Abstract
An inexpensive and reliable regulating apparatus contains between a regulating unit and an electric motor series-connected therewith a feedback path for a single tachometer signal and including a band-pass filter. The band-pass filter determines the operating range of the electric motor. The regulating unit is constructed such that during operation the electric motor is supplied with power only when a signal from the feedback path arrives at the regulating unit. Under the action of external disturbances the supply of power is interrupted at least for a predetermined duration of time.
