Wow I just love the internet I just found this sitting on a french forum. I hope someone can understand it

Thread: Single phase reverse electrical genious required
21/02/2017 20:58:09

I have read in regard the letters W V U the following however its seems a bit greek

for start connection join ( X,Y.Z ) and connect U(phase 1),V(phase2),W(phase3) and Delta Join(U,Z) phase 1,join(V,X)phase 2,join(W,Y) phase 3

normative DIN (GERMAN ) use the first letter U mean (oder)V, W (ELCTRICAL MACHINERY) AND (R) (S) (T) FOR electrical terminals phases 120° degree R is not Run , S is not Start , T is not Time

I presume this is for Three phase so not applicable

Hi Brian , Norman

However a piece of plastic with wires out of it I would love to know what its doing and what its connecting when its switched on please?

For Your Information

The reversing of the motor with this combination required the following wires connected as follows:

N -> a

R -> Mains.L

S ->Mains N

T (empty)

W -> yellow motor windings, starter capacitor. brown

V -> motor black windings, starter capacitor blue

b -> (brown into motor temp)

U-> motor blue windings , (brown to motor temp)., red motor windings goes onto lower rail onto U.

Essentially swapping Black and Red

Have also stripped this back and wires separate into chassis

Wiring under original box separated into blue red on one side  and yellow and black and brown and brown on other.

HI have checked wires and Black to Red has 2.3 ohms between them, Blue to Yellow has 5.3 ohms, brown to brown is not open circuit. Blue to Black is 9.12 M Ohms , Blue to Red is 9.32 M Ohms, Yellow to Red is 9.0 M Ohms. Does this make any sense?

Thanks Jason it has this written on it Kity motor LS80P IP.45 1.1 kw 1.5HP 6.9A 3000 r.p.m

This is interesting an American motor kity with a french chassis no 4028201

I had to swap red and black to reverse motor direction if that helps n anyone work out what the motor is please except for single phase kitty

This is the info on the rotary drum site they wanted 70$US to ship here its a shame its not a Chinese part with free postage that is as good quality makes the purchase around £135 . Anyway I need to figure out wiring for this or Dewhurst his is what they had with it:

my connections to old switch are as follows if this helps . I really need and electrical genius

my switch had on it these wires connected to the switch I do not understand the letters b, U, V,W do they mean anything to anyone?

Connector Wires

b Brown(temp)

U Brown(temp) + Red (M) + Light-blue (M)

V Black (M) + Dark-blue( Capacitor)

W Yellow (M) + Brown (Capacitor)

Thanks everyone I cut the nylocs of with a friends lathe and drilled one and have it pinned with a roll pin works great . Have had to order some more roll pins as I ran out so am in limbo with motor apart until I can fathom what all these connections are fore. I have a circuit diagram but its not helpful as its has 9 types of motors a D.C Series , D.C Compound, Split Phase, Induction Repulsion - Four Motor leads windings in series D.C Shunt , Induction Repulsion Three motor Leads, Three Phase, Two Phase -Three wire , Two Phase - Four wire.

Mine is a Kity motor single phase with a cap and four wires and two temp I don't think it fits into any of these nine so am a little confussed as to what type is what.

Made up nuts for roll pins

Thread: I need to move my motors contol box single phase with cap
19/02/2017 13:40:38

I have seen lots of control switches that are like a drum how do you wire one of these up please would trailer cable be any good for wiring to main box from motor please?

Currently this is wired as follows:

N -> a

R -> Mains.L

S ->Mains N

T (empty)

W -> yellow motor windings, starter capacitor. brown

V -> red motor windings, starter capacitor blue

b -> (brown into motor temp)

U-> motor blue windings , (brown to motor temp)., motor black windings goes onto lower rail onto U.

Can this be converted to run a http://www.electricmotorwarehouse.com/content/IMAGES/RS1_diagram.jpg switch that is a drum type remote please? Like this http://www.electricmotorwarehouse.com/1-5-hp-2-hp-electric-motor-reversing-drum-switch-position-maintained-rs-1-sh/#sthash.Vq4UY9jK.dpbs

Hi Am am trying to move my control box on my kitty motor. I presume i have temperature two wires and three s blue red and yellow and black. Can i move this to a different remote switch . Does this or would this work with one of the lever switches

Hi Nick,

Am going to try the nyloc cut down first. 5mm from the other side of nyloc . I think it should hold fast as it will spin in hole. Why do you think this would not hold i would prefer a castleated nut but its hard to find one 3/4.

still awaiting shaft

18/02/2017 19:19:02

Added in the eye bold and nut all fits ok on this one . Checked my excel spreadsheet and 3000rpm gives me extra 59rpm. I can fit in a six in pulley or even an eight so have room to change speeds MAdded the eye bolt and going to cut down a nyloc to fit in to bearing

18/02/2017 19:01:49

Hashed up my maths kitty motor runs 3000 rpm lol
