I have a single phase induction motor that I would like to put to use.

The motor is wired with 6 leads. I have probed with a multimeter and found the following:

White, red and yellow appear to be the motor winding connections (2, 4 and 9). The windings measure about 115R each.

The two brown leads are connected together (about 1R6). They are electrically isolated from the other leads. I presume the two brown leads are connection 1 "c/out". Could anyone suggest how these two leads are used? I did wonder if it was "count out" but I've turned the motor over and the resistance does not change. Maybe a thermal trip?

Many thanks,

Brian

Ignore me... I just realised that next to the 85 degrees it says "c/out". Must be thermal cut out.

With this pedigree, that should be a decent motor

It's a small geared motor.

50 lb-in torque.
