Help with HF 14" x 40" lathe
Jan
""Also, what is done to reverse the single phase AC motor?"" Briefly!! The run winding and the start winding are usually connected in parallel. After the motor gets going pretty good the start winding is disconnected by a centrifical switch. By then the rotation of the motor is established and the motor continues to gain speed until the running speed is obtained. Some other variations are used such as a capacitor connected in series with the start winding to give some phase shift which shifts the current through the start winding. This makes the motor turn one way or the other. Changing the wiring makes the current phase shift through the start winding change which makes the motor go the other direction. Some motors have a capacitor and some don't. Some motors have a start switch and some don't. All depends on the many different schemes of the motor winding schemes. And there are plenty to go around. Lots more to this if you would like. It would take me a while to work up much more discussion. Bob AZ |
