How do I reverse a single phase motor?

Last updated 3 days ago

AmTecs single phase motors can be reversed by re-arranging connections to their


terminals.

Motors are normally supplied from the factory wired for clock-wise rotation when
looking at the shaft. Moving the links to the alternative position will result in the motor
running the opposite direction.

Below is a diagram showing the position of the links for either forward or reverse
direction.

The below circuit shows a basic diagram of how to implement switching between
both forward and reversing of a single phase motor.
The reversing contactor is double pole double throw (DPDT) and the main contactor
is a double pole single throw.
Note:It is important to not change the direction whilst the motor is running.
