed to maintain 18A co
ntinuous current with a 500W motor under normal operating conditions, providing steady power during everyday use.
Automatic 48V/60V/72V Detection
One co
ntroller automatically detects 48V, 60V, and 72V battery systems. This reduces the need to stock separate versions for each voltage.
For distributors handling several vehicle platforms, one co
ntroller co
nfiguration and wiring diagram make purchasing, installation, and stock management simpler.
Practical Compatibility Checks
Before ordering, c
o
nfirm the motor type, battery voltage, current requirements, and connectors.
For complete drive systems, also check that the controller, motor, and differential are compatible. This helps avoid installation problems and unnecessary replacements.
