Hey,
Few weeks back I picked up a 500v 33amp continuous ge dc motor that was rebuilt. (See picture) wondering if this is going to be too much of a project for me. Not seeing a lot (lol none) others using dc motors this size, the output shaft is an inch and 5/8 wide. Has six wires coming out of it, two temp (assuming, just shows resistance, thin wire), two tac (assuming, just shows oc, thin wire) and windings (large wire) Oddly can’t find the picture of the nameplate on it to post. I’ll get it tomorrow.
I’ve six half bridge IGBT’s modules that are rated for 1200v 100amps from some vfd’s. Figured I’d try to copy the controller Damien Maguire used on this 1000 conversion, adjusted for the different motor size.
Anyway, does that seem a little much for a first ev go? I can get a clark 2774337 in the same condition, for pretty cheap, and there’s a lot more information on conversions with that size motor. But then, bigger is always better 🤔🤔🤔 right ?
Thanks!
