I have one of the new cogless rotor and hub and now I need the shaft and shaft nut,would anyone have the part # for them? I will be ordering from F&P in the USA. I did get the rotor and hub from ,they deliverd right to my door in less then a weeks time.
I rewired to the 7p3p setup and hope to get it up and flying when the snow and cold weather are gone -20c
Thanks
Ken

All I have is this exploded view, but it doesn't show part numbers unfortunetly. You could take this to a supplier and say you want part 8 shown.

You said you have the new cogless rotor AND hub. Can you confirm that the rotor has 16 magnet tiles, and the stator has 36 poles. If so, then dont wire this as 7 phase, it wont work. The 7 phase conversion will only work for a new hub ( 16 magnet tiles ) and old stator ( 42 poles ). If it is a 16 magnet hub and 36 pole stator, rewire as 3 phase.

If you need any help with that please let me know.

Hi there Ken
Check out this site, Sears in states. the model # is, 11027082600. I'm afraid the new set up they have doesn't have a drive shaft, it seems the motor connects directly to the agitator, shipping from NZ???? call the loan officer now

Hi Guys

This is gonna sound like a stupid question but does anyone know where I can buy an F&P motor from new and roughly how much it would cost? ( For a Future project )

Another Silly question Does anyone Know what maximum power output they get from there unit?

Any Help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Hello Christian.

The partNo's and cost are back in my post's a couple of months--think under New stator or F&P part No's-have a look ,pls.

From my observations and under actual windmill operation, I'm going to stick my head out and say the new Staor and Rotor are fairly dismal-from what I've been getting -only a few watts to maybe 150 in a strong wind, with direct drive and powered by 11 blade @ 45 feet.

I think you are around my area, you are welcome to come on up to Mt.Tamborine and look at the system and the way I've re-connected 5 of the stators-
( I'm going to go back to my 1:1.3 geared belted drive and the original stators confirured into 7 phase with the new magnetic rotor ,see if the extra rpm's make a diff. )

Hope this helps

Hi rotohed

Your in Australia ( I think ) so its pretty easy to get hold of a F&P. First up go for the 2nd hand option, visit the dump and see if they have a collection of white goods, or contact your local white goods repair centers. Once you get a relationship established with a repairer, you can usually pick up a complete dead washing machine for a carton of beer.

Also check out ebay, the motors pop up on there from time to time.

Or you can but new, the hub and stator can be picked up for about $150, depending on how much markup the agent puts on their spare parts.

Max power depends on your application. In a windmill application, 300 watts is the expected power for a standard magnet hub on a 2 meter prop. With Neo conversions this can go over 600, but these conversions are still in developement, there are no plans as such.

Hi guys

Thanks for the help! Yeah I live in Au I live in Sheldon and my farther and I have our electronics manufacturing workshop in Thornlands About 30 seconds from the F&P manufacturing plant in Cleveland.

Yeah Bruce I would like to come and see your setup one day don't know when I'd get the chance though.

I'd like to try to organize it sometime in the next couple of months.

I think I found the part number is this correct
Part No. 420 774 P Hub
Part No. is 420775P Stator

Cheers

Those are the right No. for the new hub and stator.
