elvito Posted July 18, 2016 Posted July 18, 2016 Anyone know where to look for universal electronic motor in Bangkok? I am looking for a (not really small universal motor with 1/15 or 1/20 HP, 220V and RPM around 3000 - 5000. Attached is one example of what I am looking for. Thanks
Crossy Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 +1 on Chinatown, you're looking for a sewing machine motor or the likes. Should be a reasonably easy find. "I don't want to know why you can't. I want to know how you can!"
Thian Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 +1 on Chinatown, you're looking for a sewing machine motor or the likes. Should be a reasonably easy find. Or does he need an Aircon motor? Well also those are sold in Chinatown but don't buy a cheap brand. They do sell cheap quality products there as well, for a motor i would only buy a big brandname product. BKK needs a real big electro-market with ONLY elektro-stuff. And better not in Chinatown because the place is too crowded to travel to.
elvito Posted July 19, 2016 Author Posted July 19, 2016 Hi all. Thanks for the suggestion to look i Chinatown. However I remember some advice to look for electronic in Ban Mo. Are those same area?

A sewing machine motor might be suitable as long as it has higher amperage. So far I have only found sewing machine motor with 0,7 A. I need around 1.5A. Aircon motor RPM usually in the range 1000-1500 only, but will look at those also.

Aircon motor RPM usually in the range 1000-1500 only, but will look at those also. 1.5A is about 330W, approaching 1/2 a HP, your OP said you wanted 1/15 or 1/20 HP, which is it? Do you need to control the speed? I'm assuming from the fact you want a universal motor that you want to use a triac speed controller. What is your application? Yes, BanMo / Chinatown are basically the same area. "I don't want to know why you can't. I want to know how you can!"
Thian Posted July 20, 2016 Posted July 20, 2016 10 years ago i bought an aircon=fan motor with the scoopwheels. It run too fast so i bought a thai dimmer for 80 baht to let it run slower. Untill today it still works fine. It was a 3000 baht motor though. But if i were you i would search on internet for the right motor and buy it. If you look on ebay.de you can find used qualitymotors very cheap. Those are industrial quality motors who will last forever.
