Connect the electrical engine from the washing machine. Mr. Electric Sergiev Posad

12.06.2021

The electric motor is often called almost a heart that is installed in the household appliance. And this is not in vain, because it is due to the electric motor that the drum installed in the washing machine is rotated. Many doubts, can I connect the engine from the washing to another device personally?

Broken Washing Motor

What can be done with the engine washing

This is quite real, even if you practically do not understand such matters. For example, you have failed the Washing Machine of the "Indesit" brand, while the engine (its power is 430 W, and the developing speed reaches 11,500 revolutions per minute) still in working condition, and its motor is still in the norm. In this case, he may be useful in the farm.

Here are some ideas that will help you apply or connect the new engine installed in the washing machine, which failed:

The elementary option will be the creation of a grinding machine. Each house periodically steps and stupid knives and scissors that need to be sharpened. To do this, it is necessary to carefully fix the electric motor on a stable surface, attach a special stone for sharpening or grinding wheel and turn it on to the network.
A good option is the manufacture of paving slabs. You can also make slag blocks, and if there is a private sector, then an excellent idea is vibrationtol.
For residents of villages that are engaged in the cultivation of birds, can be constructed from the engine from the washing machine. Brochrushka and grass mill.

Motor Features - Pledge of Successful Work

Today there are more than quite different options for how you can give a new life to the old motor from the washing machine if it is still started. And all these ideas are based on the features of the motor to rotate a variety of nozzles or ensure the movement of additional mechanisms. You can come up with an even more original use of the removed engine, but to embody your idea to life, you need to understand how the engine is connected from the washing machine.

When connecting the engine, which remained from your old washing machine to another device, you need to keep in mind the several important nuances of this process:

engines are not connected using a condenser;
Not required launcher.

The distribution box contains wires of different colors, to deal with which you just need:

2 white wires - when connected, they will not be useful, as they are responsible for working normally the tach generator;
red and brown are designed to make a stator winding, as well as the rotor;
green and gray - for connecting to special brushes made of graphite (most often this can be said about the brushes of the engine washing machine "Indesit", in the case when they are replaced).

Proper wire connection - the key to the successful operation of the motor

Keep in mind that different models of engines may have wires of different colors, but the principle of their connection in all cases is the same. To detect pairs, it is necessary to produce a wire transclon in turn (those: what is intended for the taegender, must have resistance from 60 to 70 ohms). These wires better glue the tape from others to not be confused. The remaining wires also need to call to reveal the pairs.

As you can find out in our article.

Connection scheme

To continue work, you need to carefully examine all the nuances of the electrical connection scheme. Basically, it is made in very detailed and understandable even for the most far from the world of electrical means of a homemade master.

Connecting engine from washing

Connecting or replacing the engine of the washing machine actually happens quite simple. First of all, it is necessary to prepare the wires that will be used for the rotor, as well as for the stator. Make a special jumper that is limited using a tape. Those two wires that remained directly to the network.

Remember! When the motor is connected, which remained from the old washing machine to 220, the device immediately begins to rotate. Therefore, before you start work, make sure that the motor firmly stood on a particular surface.

Connection diagram of the old engine to the network 220

If you need to change the direction of revolutions, it will be enough that you will reincarnize the jumper to those contacts that remained. To enable and disable the device, you must connect the special buttons to the diagram. In order to implement this, you need to use the relevant schemes that can easily be found on special sites.

Now we know exactly how you can connect the engine so that it can still be used enough. But how can I enhance the device received?

Regulation turns

For good work, you need a revolution regulator

The engine washing machine is characterized by a rather high rotational speed, so it is desirable to make a special regulator to work the hammer to work in different speed modes without overheating. For this purpose, you can use the usual light intensity relay, but a little modified.

It is necessary to remove the simistor from the "Washing" together with the radiator - the so-called semiconductor device (in electrons control it functions as a controlled switch).
Then you need to have this device in the relay chip, replacing parts with low power. If you do not know all the nuances of this procedure, it is better to ask for help of a specialist (electronics or computer).

There are cases when the engine performs a new job without the help of the revolt controller.

Types of engine

Varieties of engines from stylish

Asynchronous. You can only remove it along with the condenser, which is completely different for each model of the washing machine. It is not recommended to break the connection of such an engine with the battery if its body is sealed and formed from various metal or plastic.

