“Hotrodding” AC Capacitor Motors and Gearmotors …At your own Risk

You can get higher starting torque from an AC induction motor by replacing factory specified capacitors with larger ones. But pushing the motor too far beyond design specs is risky. Here’s how capacitance affects motor performance. Overview Capacitors for permanent-split-capacitor (PSC) and capacitor-start (CS) AC induction motors are sized by motor manufacturers to produce

Thermal Overload Protector Options for small Electric Motors & Gearmotors

Thermal Overload Protector Options for small Electric Motors & Gearmotors

Safety compliance for thermally protected electric motors: Adding a thermal overload protector (OVLP) does not void “construction” recognition of a UL recognized (“UR” marked) AC motor or gearmotor, but it does add to the overall motor cost. If additional third-party or safety compliance markings (UL/ CSA/ CE/ TÜV/ VDE) for a “thermally protected” motor or gearmotor
