Designed as a direct-fit replacement for compatible units, the pan motor helps recover full movement functionality without replacing the entire smoke machine.

Advantages

The pan motor unit offers consistent rotational response and smooth horizontal tracking to maintain stable smoke direction. It is engineered for compatibility with the Antari S-500 series, providing a compact form factor and established mechanical mounting points to simplify installation. The unit supports reliable operation under typical event and theatrical conditions and reduces downtime by allowing targeted repair of the pan mechanism rather than full system replacement.

Key specifications

How to use

Replace the defective pan motor by accessing the S-500 pan assembly according to the machine service instructions, disconnecting power and control connections before removal. Mount the replacement unit in the original pan bracket, reconnect the control and power connectors, and verify mechanical alignment and free movement of the head before powering on. Perform a functional test using the machine's pan control to confirm correct range and responsiveness, and make small positional adjustments if required.

Recommendations

Use the replacement pan motor only with compatible S-500 machines and follow Antari safety and service guidelines. Ensure power is disconnected during installation, and test the pan movement at low speed or incrementally to confirm correct wiring and alignment. For rental or heavy-use environments, schedule regular inspections of the pan mechanism and connections to maintain reliable directional smoke output.