Attention! The asynchronous engine remove from the washing machine is allowed only when the capacitor is completely discharged, because it is possible to avoid shock.

Asynchronous motor

Low-voltage collector type motor. It is characterized by the presence of regular magnets on the stator, which are alternately connected to the current voltage current. On the case of such an engine there is a sticker on which the digit of the maximum allowable voltage is placed.
Electronic motor. This type of device must be disconnected only with the electronic power unit (ECU), on its body placed a sticker with the magnitude of the maximum allowable connection voltage. Pay attention to polarity, because engines with such a principle of work do not have the desired reverse.

Frequent breakdowns: what can be encountered

How to connect an electric motor from an old washing machine now is known. But there are situations where the motor does not start. What are the causes and ways to solve such trouble?

Try to check in what condition is the heating of the motor after its three-minute work. For such a short time, all items can not heat up the same, so you have the opportunity to identify the fault location that will be too heated. It can be a bearing assembly, stator, and so on.

Different malfunctions of Dvizhkov

The main reasons for which the item is too heard, may be the following:

closed or failed bearing;
excessively expanded capacitor capacitance.

Proper connection engine

To properly connect the engine, which remained from the old washer, a fairly minimum number of knowledge and a little effort. Also for this purpose uses a winding with the use of a multimer. To detect the desired wires, it is required to conduct a winding transk. This will make it possible to choose the desired pairs to connect. Everything is done very simple. Multimer connects to one wire, and the second end of the device stands in turn touch to other wires to find the desired pair. It is also worth fixing in advance which present the magnitude of the winding resistance. In the future, this information will be useful. After the end of the transve procedure, you should have 2 windings that would have different resistance indicators.

These windings are divided into two completely different types. One has an indicator of impedance. The second type of winding refers to the number of launchers. It is known that the resistance of the working winding should be less launched. In order for the motor from the washer to work fully need to use or a button, or a special start relay. As a button, you can even take the one that is installed for the doorbell. The main thing is that it does not have a fixed contact.

New life of an old motor - use for other purposes

The process of connecting the engine, which remained from the old washer is incredibly simple and easy. It is enough to find it proper and useful use. Then he can serve you for some time. You can experiment and make really useful equipment that will simplify your life in other areas. A little fantasy and skills are enough for everything to work out.

The main amount of washing machines have an electric manifold engine. The reverse passes due to the change in the switching of the rotor windings and the stator, which are alternately connected in different directions. In this case, the rotational speed parameter depends directly from the power and is regulated by the size of the corner cut-off of the voltage.

Principle of operation of an electric collector engine

Those who understand the principle of work of the collector engine, its launch will not seem to be an unbearable task. But we will briefly tell you to understand the essence of the problem.

Electric motor collector He has how much sections. This is a copper drum, broken by insulating jumpers on smooth rows. All sections have conclusions established clearly on opposite sides, that is, both brushes are suitable. When operating, one section receives power supply, and a field appears in the coil. Let's look at what this process leads to.

Direct connection of the rotor and stator

In this case the field is distributed Thus, that the shaft rotates clockwise. The charges of the same polarities of the rotor and the stator are repelled, and different - attract. When the section passes a certain distance in a circle, the brushes are moving to the next section, and it works. And so on, while there is a power supply.

If brushes connect to meet Stavor, The location of charges on the rotor will change to the opposite. The engine shaft in this case rotates counterclockwise. As in the first case, the same charges are attracted, and different departs.

As a rule, to change the rotation of the electric motor of the washing machine are set special power relays or contactors. If necessary, the rotor connects to the statisture, so that the reverse appears. For us, this means one thing: when the shaft rotates not as needed, then you need to change the direction of connecting the windings.

What does the connector and the electrical engine connector look like

Most often electric motor connector The washing machine is similar to that ordinary plastic connector, which is very familiar to the computer. It is quite simply connected, but it is almost impossible to disconnect it back. As a rule, a slotted screwdriver helps for this purpose. Both halves usually have 10 contacts, while their particular part is most often involved.

Two on the stator and the rotor, 4 terminals represent the end of the connector winding. Also from the fixed part of the middle is often removed. This makes it possible to implement various modes of engine operation. As a rule, speed control occurs by changing the corner cut-off of the voltage. What does it mean?

