Thanks guys for your replies, I am having trouble believing that the motor is a series motor because of the small wires that feed the fields,(#6 or #8) with such a high current able to go to the armature (290 amps) I would think that the series wires should be much larger. Today I tried a number...
Hi guys, need help, I just obtained a 9.5 hp dc motor from a forklift. I want to run a sundstrand hydraulic transmission with a hydraulic pump piggybacking on the end of trans. When I took the cover off the motor I find two large bars marked A1and A2 which are the armature, also there are: 1...
Thanks again itsmoked, am aware of this site however they cannot help me with a shunt wound motor, great selection of series but would need a controller, See anything else let me know

Hi itsmoked, most things on E-bay are traction series motors which I can obtain locally, or higher dc voltages then I want to meet with batteries as I am restricted to the number of batteries. Here is a link to my present conversion http://www.austinev.org/evalbum/576.html
The shunt wound motor...
Thanks Gunnar, I live in Nova Scotia Canada, and while I have looked extensively on the web and through local motor companies a 20hp 90 volt dc shunt wound motor running at 3000 rpm is nowhere to be found, I have had a responce from a company in england that will get one at a cost of $5000. The...
Is there any way to determin the relationship between load and rpm on a series dc motor? I am converting a Zamboni from gas to electric and while I would like to have a 90 volt 20 hp dc shunt wound motor, I am unable to locate one. So I am looking at a series wound dc motor which are easily...
