Two Speed Motors

Two speed electric motors can have either two separate windings or a Dahlander winding. Two separate windings allow for different pole numbers and speed ratios, while Dahlander winding is limited to ratios like 2:4, 4:8, or 6:12. Connection types for the windings include Delta/Delta, Wye/Wye, and Delta/Wye. An engine room blower motor was rewound, having a two separate winding consisting of a 6-pole and 12-pole configuration in 72 slots. The rewinding process involved removing the existing windings, cleaning the slots, reinserting new windings in the proper patterns, and testing before reassembly.

 Two Speed motors

Two speed electric motors are usually divided into two main groups.

1. Two separate winding.


2. Dahlander winding.

Two separate winding motor has many desired different polarities which offers the possibility of
different speed ratios. With the dahlander winding, it is only possible to reach a pole number ratio of
for example 2:4, 4:8 or 6:12. The power ratings of two speed winding can be very different within
certain limits which are determined by the torque or power at a certain speed of the driven machine or
device by the motor. In some applications the required torques and powers are identical to each other
at different motor speeds for example milling and turning machine applications, also in some
applications the required torques and powers can be different for example fan applications.

The connection types of ∆/∆, Υ/Υ, ∆/Υ can be applicable in two separate windings. On the other
hand, the connection type of ∆/ΥΥ at the same torque of both low speeds and type of Υ/ΥΥ at low
torque of high speeds can be applied in the dahlander windings.

1. Two separate winding.


 Connection Υ/Υ

 Connection ∆/∆

2. Dahlander winding.
 Connection ∆/ΥΥ
 Connection Υ/ΥΥ
Engine room blower motor came to electrical workshop for rewinding. It had a two separate windings
consist of 6 poles and 12 poles. That motor consists of 72 slots.

Rewinding steps as follows.

1. Remove the fan, end covers and rotor of the motor.


2. Observe and note down the winding pattern, coil span, no of slots, no. of poles of the inner
winding.
3. Disconnect the lead wires from motor terminal.
4. Remove the inner winding and take down the number of wires inside the slot.
5. Observe and note down the winding pattern, coil span, no of slots, no. of poles of the outer
winding.
6. Remove the inner winding and take down the number of wires inside the slot.
7. Clean properly the slots and rotor using high pressure hot water and bake in the oven.
8. Insert HT papers to the slots for insulation.
9. Rewind the coil sets and insert the outer coli set to the slots as per the pattern of the stator coil.
10. Insert wedges to the slots.
11. Insert the inner coli set to the slots as per the stator inner coil pattern.
12. Insert wedges to the slots.
13. Take the leads wires out and connect to the terminal.
14. Apply slack to the stator winding and bake in the oven for around 12 hours.
15. Remove the unnecessary slack in the stator.
16. Assemble back the motor.
17. Trial run carry out in the workshop.
