Oriental Motor's small standard motors are operated by AC input power. Connect the provided capacitor to single-phase motors.

Direction of Rotation

Clockwise (CW) direction of rotation, as referred to in the motor wiring diagrams, is defined as the direction of rotation when viewing the mounting face end of the motor. When a motor is used with a gearhead connected, the direction of rotation of the gearhead output shaft may be the same or the opposite of the direction of rotation of the motor, depending on the gear ratio. To set the rotation direction of the gearhead output shaft required, or to change the rotation direction of the motor, do as shown below.

Change the direction of rotation of single-phase motors only after the motor comes to a complete stop. If an attempt is made to change the direction of rotation while the motor is rotating, the motor may ignore the reversing command or change its direction of rotation after some delay.

The connection diagrams below are general. For details, refer to theindividual product information.
