Hi all,
In my search for wiring information I've come upon this group.
Maybe
someone here can help me out.
I'm in the process of heating my shop with an outdoor wood burning
boiler, (it heats my home also).
I just had a squirrel cage fan given to me and I really don't have
a
clue as to how to wire it up. I don't even know what it came out
of
but
here's what the tag on the motor says;
EMERSON MODEL K55HXLGF-3701 HP 3/4
VOLT 115 HZ 60 AMP 11.0
PH
1
R.P.M. 1075/4SP THERMALLY PROTECTED
PT NO 51-21459-02 MFG. NO K92 C
INS CL A AIR OVER CONT FRAME 48Y
Also over on the right side of the tag it has;
12.5MFD
370 VAC
CAPACITOR
It has 7 total wires, ( one being the green case ground)
the other 6 wires are;
Red
Blue
Yellow
White
Black
Brown
I'll take a guess:
White neutral
Brown one side of capacitor
The hot side of the line to the other side of the capacitor and ONE
of
the remaining wires
Black highest
Blue next lowest
Red next lowest
Yellow lowest
Correct that-one side of capacitor to brown wire, other side to
neutral...
