Sevcon Accelerator

Sevcon Accelerator Assembly / Throttle Position Transducer


Logi-Tec is proud to announce that we have worked in partnership with BorgWarner and we are now manufacturing the Sevcon Accelerator to its original specifications.

An accelerator assembly is an electromechanical input device that translates pedal or lever movement into an electrical signal for a vehicle or equipment control system. It incorporates a rotary shaft mechanism and electrical terminals that transmit position feedback to an electronic controller, enabling precise control of motor speed, vehicle acceleration, or machine operation.

Commonly found in electric vehicles, material handling equipment, industrial machinery, and other specialty applications, the accelerator assembly provides the critical link between the operator's input and the electronic control system. Its durable design and multiple electrical connections ensure dependable performance in demanding operating environments where accurate speed and power regulation are essential.

Key functions include:

  • Converting pedal or lever movement into an electrical control signal
  • Sending variable speed and power commands to an electronic controller
  • Delivering smooth, proportional acceleration and deceleration
  • Supporting responsive and safe equipment operation
  • Integrating seamlessly with electronic motor control systems

The accelerator assembly is designed for use within a complete drive or control system and is not intended to function as an independent motor controller.
