Appliance Motor Source??

Guest
Hi Fellows,

I'm hoping there are some appliance techs out there who can help me
out.

I have a project in mind and would like to utilise an appliance motor
which I've had in storage for a few years. Problem is I no longer
recall what it is from or what the control module was like.

The motor is a open style square frame and has gold coloured windings
and has ten wires coming off the windings terminating in a square
plug. I suspect it was from a Fisher Paykel washing machine or even FP
dryer. It is a GE motor labeled 5SME22NJ028A but I've not found any
reference to these numbers.

I remember keeping it because an appliance guy i worked with once said
they had excellent speed control capabilities - I just cant recall
how?

That will teach me for not tagging things correctly - bugger.

Cheers,
Sam T

* What are you after - a matching control module for that weird code
numbered motor ???

That is a heck of a long shot.

Thanks Phil,

Yes it is a long shot - but I'm only after info about what the
possible devices were so I can see how it was wired up. I'll work the
rest out from there.

The motors are quite unique and any appliance tech who has been in the
game more than ten years will know what it is without too much
thought. Many of the appliances these motors were in were written off
due to the damage to both the control modules and motors as a result
of corrosion in the large square in-line plug which connected the
motor to the loom.

thanks anyway,
Sam T

** Odds are the drive module is not something one can make for oneself -
as now seems to be your idea. That appliance motor is an oversize stepper
motor and the module likely had an array of high power fets driven by a
custom micro.

whats hard about that? If you know what you are doing, its trivial. The
"custom micros" in early F&P washing machines (eg Gentle Annie) were
8049's.

Sam, if you get any decent data, care to bounce some my way?

** Begs the question of what is "decent data " and where it might come

In any case, watch out Sam - Given is short of a few screws.

If Given is short of a few screws what does that say about you Phil? You've
never had a screw in your life, let alone one to lose.

It apparently is a "Gentle Annie" electronic commutator system motor as used
by F&P. An F&P service agent of F&P themselves may be able to help. One of
the guys here at work has data at home *somewhere* but don't hold your
breath - he was disorganized before he moved house!

Cheers.

OK, I know what I'm doing, and am more than happy to provide any help
Sam might need, in exchange for data on the machine.

** Typical Kiwi fool's circular argument.



The "custom micros" in early F&P washing machines (eg Gentle Annie)

were

8049's.


** Which has no relevance at all.
only that an 8049 is hardly a "custom" micro. Hell, its even trivial to
read the software out of one (regardless of whether or not it is "locked")

Sam, if you get any decent data, care to bounce some my way?


** Begs the question of what is "decent data " and where it might come
from.
Wiring diagram, impedances, rated load, voltage & rpm etc.

In any case, watch out Sam - Given is short of a few screws.
yeah, only 2 a day, with a woman whose beauty would make you weep.

ROTFLMAO!

Hey Alan, seeing as crap-brain here has published your address, you
should do the same to him. Then we could make book on which enraged
usegroup participant offs him first.

hi, dont know if its of any use , but there is a article in the silicon chip
magazine about using a f and p motor as a wind generator ?
from a mo0nth or two back.
