Motor Control and PFC dev Kit

Hi,

 

I am currently using the Motor Control + PFC dev kit (TMDS1MTRPFCKIT) I wish to know the number of poles on the supplied motor. I tried looking up the data sheet, but it does not mention it.

 

The motor is Anaheim Automation BLDC (BLY172S-24-4000)

  • I believe it is a 8-pole machine - manufacturer website should have a detail datasheet. Also, the example code which comes with the kit must have used pole information - you can also check any available definition header file.

  • Manas,

    The supplied Anaheim Automation motor has 8 poles.  This information and other motor parameters including stator resistance, etc are found in the 2xPM_Motors-Settings.h file. Simply editing this header file with a different motor's parameters would allow you to customize the project to spin a different motor.


    Thank you,
    Brett
