How To Find A Better DC Motor As Replacement

Recently, we receive increasing inquiry about GP dc motors from customers all around the world, so here we have few principles to help you choose a proper DC motor for your practical application. However, below is just for replacing an old motor. For choosing a new model or specific application, please contact our GP Motors Engineers.

Selecting a DC motor is very much an investigative process. The time it takes to gather all the information depends on whether the motor selection is for an initial installation like new machine design, or for a simple replacement. For direct replacements, the motor nameplate identification can provide much of the information needed. It can also tell a lot about the motor application. If no other changes have been made to the application, the motor nameplate can very well be the only thing needed to properly select a replacement. The motor nameplate identification is located on the motor enclosure. The information contained on the nameplate varies with motor manufacturer, but it can contain the following information:

1. Motor manufacturer

2. Model. Type or Catalog No

3. Serial Number. This provides specific information about a model or general type of motor. For example, it may include a data code to indicate the manufacturing date, revision code or applicable drawings.

4. HP (Horsepower) or KW (kilowatts)

5. RPM (Revolutions per Minute): motor speed at full load

6. ARM. (Armature Voltage): maximum D.C. voltage applied to the armature. Generally, 24 or 48VDC

7. A (Amps): full load current

8. Fr (Frame): physical dimensions of the motor

9. CW (Clockwise Rotation) or CCW (Counter-Clockwise Rotation)

10. Maximum Ambient Temperature: Related to Insulation Class, this specifies the maximum operating temperature of the motor

11. Insulation Class: classifies motor winding insulation by maximum allowable temperature. Typical classes are B and F.

12. Connection Diagram

Any of above can be helpful when trying to find a better motor, not just DC motor, to replace the old energy costs one. If you have any of the information, please kindly let us know so that we can respond as soon as receiving your specific inquiry.