The speed of rotation of the electric motor

Which relative to the speed of rotation, then it can evaluate tacogenerator (This is even more tachometer). It is, by and large, the source of impulses, which follow simultaneously with the shaft, and it accounts for at least two connector outputs. But there is one small problem: in the tachogenerator scheme there are moving parts. And this is a huge drawback, in terms of reliability of equipment.

Therefore, as a rule, used hall Sensor. This is a so-called a plate of sensitive material that responds to an approximation of the magnetic electric field. Regarding the rotation speed of the shaft, the frequency of pulses passes. At the same time, the tablet can be stopped almost forever, since there is no mechanical contact here, as well as moving elements. The Hall Sensor is set not only to control the rotation speed of the shaft for the purpose of the washing function, it also participates in the weighing of the linen.

The meaning is that after soaking things watered, and the drum rotation speed will depend on the resulting weight. According to the specified formulas and schemes, the washing machine determines mass linen. Do not forget that the Hall sensor, as a rule, has three outputs:

two outputs are nutrition;
the third output - removes pulses.

overheat protection

In many electric motors there is protection against overheating. As a rule, it is implemented using the simplest thermal stitch. When overheating happens, the fuse simply fails. It accounts for two exits. They are necessary to regulate the integrity of the circuit of the electrical circuit. Control this may be the main processor.

Immediately the thermal consistency is often installed on the machine motor housing. Usually, the engine is manufactured for washing machines in such a way that something similar to the magnetic wire (a set of metal plates) appears along the contour. The thermal stitch can be or there, or under the insulation of the windings. For our task, it is not much important, if, naturally, do not be afraid that the electric motor will burn. In fact, it is using this chain that you need to connect the equipment. The thermal power consistent is obliged to be consistently with windings.

Connecting the electric motor

Now you have to understand where and what to connect in the scheme. As a rule, it is easier to find contacts brushes. You just need to ring them from graphite rods. At the same time, brushes are required to be extracted. Then the stator winding queue comes. There should be 12-35 ohm resistance, or in this limit. In a location where the thermal stuff is located, this may not be in principle: or the gap, or short circuit. What relative to the tachometer, then the situation will be similar. The principle of operation of this element is usually very simple.

Is there any definitely to know where the stator is exactly located? If the complete instance of the washing machine is under hand, then you can already say a lot about the diameter of the wires. Connecting the electric motor of the washing machine is made with a thick cable. At the same time, thin cords are used for sensors. The following feature is the relationship to the relay, which controls the direction of rotation of the shaft. Determine the direction of the posting. In addition, the color of Cambrick (braids) can be found a lot. So, when some color enters the stator, then most likely it is a winding.

We would also advise you to find the thermal stitch if it is installed. As a rule, its eligible case is hidden in Cambrick, and the side contacts are displayed out. There are other designs, but the meaning is that with the help of the tester, you can easily determine the necessary pins on the connector. And this greatly facilitates the task. In any case, do not forget that only 6 contacts are required, this is:

2 pieces for tachometer (Hall sensor, 3 pieces);
2 for windings of brushes and stator.

The thermal stitch is just an option, but usually it is. Also, if possible, we are exactly dealt with the layout, because to serve 220 volts to the speed sensor - the idea is not very good.

Asynchronous Engine Washing Machine

In this case, it is necessary to know that most often the control passes by switching windings, but fundamentally differently than was described above. As a rule, it is to wash and spin along a separate branch, but the starting coil for two directions is one. That is, here's an approximate set of contacts for the case of an asynchronous electric motor in a washing machine:

That is, contacts in this embodiment may be greater. Assessing the location of the schema elements, do not forget that the resistance of the starting windings will certainly exceed the working. And the values \u200b\u200bof the reverse and washing of the direct stroke will be the same. Connecting the motor is carried out in 220 volts (if the other is not specified in the instruction), the change in direction and speed is made using the power switching setting. In this case, use an asynchronous electric motor easier, before that there is no need to adjust the number of revolutions.

A small preface.

There are several homemade machines built on the basis of asynchronous engines from the old Soviet washing machines in my workshop.

I use engines with both "condenser" start and engines with launcheling and starting relays (button)

I did not arise any special difficulties with connection and launch.
When connected, I sometimes used an ohmmeter (to find starting and working windings).

But more often used his experience and method of "scientific tyk"%)))

Perhaps this statement on the wrath of the wrath of "knowledgeable", which "everything and always do on science" :))).

