The seller says that it is indeed the 2.9 Amps for Unipolar, the motor has 8 wires. So, what does this mean for other wiring possibilities? Does this mean that in Bipolar series I will probably get the full torque? So does it go like this:
Unipolar : 2.9 A
Bipolar Series: 2.07A
Bipolar Parallel: 4.14A
Is that what this should be if 2.9A is the Unipolar rating?
Is there any way that you can tell for certain? (without taking the motor to the max and blowing it)?
Thanks. |
If the 2.9a unipolatr is correct, then those should be close to the correct numbers. If you know the motors rated voltage, you can figure out the current by checking the coils resistance. V/R = A. But, with an 8 wire motor, I believe you need to check the resistance of 2 coils wired in series or parallel and use that #, not the resistance between 2 wires.
If they are 2.07a series, then yes, you'll get full torque with the Xylotex at low speeds, but you'll have less torque at higher speeds than if running them parallel @ 4a. (But you can't do that with a Xylotex)
