LEESON 108050.00 C4D17NK9 / C4D17NK9D Low Voltage Motor, 0.33 HP, 24V, 1800 RPM

Leeson 108050.00 C4D17NK9 DC motor offer precise control over speed and torque, essential for processes requiring accurate adjustments. It is used in the automation, robotics and manufacturing industries. This direct current motor is preferred in battery-operated vehicles and electric vehicles due to its high power-to-weight ratio.

Working Mechanism:

• Leeson 108050.00 direct current permanent magnet motor operates through electromagnetism. It has an armature with a coil of wire, a commutator to reverse the current direction and brushes for contact.
• The interaction between the armature's current and the magnetic field from permanent magnets or field coils generates rotational force, propelling the motor. By regulating the current, its speed and torque are controlled for precision applications in robotics, automation and electric vehicles.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What is the significance of the commutator in this DC motor?

A. The commutator serves as a switch that reverses the direction of current in the armature coil as it rotates. This reversing current direction is crucial for maintaining continuous rotation.

Q. Can this motor operate without a permanent magnet?

A. Yes, the motor can operate without a permanent magnet by using field coils (electromagnets) to generate the necessary magnetic field. This design is commonly seen in larger DC motors.

Q. What maintenance is required for the brushes and commutator of this motor?

A. Regular inspection and replacement of brushes are necessary to ensure consistent electrical contact. The commutator may need occasional cleaning to prevent build-up of debris that could affect its operation.