But I and this method gave a positive result, the engines were worked, the windings were not burned :).

Of course, if there is "how and what" - then you need to do "how correct" is me about the presence of a tester and measure the resistance of the windings.

But in reality, it is not always that it turns out, but "who does not risk ..." - Well, you understood :).

Why am I talking about this?
Literally yesterday I got a question from my viewer, I will give some points of correspondence, leaving only the essence:

I tried to run as you said through a starting relay, (briefly touched the wires) But after a while, he begins to smoke and warm up. I have no multimeter, so I can not check the resistance of the windings (

Of course, the method of which I will tell now - a little risky, especially for a person who has nothing to do with such work constantly.

Therefore, you need to be extremely attentive, and at the first to be able to check the results of the "scientific tyk" with the help of the tester.

Now to the point!

First, briefly tell about the types of engines that were used in Soviet washing machines.

These engines could be divided into 2 classes on the power and speed of rotation.

In the main mass of activator washing machines like "basic with a motor", for drive activator used engine 180 W, 1350 - 1420 rpm.

As a rule, this type of engine had 4 separate outputs(launcher and operating winding) and connected through putting-protective relay or (in very old versions) after a 3-pin photo button 1.

Photo 1 Pad button.

Separate conclusions of the launcher and working winding allowed get reversal(for different washing modes and preventing underwear).

To do this, a simple tapping unit that switches the engine connection was added in the later models.

There are 180 W engines, which have a launcher and working winding connected In the middle of the corpsAnd only three conclusions came to the top (photo 2)

Photo 2 Three output windings.

Second Type engines were used in the drive centrifuga, so he had large revs, but less power - 100-120 W, 2700 - 2850 rpm.

Centrifuges engines usually had permanent, worker capacitor.

Since the centrifuge was not necessary to reversal, the connection of the windings was usually done in the middle of the engine. The top went out only 3 wires.

Often in such engines winding the same, Therefore, the measurement of the resistance shows about the same results, for example, between 1 - 2 and 2 - 3, the output of the ohmmeter will show 10 ohms, and between 1 - 3 - 20 ohms.

In this case, the output 2 - will be the average point in which the conclusions of the first and second windings are converged.

The engine is connected as follows:
conclusions 1 and 2 - to the network, output 3 through the condenser on the output 1.

In appearance, activators and centrifuges are very similar, since often the same enclosures and magnetic pipelines were used to unification. The engines differed only by the type of windings and the number of poles.

There is a third option to start when condenser is connected only at the time of startBut they are quite rare, I didn't come across such engines on washing machines.

The mansion is the scheme of connecting 3 phase engines through the phase shifting capacitor, but I will not consider them here.

So, back to the method that I used, but before another little retreat.

Engines with launchers Usually have different parameters for starting and operating winding.

This can be defined as measuring resistance windings and visually - launcher winding has a wire little cross section and her resistance - above,

If you leave a launch winding included for a few minutes, she can overdo it,
as in normal operation it connects only for a few seconds.

For example, the resistance of the launcher can be 25 - 30 ohms, and the resistance of the working - 12 - 15 ohms.

During operation, the launcher - must be disabledotherwise, the engine will buzz, warm and quickly "let smoke".

If the windings are defined correctly, then when operating without loads within 10 - 15 minutes, the engine can be slightly warm.

But if confused Starting and working windings - the engine will also startAnd when the working winding is turned off - will continue to work.

But in this case he will also buzz, warm And do not give out due power.

And now we turn to practice.

First you need to check the status of the bearings and the absence of the skew of the engine covers. To do this, it is enough just to twist the engine shaft.
From light push, it should rotate freely, without jail, making several revolutions.
If everything is fine - go to the next stage.

We will need a low-voltage probe (battery with a light bulb), wires, electric fork and automatic (preferably 2x pole) for 4 - 6 amps. Ideally, an Ommeter with the limit of 1 MΩ.
Durable long half-meter lace - for the "starter", a greasy scotch and a marker for marking engine wires.

First you need to check the engine on circuit on the body Alternately checking the conclusions of the engine (connecting an ohmmeter or light bulb) between the outputs and the case.

Ommeter should show resistance within mom, light bulb not Must burn.

