Peerless Electric DG56D Motor
Greetings all:
I have come up with two Peerless DG56D motors. These are 1/2 hp, 48 VDC, split-series wound.
The armature has 24 positions. There are two brushes in the end cap. The stator windings measure about 1 ohm when seriesed, read with a analog (Simpson 260) meter.
How to remove the stator windings is not apparent, as the mounts are not bolted through the motor housing. They may be welded into place, or held in place by friction with the motor housing, which is welded together.
The question is: Is one ohm stator resistance 'good enough' to get us what we want from a UFO motor?
My plan is to drive a 5kw generator head with the motor.
Thanks for your input.
