Can the motor still be used after being exposed to rain?
1 Answers
Generally, if the motor gets wet but is not powered on, there won't be any issues, and it can still be used after drying. Below is relevant information: 1. Motor: A motor is an electromagnetic device that achieves the conversion or transmission of electrical energy based on the law of electromagnetic induction. In circuits, motors are represented by the letter M, and their main function is to generate driving torque, serving as a power source for electrical appliances or various machinery. Generators are represented by the letter G in circuits, and their main function is to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy. 2. Maintenance methods: Clean the stator and rotor, replace carbon brushes or other components, perform vacuum F-grade pressure varnishing, drying, and dynamic balance calibration. The operating environment should always be kept dry, the motor surface should remain clean, and the air intake should not be obstructed by dust, fibers, etc. When the motor's thermal protection repeatedly activates, it is necessary to determine whether the fault originates from the motor itself, overload, or if the protection device's setting value is too low. The motor can only be put back into operation after the fault is resolved.