Next, fix the engine on the table, we collect the power circuit: the plug is a machine - the wires to the engine.
We label the conclusions of the engine, gluing flags from the scotch.

We connect the wires to the conclusions 1 and 2, we wind the lace on the motor shaft, turn on the power and pull the starter.
The engine - started :) We listen to how it works seconds 10 - 15 and turn off the plug out of the outlet.

Now you need to check the heating of the housing and covers. When "killed" bearings will be bashes covers (and heard increased noise during operation), and when problems with connection - more hot will be housing(Magnetic line).

If everything is in order - proceed on, and we carry out the same experiments with the conclusions 2 - 3 and 3 - 1 in pairs.

In the process of experiments, the engine will most likely work on 2 of the possible 3 connecting combinations - that is, on workers and on launched winding.

Thus, we find the winding on which the engine works with the lowest noise (hum) and gives power (for this we are trying to stop the engine shaft, pressing the tree to it. It will be a worker.

Now you can try to start the engine using the startup.
By connecting the power to the operating winding, you need to touch the third wire alternately touch one and different engine output.

If the starting winding is good - the engine must start. And if not, then "will choose the machine"%))).

Of course this method is not perfect, there is a risk of burning the engine: (and it can only be used in exceptional cases. But he kept me many times.

The best option of course will determine the type (brand) of the engine and the parameters of its windings and find the connection scheme on the Internet.

Well, this is such "Highest Mathematics";) And for the sim - allow you to declare.

A washing machine is an important attribute of any farm. However, a breakdown can occur, which cannot be repaired. Perhaps the farm has an old washing machine machine. Many know that its engine can be applied in everyday life, but not everyone can connect the electric motor from the washing machine.

Use options

The electric motor is a universal thing. It can be used both in everyday life as an emery for sharpening knives and other items and as construction equipment.

First of all, any construction implies the kneading. When pouring blocks, the cement-sandy mixture provides its precipitate. Specialized tools are expensive, and taking into account the prices for building materials to build their house becomes an almost unreal dream. However, with the help of an old electric motor from a washing machine, you can save on the purchase of equipment, since the motors of washing machines are quite powerful to perform the functions of a stationary concrete mixer or a vibrator for shrinkage of cement.

But before the start of operation of self-made equipment, you need to figure out how to connect the electric motor from the washing machine to 4 wires. There is nothing complicated in this, but it is worth treating all attentiveness. Otherwise, you can spoil the engine.

Connection

To connect to the network 220, the following tools and part will be needed:

Engine from the old washing machine machine (it is possible to use both domestic machines and Italian);
Multimeter for measuring resistance;
Plug for contacting wires with a socket;
Toggle switch or other switch;
The tape and the knife for stripping wires.

First of all, it is necessary to separate the pairs of wires from the combining plastic casing shown in the photo. To do this, they can simply be cropped at its base, but before it is desirable to remember their pairwise location from left to right. This is done to simplify the further finding pairs of wires.

It is necessary to immediately clarify that to connect the electric motor from the washing machine, you will need only 4 wires: 2 from the stator and 2 from the rotor brushes. But at the exit from the motor they are much more. Standard wires at the output 6-8, but depending on the model of the washing machine there may be up to 12 pieces.

The Italian Washing Machine, as a rule, has a distinctive feature, namely 8 outgoing wires, 4 of which come from the stator. However, it takes a refinement: 2 wires are departed from the thermostat and 2 from the stator itself. The last two and need to connect.

Usually wires intended for certain purposes are marked with a certain color. But it is better not to risk and already stripped ends check the multimeter.

For this, the device is set to measure resistance. Wires running from the tip will show 70 ohms. They are not needed for further connection, as they are a regulator of revolutions, but serve as a guide for further selection of steam.

After the found pair of the tip from left to right, the search for other wires is made.

There is a variant of the washing machine, where the stator has 3 wires. The third wire is an additional winding output. To connect to the 220 network, it is not required. Therefore, it is necessary to follow the described instructions for finding a pair.

After the pairs of wires are found, it is necessary to connect 1 wire from Statter and 1 wire from the ROTER brushes together. The remaining wires - with a fork. When turning on the engine will rotate in a specific side. When replacing contact 1 of the wire from the stator with the wire from the ROTER brush, the direction of motion of the engine will change.

