Why does the rotor of a series motor need dripping paint?
The main purpose of dripping paint on the rotor of a series motor is to improve the insulation performance and anti-corrosion performance of the motor.
When the motor is running, the rotor is affected by electromagnetic force and mechanical force, which will produce friction and vibration, which can easily lead to winding wear, wire breakage or insulation failure. In order to improve the insulation performance of the winding and reduce the vibration and noise of the rotor during operation, a layer of insulating paint is often painted on the rotor. Insulating paint can increase the insulation distance between the windings and the iron core, prevent short circuits between the windings or between the windings and the iron core, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the motor.
In addition, the motor will be affected by the environment during use, such as moisture, high temperature, etc., which can easily cause the iron core to rust and the windings to become damp and corroded, and even cause the motor to fail. To prevent this from happening, a layer of anti-corrosion paint can be painted on the rotor to protect the motor from the environment.
It should be noted that for the rotor drip paint, appropriate paint should be selected, applied evenly, and the quality and performance of the insulating paint and anti-corrosion paint should meet the requirements to ensure the normal operation and service life of the motor.
Series motor power-on detection method
The series motor power-on detection method is as follows:
Prepare the circuit: Connect the power supply between the armature and brushes of the series motor and turn on the power supply.
Watch the motor rotate: When the power is supplied, the rotor of the series motor should start spinning. Observe whether the steering of the motor is correct, that is, whether the direction of rotation is the same as expected. If the direction is incorrect, you need to swap brush positions or change electrode polarity.
Measure the motor voltage: Use a multimeter or digital voltmeter to measure the voltage of the motor, known as the armature voltage. If the voltage is abnormal or zero, it may be a fault in the circuit or the motor itself. If the voltage is normal, proceed to the next step of detection .
Measuring motor current : Use an ammeter to measure the motor's current, which is the armature current. If the current is abnormal or zero, it may be a fault in the circuit or the motor itself. If the current is normal, proceed to the next step of detection.
Measure the motor speed: Use a tachometer and other equipment to measure the motor speed, and determine whether the speed meets the requirements based on the application requirements.
Observe the operating status of the motor: Observe the operating status of the motor, including noise, vibration, etc. If there are any abnormalities, troubleshooting and repair are required .
It should be noted that before conducting the power-on test of the series motor, the circuit and equipment should be checked for safety first, and necessary safety measures should be taken to prevent accidents.
