    Rewinding a Motor from 50Hz to 60Hz

    ScottyUK - That karcher was bought at USD1,500. We already bought a new Karcher for cleaning the A/C coils. I took the burnt one home for cleaning the cars but it seems that it will cost me much to rewind this so I bought a cheap USD100 washer. But still wanted to rewind this for curiosity (of...

    Rewinding a Motor from 50Hz to 60Hz

    Pete - by the way the winding is lap and I will rewind it also with lap Rhatcher - if the pressure regulator is not enough to compensate the pressure that will be produce due to the 20% increase in rpm, I'm planning to increase the hole of the nozzle by 20%? thus to release or balance the...

    Rewinding a Motor from 50Hz to 60Hz

    Actually the motor coils are already burnt and rewinding is inevitable, rewinding it following the original specs and buying a transformer (230Vac to 276Vac) will too expensive and buying a new pressure washer will be more economical. Thanks for your replies, keep them coming.

    Rewinding a Motor from 50Hz to 60Hz

    There is a knob for controlling the pressure so probably the pump can compensate the increase in the rpm due to 60Hz by adjusting this knob.

The motor was a 230Vac single phase 50Hz 3.1kw we connect it to 230Vac 60Hz and the windings get burnt. Now I'd like to rewind it and I've been searching the net on how to convert it...