For the convenience of changing the direction of movement of the Wires, you can run through the toggle switch. You can also use a switch that is suitable for a stationary installed engine from the washing machine. This will allow you to turn on and off the device without disconnecting the fork from the network.

Such a device has modern electric motors, including the Italian electric motor from the washing machine. However, the engine of the old washing machine is somewhat different. It does not have a large number of wires, but also to define them is not so simple.

How to connect an electric motor from the old washing machine?

The device of the old engine is similar to modern models, and the same 4 wires will need for work. As in the first case, a tester is needed for finding a pair. Applying it alternately to its probe to the wires, the pair will be quickly found.

Having found pairs, you need to install a startup and working winding.

The launcher is necessary to create an initial magnetic field or so-called torque.
The working winding creates a permanent magnetic field.

Determine the launcher simply. On a pair of wires responsible for it, resistance will be more than on the working pair.

Next, the wires are connected to the 220 V network and the closure of the launcher on the working. For this, the wire winding wires, as in the version with new washing machines, are powered by the network using a plug and socket. One launcher wire is isolated with one of the operating winding wires. The second wire is also powered by the outlet. The switch that is installed in a place where the wire from the working winding goes to the network.

If there is a need to change the direction of rotation of the engine, then you only need to change the launching wires in places.

As follows from the above, the principle of connecting the electric motor using 4 wires is similar on all models. Difficulties with primitive connection for the engine operation in one direction will not have anyone, since this requires knowledge of the physics of 8 class. But for more comfortable work with the device, the ability to switch the direction of rotation of the engine along the operation is indispensable. For this reason, it is recommended to install an additional toggle switch that switches the polarity of the launcher.

For a better understanding of all stages of connection, you can see this video, visually showing the connection of the electric motor from the washing machine.

Whatever high-quality household appliances, it over time comes into disrepair. The same fate awaits washing machines, but they can inhale the second life. It does not matter when household appliances were purchased, even the old Soviet Riga will go into the move. As the engine connection from the washing machine to other devices can simplify life, it will be described in detail further in the article.

Where you can apply the electric motor

The masters came up with dozens of motor uses from the old washing machine. But all of the same concept - due to the engine torque, run the operation of additional mechanisms. The most popular homemakes are the following options.

But before the start of the disassembly of its washing machine, it is necessary to know the type of electromotor there is a type. This will determine the scope of its application and the way of running from the mains.

Types of engines

Important! Only three varieties of motors are installed on washing machines: asynchronous, collector and straight (inverter).

Asynchronous

In the cars produced in the territory of the USSR (Riga-60, Vyatka-Avtomat), an asynchronous engine was installed. It consists of two parts: stator and rotor. Motor received its name due to inability to rotate synchronously with the magnetic field (constantly lagging behind). There are two options for an asynchronous engine: two- and three-phase. In old models (for example, Riga), two-phase motors were installed. But with the arrival of the new millennium, such engines almost stopped producing.

Asynchronous engine washing machine Vyatka

Main dignityasynchronous engine:

simple design;
service is reduced to replacing oil and bearings;
minimum noise level when working;
cheapness.

Disadvantages Electric motors of the washing machine Donbass and other old models are considered dimensions, great consumption of electricity and the complexity of the setting.

To get an asynchronous engine (for example, from the baby's washing), you will have to disassemble the entire case. Then weaken the mounting of the motor, remove the belt and disconnect the locking ring. After that, it remains only to remove the pulley from the shaft and disconnect the electrical pipelines with the clips.

Motor Motor Machine Machine

Collector

The collector electric motor gradually began to oust an asynchronous home appliance market. The main advantage of its design is the ability to work both from variable and from DC. The rotor speed is directly dependent on the supply voltage. In addition, similar motors are able to rotate in both directions. Collector electric motors are found in most household appliances. So, they can be found in the washing machines of the following models: Indesco, C.E.S.E.T., Welling, Selni, FHP, Sole, ACC.

Strong sides This device is:

a large number of revolutions;
smooth speed set;
compactness.

TO weaknesses You can take a short life.

Important! Often such engines break due to interstetic closure, that is, contacts on the rotor and collector contact. Therefore, the magnetic field is weakened, and the drum ceases to rotate.

Direct (inverter or uncommon) type of electric motors is found only in modern models of washing machines (for example, Indesit). This technology appeared on the market only ten years ago. Unlike previously mentioned designs, motor connected to the drum directly, without using intermediate parts.

TO pluses Inverter motor automatic attributes:

long service life;
wear resistance;
compactness.

Main minus - Horification of production, which seriously affects the price of the final product.

To remove the electric motor With a modern washing machine, you need to remove the back (typical for Indesit, Zanussi, Ariston) or front (characteristic samsung, bosch, lg) panel. If you only need to unscrew the bolts on the back wall, then you will have to remove the control panel, the base and the top cover. At the bottom of the typewriter and the engine will be located. To dismantle it, you need to remove the drive belt and disconnect the grounding and feed wire. Next, you need to unscrew the fastenings of the motor and remove the device, picing up the fine object. If all the screws are unscrewed, then you can use a little power, as the attachments are often sticking out.

Connection rules

When the type of motor installed on the old washer is determined, you can start connecting.

Tip! If you plan to use a powerful modern engine, you should remember such moments: it does not need capacitors for their work, the launcher will not need.

Before connecting the device with more than 3 conclusions to the network, you need to deal with wiring flowersemerging from the dispensing box:

often white winding means that these wires belong to the taegerer, in the future they will not be useful;
brown and red connected to the stator winding and rotor;
gray and green The wire belongs to graphite brushes.

Although this recommendation applies to most models, but are available specimens, where color may vary. To be confident in choosing, you need to call all the pairs using the tester and the multimeter. Those that go to the tachogenerator are characterized by resistance to 60-70 ohms.

Important! After connecting all the wires of the modern engine with 6 conclusions, you can check the performance of the device by connecting the automotive battery. When the voltage is submitted through the start relay, it will immediately (without acceleration) start rotating. If the check confirmed the effectiveness of the circuit, you can connect the motor to a 220-volt network, pre-firmly fixing the engine.

IN old engines 5 wires - one goes on grounding. The rest is easy to split into the pairs, just calling them. Now it is important to determine which pair refers to the launchAnd what a worker. Usually on start-up resistance above, and it is them that needs to be connected through the capacitor to the "SB" button. In order not to burn the engine, the button must be without a retainer, for this purpose you can use the doorbell. Sometimes in such engines at the exit three wires, it means that the two windings were connected at the factory.

For launch of the electric motor You need to press the button and hold it 1-2 seconds, and after the engine promotion, you should stop the voltage. When the motor can start working without load, it means that it will be launched without a capacitor. If in the old engine does not apply a starting winding, then you can change the direction of rotation.

New electric motorswashing machines are available at least with 5 conclusions, but they will not need all for launch. So, you can safely remove the three wires: two, going to the tahogenerator, and one connected to the thermal protection. The latter includes contact with "zero" resistance.

Further connection scheme The electric motor implies a voltage supply to the winding wire, a couple of which should be connected to the top brush. At the same time, the second brush is conjugated with the remaining pair of 220-volt wire. Now the engine is ready to start work. And to change the direction of rotation, you need to change the connections with brushes..

Rollover regulator

For speed adjustment you should use Dimmer (Usually it is used to change the brightness of the lighting). However, it is important to understand that the power of the regulator must exceed the power of the electric motor itself. The easiest way to choose a suitable device. But if there is enough skills and knowledge of electronics, you can try to get from the washing machine with the speed controller with a radiator. They need to be soldered into the available lighting regulator.

Possible problems when connecting and eliminating

If all the wires are connected correctly, but the engine of the washing machine after a few minutes of startup is turned offThe possible cause may be overheating. To determine the heating item, you need to start the engine for one minute. During this time, it will be time to warm up only a problem place. So you can understand that the node of the bearings, a stator or another item has failed. At the same time, it is not necessary to change the bearings, perhaps they were simply clogged, or not enough lubricant. If the reason for turning off the motor in the condenser, then it should be replaced with a smaller device.

When all the details are replaced, you need to start the engine for 5 minutes and check it out. Then the procedure should be repeated two more times, and only after that you can be confident in the performance of the electric motor.

Important! Sometimes an asynchronous engine can work too slowly. One of the reasons is a closure or bursting in the winding. In any case, such a motor is not suitable for further operation.

Having understood in the intricacies of connecting the motor from the old washing machine, you can easier your life and save the budget by making several universal tools. If you eliminate all malfunctions in the engine in time, then it will last a few more years. The main thing is to comply with safety techniques when working with electricity.
